Abstract: Some examples of the disclosure are directed to systems and methods for selectively displaying an image of a portion of a physical environment of an electronic device with enhanced visibility. In some examples, the image is displayed overlaid on a portion of a view of the physical environment. In some examples, the electronic device displays the image in accordance with one or more first criteria being satisfied. In some examples, the electronic device forgoes displaying the image in accordance with the one or more criteria not being satisfied.

Abstract: A head-mounted device may be used to perform a visual search on a physical environment around the head-mounted device. A user may wish to visually search one out of multiple physical objects in the physical environment. To clearly show the user which physical object was the target of a visual search, the head-mounted device may present a thumbnail of the candidate physical object on a display. The thumbnail may be cropped and/or zoomed using an image from a camera on the head-mounted device. By displaying a thumbnail that is taken by a camera on the head-mounted device, the thumbnail will directly match the physical object in the user's physical environment, eliminating ambiguity regarding which physical object is the subject of the visual search.

Abstract: Some examples of the disclosure are directed to systems and methods for minimizing display of an object from a maximized state to a minimized state in a three-dimensional environment. In some examples, an electronic device presents a computer-generated environment that includes a virtual object displayed in a maximized state in the three-dimensional environment. While displaying the three-dimensional environment, the electronic device detects that a first event has occurred. In response to detecting that the first event has occurred, in accordance with a determination that the first event satisfies one or more criteria, the electronic device displays the virtual object in a minimized state in the three-dimensional environment from a viewpoint of a user of the electronic device. In accordance with a determination that the first event does not satisfy the one or more criteria, the electronic device maintains display of the virtual object in the maximized state from the viewpoint.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a transceiver and a controller in communication with the transceiver. The controller is configured to determine a target lighting condition in a room relative to a current lighting condition in the room. The controller is also configured to generate a control signal with instructions to adjust an ambient lighting peripheral in the room based on the determined target lighting condition. The control signal is provided to the transceiver for transmission.

Abstract: Disclosed is an optical-modulation object, including birefringent island-in-the-sea yarns, whose island portions are grouped, based on two or more spinning cores, in a matrix. The optical-modulation object causes formation of an optical modulation interface between island portions and sea portions, thus maximizing optical modulation efficiency, as compared to conventional birefringent island-in-the-sea yarns.

Abstract: Disclosed is a liquid crystal display device, provided with an optical-modulation film including a matrix and birefringent island-in-the-sea yarns having two or more spinning cores arranged in the matrix to considerably reduce production costs and remarkably increase luminance. The optical-modulation film includes birefringent island-in-the-sea yarns whose island portions are grouped based on two or more spinning cores, present in the matrix, thus causing formation of optical modulation interfaces between the island portions and sea portions, thus maximizing optical modulation efficiency, as compared to conventional birefringent fibers.

Abstract: Disclosed is a luminance-enhanced film. The luminance-enhanced film includes an intermediate layer comprising a birefringent island-in-the-sea yarn and a sheet laminated on both sides of the intermediate layer, wherein the interface between the intermediate layer and the sheet has an air-gap area ratio of 5% or less, and is characterized in that it is substantially free of curling and does not contain bubbles, thus exhibiting considerably superior optical efficiency and adhesion force. A liquid crystal display utilizing the luminance-enhanced film also advantageously exhibits considerably improved luminance.

Abstract: Disclosed is a spinneret for preparing island-in-the-sea yarns, wherein island ingredient supply channels are partitioned into a plurality of groups in a discharge portion. The island-in-the-sea yarns prepared using the spinneret can prevent aggregation of island portions in the center thereof, although the number of island portions is 500 or more. Accordingly, island-in-the-sea yarns are considerably advantageous for the preparation of microfibers, since 500 or more island portions can be disposed in one island-in-the-sea yarn and fineness of island portions can thus be reduced. In addition, the island-in-the-sea yarns have an advantage of considerably reduced production costs, since 500 or more microfibers can be produced from one island-in-the-sea yarn. Furthermore, the island-in-the-sea yarns render a specific color according to the ratio of sea portions to island portions and diameter of fibers, without adding chromogenic compounds such as dyes, and are thus applicable to photochromic fibers.

Abstract: Disclosed is a luminance-enhanced film, including birefringent island-in-the-sea yarns which comprise island portions and sea portions, each composed of a specific material. Accordingly, unlike conventional stack-type luminance-enhanced films, the luminance-enhanced film of the present invention comprises birefringent island-in-the-sea yarn, as a layer, in the sheet, thus considerably improving luminance without forming a plurality of layers. In addition, several hundred layers are not laminated on one film and the film can be easily fabricated at considerably reduced costs. Furthermore, the luminance-enhanced film has considerably more birefringent interfaces, as compared to films fabricated by conventional methods wherein birefringent fibers are incorporated into sheets, thus considerably improving luminance-enhancement effects and being industrially applicable.

The luminance-enhanced film causes formation of an optical modulation interface between island portions and sea portions, thus maximizing optical modulation efficiency, as compared to conventional birefringent island-in-the-sea yarns. The birefringent island-in-the-sea yarns of the present invention are free of aggregation of island portions in the center thereof, although the number of island portions is 500 or more. As a result, the birefringent island-in-the-sea yarns maximize an optical modulation interface area, and thus considerably improve optical modulation efficiency, as compared to conventional birefringent island-in-the-sea yarns including one spinning core.
