Patent number: 11778160Abstract: Examples are disclosed that relate to calibration data related to a determined alignment of sensors on a wearable display device. One example provides a wearable display device comprising a frame, a first sensor and a second sensor, one or more displays, a logic system, and a storage system. The storage system comprises calibration data related to a determined alignment of the sensors with the frame in a bent configuration and instructions executable by the logic system. The instructions are executable to obtain a first sensor data and a second sensor data respectfully from the first and second sensors, determine a distance from the wearable display device to a feature based at least upon the first and second sensor data using the calibration data, obtain a stereo image to display based upon the distance from the wearable display device to the feature, and output the stereo image via the displays.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2021Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Yinan Wu, Navid Poulad, Dapeng Liu, Trevor Grant Boswell, Rayna DeMaster-Smith, Roy Joseph Riccomini, Michael Edward Samples, Yuenkeen Cheong

Patent number: 11682130Abstract: One disclosed example provides a method for displaying a hologram via a head-mounted display (HMD) device. The method comprises, via a camera system on the HMD device, acquiring image data capturing a surrounding environment by detecting illumination light output by a projector located on a case for the HMD device. A distance is determined from the HMD device to an object in the surrounding environment based upon the image data. The method further comprises displaying via the HMD device a hologram, the hologram comprising a left-eye image and a right-eye image each having a perspective based upon the distance determined.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2021Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Navid Poulad, Roy Joseph Riccomini

Publication number: 20210405258Abstract: A method of making an integrated depth sensor window lens, such as for an augmented reality (AR) head set, the depth sensor window lens comprising a sensor lens and an illuminator lens separated by an opaque dam. The method uses a two-shot injection molding process, a first shot comprising an optically clear polymeric material to form the sensor lens and the illuminator lens and the second shot comprising an opaque polymeric material to form the separator of the two.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2021Publication date: December 30, 2021Inventors: Maosheng YE, Javier YANEZ, Frank C. HOLLOWAY, Michael BEERMAN, Roy Joseph RICCOMINI
