  • Publication number: 20230229001
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing pixelated occlusion is disclosed. The apparatus includes a display, a unitary and transmissive optical component, and a contact lens. The display provides a display image. The unitary reflective and transmissive optical component receives the display image and forms a reflected display image having a first polarization and receives a scene image and forms a transmitted scene image.

  • Publication number: 20220414921
    Abstract: A gaze tracking system includes a contact lens, a photodetector element, a light conditioning element and electronics. The contact lens includes a fiducial having a position. The photodetector element receives a light signal from the fiducial and provides a photodetector output signal. The light signal provides a light intensity pattern at the photodetector. The optical conditioning element receives the light signal and provides a variation in the light intensity pattern on the photodetector in response to changes in the position of the fiducial. And the electronics process the photodetector output signal to calculate the position of the fiducial. A method includes detecting a light signal from a fiducial included in a contact lens, and tracking the contact lens by analyzing the light signal.
