  • Patent number: 12386886
    Abstract: The subject technology provides for contextual text lookup for images. When a request is received by an electronic device to perform a lookup or search for text in an image that is displayed at the electronic device, the electronic device may obtain one or more search results, based on the text itself and based on contextual information derived, by the electronic device, from the image. In one or more implementations, application information associated with an application that displays the image may also be used as contextual metadata for enhancing the results of the search for the text from the image.

  • Publication number: 20250208330
    Abstract: A reflective polarization volume hologram (rPVH) layer in combination with a quarter wave plate (QWP) is used to provide optical power and to correct chromatic aberration in an optical assembly of an augmented and/or virtual reality (AR/VR) near-eye display device. The rPVH layer introduces more degrees of freedom to further improve contrast of the optical system and reduces a thickness/weight of the optical assembly. The rPVH layer is flexible, thus, allowing curved lamination on an optical lens. Moreover, the rPVH layer is sensitive to circular polarization. Thus, it can filter right-handed circular polarization (RHCP) or left-handed circular polarization (LHCP), without a need for the QWP.
