Abstract: A method of providing full array local dimming to a display comprises performing an image processing algorithm with a processor having instructions for: determining a new pixel value for each of a plurality of pixels of the image, mapping the new pixel value to a prior pixel value for each of the plurality of pixels, scaling the image of the zone bilinearly, repeating the determining mapping and scaling until an approximation value is reached, compiling the repeated results into a data set. The method also includes dividing an image for the display having into a plurality of zones each having at least one LED associate therewith and making an illumination decision from the data set, where the illumination decision is for the at least one LED associated with one of the plurality of zones.

Abstract: A LiDAR sensor includes a light emitter, a spatial light modulator positioned to direct light from the light emitter into a field of illumination, and a light detector having a field of view overlapping the field of illumination. The LiDAR sensor includes a controller programmed to identify an area of interest based on light detected by the light detector in a previous subframe and adjust the spatial light modulator to direct light into the field of illumination at an intensity that is greater at the area of interest than at an adjacent area of the field of view.

Abstract: A head up display assembly includes an optical system (52) and a transmissive display. A light source is configured to projected a light through the transmissive display. A diffuser (64) is located between the optical system and the transmissive display (62).

Abstract: A method of providing image includes obtaining at least one first image of a surrounding area (52) from a first camera (26, 33, 38A, 38B, 40A, and 40B). At least one second image of the surrounding area (52) is obtained from a second camera (26, 33, 38A, 38B, 40A, and 40B). The at least one first image is fused with the at least one second image to generate a three-dimensional model (51) of the surrounding area (52). A first image (54A) of the three dimensional model is provided to a display by determining a first position of an operator. A second image (54B) of the three-dimensional model is provided to the display by determining when the operator is in a second position to simulate motion parallax.

Abstract: Various embodiments of an augmented reality alignment system and method are disclosed. An exemplary alignment system and method therefor may correct for image misalignment, distortion, and image deflection of graphic images that are projected within an operator's field of view. The alignment system may be configured to consider a number of dynamic and static error factor inputs in real time such that when a graphic image is projected, the graphic image is substantially aligned with the real-world target it is intended to overlay and the graphic image is displayed substantially free of distortion.
