  • Publication number: 20230341815
    Abstract: Techniques related to generating holographic images for a holographic heads up display are discussed. Such techniques include application of a machine learning model to the target image to generate data that is used to enable the determination of a phase pattern via an iterative propagation feedback model. The iterative propagation feedback model is used to generate a feedback strength value, which is then used to generate a phase diffraction pattern for presentation at a holographic plane of the heads up display.

  • Patent number: 11573528
    Abstract: Techniques related to generating holographic images are discussed. Such techniques include application of a machine learning model to the target image to generate data that is used to enable the determination of a phase pattern via a wave propagation model. The wave propagation model is used to generate holographic data, which is then adjusted according to one or more constraints associated with the holographic display that will be used to generate a holographic image based on the adjusted holographic data.

  • Publication number: 20180184074
    Abstract: In one example, a method for displaying three dimensional images can include generating a three dimensional image. The method can also include detecting a field of view of a user based on a position and orientation of the head of the user. The method can also include separating the three dimensional image into a plurality of frames based on the field of view of the user, wherein each frame corresponds to one of a plurality of display panels. Furthermore, the method can include modifying the plurality of frames based on a depth of each pixel in the three dimensional image. Additionally, the method can include displaying the three dimensional image using the plurality of display panels.
