Publication number: 20260124808Abstract: A method of volumetric additive manufacturing, comprising rotating a vial of photocurable resin; creating patterns of structured light images of an object to be manufactured so that the shape of the light dose distribution matches a desired shape of the object; correcting for diffusion within the vial; projecting the patterns of structured light images via a projector onto the rotating vial of photocurable resin thereby printing the object corrected for diffusion; and removing the printed object from the vial.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2023Publication date: May 7, 2026Inventors: Antony ORTH, Daniel WEBBER, Yujie ZHANG, Guy GODIN, Jonathan BOISVERT, Chantal PAQUET

Publication number: 20260102975Abstract: A method and apparatus are set forth for volumetric additive manufacturing (VAM) wherein light rays that are used to determine tomographic projections are modelled using ray tracing, in order to account for projector non-telecentricity and etendue in all three dimensions. The path of rays from each light source (e.g. pixel) are computed as they propagate through the VAM system. Optical effects such as refraction, transmission loss, absorption, etendue, and non-telecentricity are intrinsically accounted for via ray tracing. Using these rays, the required dose to solidify the photosensitive resin is computed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2023Publication date: April 16, 2026Inventors: Daniel WEBBER, Antony ORTH, Yujie ZHANG, Michel PICARD, Chantal PAQUET, Jonathan BOISVERT

Publication number: 20260078270Abstract: A volumetric additive manufacturing (VAM) process for producing a solid object having a surface layer of a multifunctional material patterned thereon involves: contacting a surface of a solid base object with a liquid composition containing a photo-initiator and a multifunctional material covalently graftable to the surface of the solid base object; and, selectively irradiating the composition at the surface of the solid base object with patterned light, the irradiating being tomographic, to initiate covalent grafting of the multifunctional material to the surface of the solid base object to pattern only a portion of the surface of the solid base object with a layer of the multifunctional material grafted thereon, where the portion of the surface of the solid base object corresponds to the selectively irradiated surface of the solid base object.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2023Publication date: March 19, 2026Inventors: Yujie ZHANG, Kathleen SAMPSON, Thomas LACELLE, Arnold Jason KELL, Antony ORTH, Daniel WEBBER, Xiangyang LIU, Chantal PAQUET, Bhavana DEORE

Patent number: 12120469Abstract: A multiplexed light field projector device and a multiplexed light field display to output a light field image is described. The projector has a projector base with a projection optical system configured to output light rays to form a projected image, a collimating optical system configured for collimation of the projected image light rays to form a second projected image, which is directed to a display optical system to produce a light field image. Light field projector devices or alternative projector devices may be used individually or in combination with one or more other projectors which can be arranged to form a multiplexed direct projection light field display. The arrangement of projector devices may have an individual or shared display optical system.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2023Date of Patent: October 15, 2024Assignee: Avalon Holographics Inc.Inventors: Jordan Peckham, Daniel Webber, Wally Haas

Patent number: 12117623Abstract: A direct projection light field display comprising an array of projectors for direct projection of a light field. The overall design and incorporation of additional optics achieve the optimal light distribution and small pixel size to produce a high definition, 3D display. The architecture of the direct projection light field display has low a brightness requirement for each projector, resulting in an increased projector density, decreased system, and a decreased power requirement, while producing a high-definition light field.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2023Date of Patent: October 15, 2024Inventors: Jordan Peckham, Daniel Webber
