    Date of Patent: June 2, 2020
    Assignee: North Inc.
    Inventors: Patrick Gerard McGlew, Nicolas Abele, Alexandre Fotinos
  • Publication number: 20190212558
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices and methods to provide an appodized holographic combiner lens having a varying reflectivity profile. In particular, a lens to reflect light from a number of input pupils to a number of exit pupils may be provided, where the lens reflects incident light in varying levels based on where on the lens the light is incident.

  • Patent number: 10289196
    Abstract: An ocular control system arranged to determine electric potentials associated with a set of sensor. The ocular control system may determine direction of gaze or motion based on the determined electric potentials. The determined direction of gaze or motion may be used to provide data input for a computing device.

  • Patent number: 10067344
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are apparatus, devices, and methods to provide a modified-transmissivity zone on a projection surface used to generate a virtual image superimposed onto a real-world view. In particular, a variable-transmissivity material may be provided in the projection surface. The transmissivity of variable-transmissivity material may be modified responsive to application of a stimulus. A stimulus source may be configured to selectively apply a stimulus to the variable-transmissivity material to generate a discrete modified-transmissivity zone on the projection surface.

  • Patent number: 9784967
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices and methods to generate a drive signal to actuate a MEMS mirror system. A controller can generate the drive signal to comprise a modified square wave voltage waveform comprising a tri-stated portion, an attenuated portion, or a tri-stated and an attenuated portion to suppress a number of harmonics in a response of the MEMS mirror system to the drive signal.

  • Publication number: 20170178288
    Abstract: Techniques to pre-warp an image based on an image warping map comprising a number of cells where each cell corresponds to a polynomial approximation for a number of corresponding pixels to be warped are described. An image warping map can be generated by partitioning a per pixel warping map into cells and approximating the pixel movements of each cell with a polynomial function.

  • Patent number: 8250309
    Abstract: A data processor comprising: a control register operable to store a cache control value; and data accessing logic responsive to a data access instruction and to said cache control value to look for data to be accessed in a cache if said cache control value has a predetermined value and not to look for said data to be accessed in said cache if said cache control value does not have said predetermined value.

  • Patent number: 7328391
    Abstract: A cache memory includes error bits corresponding to each line of data. An error detecting circuit uses these error bits to detect if a soft error has occurred within the data of a cache line. If such an error has occurred, then the line may be refilled from the main memory or some other action taken, such as a write back or generation of a soft error abort signal.
