Patent number: 11947162Abstract: The present invention relates to a guiding apparatus for an imaging light path and a guiding method thereof. The guiding apparatus comprises at least one light-projection system to project at least one visible light beam and at least one light-guiding device disposed corresponding to the light-projection system. The light-guiding device has a first end, a second end, and a light path disposed between the first end and the second end. The visible light beam projected from the light-projection system is received at the first end and guided to an image-receiving object, including but not limited to the user's eyes, out of the second end through the light path to form a real or virtual image. The effects of high brightness of the visible light beam arriving at the image-receiving object, low consumption of light energy, and improved installation flexibility in a space-limited apparatus can be obtained.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2022Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: KDH Advanced Research Pty LtdInventors: Wei-Young Liang, Chung-Hsien Lu, Ranjith Rajasekharan Unnithan

Patent number: 11420404Abstract: A manufacturing method of flexible waveguide display structure includes steps of: providing at least one mold, the at least one mold having multiple mold channels inside, a polymer material being filled into the multiple mold channels, after solidified and shaped, multiple flexible waveguide structures being formed; taking the multiple flexible waveguide structures out of the multiple mold channels, each two adjacent flexible waveguide structures of the multiple flexible waveguide structures having two opposite cut faces, an optical guide layer being formed on one of the cut faces; and connecting the opposite cut faces of the multiple flexible waveguide structures with each other to form the flexible waveguide display structure. The manufacturing method of the flexible waveguide display structure is applicable to a device with different curved faces or plane faces to enhance the installation flexibility and the brightness and uniformity of the visible light image.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2020Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Assignee: Jarvish Pty Ltd.Inventors: Wei-Young Liang, Chung-Hsien Lu

Patent number: 11221439Abstract: A flexible light path guide device includes at least one light path coupling member for receiving at least one visible light and at least one flexible optical guide member having a first end, a second end extending in a direction away from the first end, a light path positioned between the first and second ends and at least one chamber positioned in the light path in adjacency to the second end. The first end is coupled with the visible light corresponding to the light path coupling member. The visible light is guided by the light path to the chamber. The chamber guides the visible light to outer side of the flexible optical guide member. Accordingly, when the visible light reaches a projected object, the effects that the visible light has high brightness and low optical energy loss and the total volume of the projection imaging device is minimized are achieved.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2020Date of Patent: January 11, 2022Assignee: Jarvish Pty Ltd.Inventors: Wei-Young Liang, Chung-Hsien Lu

Patent number: 8982043Abstract: An electronic reader device with a physical control disposed on a surface of the device housing. The physical control is operable to initiate a first function. A display disposed on the surface of the housing is operable to show a virtual control that initiates a second function. A sensor detects a drag operation moving the virtual control to a position on a border of the display adjacent to the physical control. A processor associates the second function with the physical control in response to the drag operation and performs the second function upon activation of the physical control.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2010Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignees: Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd., Koobe Inc.Inventors: Wei-Young Liang, Chin-Lung Ho
