  • Publication number: 20220244537
    Abstract: An optical assembly includes a prism having a cubical structure, and first, second, third, and fourth imaging devices arranged symmetrically with the prism as a center and each including a lens. The lenses of the first, second, third, and fourth imaging devices are arranged at four sides of the prism, respectively. The optical assembly further includes an image display. The image display outputs light to the first imaging device. The prism performs optical path conversion on the light after the light passes through the lens of the first imaging device, so that the light is output after passing through the lenses of the second, third, and fourth imaging devices.

  • Patent number: 9953592
    Abstract: The application provides a display component and an electronic device using the display component. The display component comprises: a light source unit configured to emit source light; a polarization unit configured to at least partially convert the source light into a first polarized light with a first polarization direction; a first reflecting unit configured to at least partially convert the first polarized light into a first reflected light on a first reflective surface; and a display unit configured to receive the first reflected light and adjust the first reflected light to become initial light by adding information of an image to be displayed into the first reflected light.
