  • Patent number: 11933978
    Abstract: An optical system that reduces reflections from an electronic display is provided herein. The optical system may include an electronic display; and a light directing medium configured to steer a plurality of viewing cones into an eye motion box facing said display so that said viewing cones overlap at least partially at the eye motion box plane, wherein a viewing cone is a geometric location only within which a viewer can see light coming from said electronic display.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10755658
    Abstract: A display device comprising: a plurality of pixels, each pixel including at least one sub-pixel; each sub-pixel comprising: a drivable visual segment, being operative to exhibit at least a first visible state and a second visible state; a first electrical potential setting section coupled with the drivable visual segment and with a first select terminal and a first data terminal, the first electrical potential setting section being operative to drive the drivable visual segment, at least from the first visible state to the second visible state; a second electrical potential setting section coupled with the drivable visual segment and with a second select terminal and a second data terminal, the second electrical potential setting section being operative to drive the drivable visual segment, independently from the first electrical potential setting section, at least from the first visible state to said second visible state.

  • Patent number: 9619070
    Abstract: A hybrid optical-physical touch screen is provided herein. The touch screen includes: an electronic panel display; one or more optical sensors coupled to the electronic panel display and configured to determine, a spatial location of a physical object on an X-Y plane near the electronic panel display; a plurality of physical touch sensors coupled to the electronic panel display and configured to determine, a physical touch event between the physical object and the electronic panel display; and a processor configured to compare the determined spatial location of the physical object with the determined physical touch event between the physical object and the display at a same time, and determine, based on predefined parameters, whether an intentional physical touch event between the physical object and the electronic panel display has occurred.

  • Patent number: 9601064
    Abstract: A display that supports full redundancy on its array of pixels is provided herein. The display includes an array of wired rows and columns of liquid crystal display (LCD) cells; a primary driver set that includes a plurality of LCD drivers each connected via a respective primary switch to a first end of the wired row or a first end of the wired column; and a secondary driver set that includes a plurality of LCD drivers each connected via a respective secondary switch to a second end of the wired row or a second end of the wired column, wherein the primary switches and the secondary switches are mutually exclusive so that whenever the primary switches are open the secondary switches are closed and vice versa.
