  • Patent number: 12111462
    Abstract: A light display system may display an image to a user and/or an audience using a persistence of vision effect. In an embodiment, a light display system includes a light source configured to emit a plurality of light patterns that correspond to multiple frames of an image. The light source is configured to sequentially emit the plurality of light patterns based on instructions from a control system such that the multiple frames are presented in a sequence at a first rate. The light display system also includes an image expander configured to reflect the plurality of light patterns toward a user of the head-mounted device, wherein at least a portion of the image expander is configured to rotate relative to the light source at a second rate that is coordinated with the first rate by the control system to thereby display the image for visualization by the user.

  • Patent number: 10169891
    Abstract: An example method of generating three-dimensional visual objects representing a person based on two-dimensional images of at least a part of the person's body may include receiving a first polygonal mesh representing a human body part, wherein the first polygonal mesh is compliant with a target application topology. The example method may further include receiving a second polygonal mesh representing the human body part, wherein the second polygonal mesh is derived from a plurality of images of a person. The example method may further include modifying at least one of the first polygonal mesh or the second polygonal mesh to optimize a value of a metric reflecting a difference between the first polygonal mesh and the second polygonal mesh.
