  • Patent number: 12228730
    Abstract: A two-dimensional exit pupil expansion method for waveguide display based on polarization volume gratings (PVGs) is provided. Based on the polarized diffraction properties of the PVGs as waveguide coupling elements, a light beam from a microimage source system is introduced into and then propagates in a waveguide medium. By a composite PVG structure, a light field of a transmitted image is subjected to two-dimensional exit pupil expansion and emission, and finally incident into human eyes to achieve waveguide augmented reality imaging.

  • Patent number: 11791749
    Abstract: In an example, an energy harvesting system includes a support apparatus and a piezoelectric element. The piezoelectric element may be configured as a plate supported at its periphery by the support apparatus to enable a central portion of the piezoelectric element to move along an axis that is orthogonal to a contact surface of the plate. A body having a mass is configured to move in a direction that is substantially parallel to the axis of the plate and apply force to deform the contact surface of the plate, such that electrical energy is generated by the piezoelectric element based on the applied force.
