  • Patent number: 9684103
    Abstract: A structured light generation device includes a first surface structure and a second surface structure, which are opposed to each other. The first surface structure includes a diffractive optical element. The second surface structure includes a lenticular lens structure. By the diffractive optical element, an incident dot beam is processed into plural dot beams with different sizes and different brightness values. By the lenticular lens structure, the each dot beam is expanded to a linear beam. After the single dot beam is processed by the structured light generation device, a structured light is generated. The structured light generation device can be applied to a projection system with a 3D gesture sensing control or detection device.

  • Publication number: 20170131560
    Abstract: A laser diode-DOE module includes a diffractive optical element and a laser light source. The diffractive optical element receives a non-collimated dot beam. The laser light source emits a non-collimated dot beam. Consequently, the spacing distance between the laser light source and the diffractive optical element can be designed as short as possible. Consequently, the total length of the laser diode-DOE module is reduced.
