  • Low profile depth camera
    Patent number: 9729853
    Abstract: The use of one or more angled or curved and diverging light pipes or reflectors placed in a light source's, e.g. diode's, emission path at appropriate distances, angles and divergence, such that a diode's emission spot size is modified and or redirected from the diode's natural emission path to alternative planes at angle to the diode's natural emission path so that a diode emission safe spot size can be achieved on any plane at angle to the original diode natural emission path at minimum distances from the diode's point of emission.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 1, 2013
    Date of Patent: August 8, 2017
    Assignee: Lumentum Operations LLC
