Abstract: A gaze virtual object is displayed that is selectable based on attention directed to the gaze virtual object to perform an operation associated with a selectable virtual object. An indication of attention of a user is displayed. An enlarged view of a region of a user interface is displayed. A value of a slider element is adjusted based on attention of a user. A user interface element is moved at a respective rate based on attention of a user. Text is entered into a text entry field in response to speech inputs. A value for a value selection user interface object is updated based on attention of a user. Movement of a virtual object is facilitated based on direct touch interactions. A user input is facilitated for displaying a selection refinement user interface object. A visual indicator is displayed indicating progress toward selecting a virtual object when criteria are met.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a computer system facilitates depth conflict mitigation for a virtual object that is in contact with one or more physical objects in a three-dimensional environment by changing visual properties of one or more portions of the virtual object. In some embodiments, a computer system facilitates depth conflict mitigation for a virtual object that is in contact with one or more physical objects in a three-dimensional environment by displaying the virtual object in a virtual environment within the three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, a computer system facilitates depth conflict mitigation for a virtual object that is in contact with one or more physical objects in a three-dimensional environment by variably changing visual properties of one or more portions of the virtual object and/or by variably displaying the virtual object in a virtual environment based on one or more characteristics of the depth conflict.

Abstract: A laser printer is disclosed which is adapted to be used for color imaging. The printer comprises three diode lasers, each of which emits at a different wavelength. Each laser beam is passed through an apodizing mask to trim the final spot size. The beams from the three lasers are combined by the use of dichroic mirrors to form one combined beam. The combined beam is shaped by two spherical mirrors and is scanned onto a receiving medium by a polygon. The receiving medium is sensitive to the infrared, and the diode lasers are selected to obtain the widest possible spectral separation in the light beams from the lasers.

Abstract: A fiber optic array is disclosed for use in an optical scanning device. The array includes a substrate and a plurality of optical fibers arranged on the substrate to form a linear array of the fibers. Each of the fibers is received in grooves in the substrate to precisely space the fibers relative to each other. Each of the fibers is adapted to receive light from a source such as a laser diode. In order to increase the packing density of the fibers in the array, the ends of the fibers are etched to decrease the cladding diameter, and the fiber ends of reduced diameter are mounted in closely-spaced parallel grooves.

Abstract: An acoustooptic deflection cell diffracts a multi-color beam into a plurality of different mono-color beams of distinct scan angles. An optical system intercepts the diffracted light beams, equalizes the differenct scan angles and realigns the beams to register at an image plane. Equalization of the scan angles may be accomplished by a prism system, while realignment may be done with a mirror system.
