Publication number: 20240134202Abstract: An optical system provides two-stage expansion of an input optical aperture for a display based on a light-guide optical element. A first expansion is achieved using two distinct sets of mutually-parallel partially-reflecting surfaces, each set handing a different part of an overall field-of-view presented to the eye. In some cases, a single image projector provides image illumination to two sets of facets that are integrated into the LOE. In other cases, two separate projectors deliver image illumination corresponding to two different parts of the field-of-view to their respective sets of facets.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2024Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Eitan RONEN, Ronen CHRIKI, Tsion EISENFELD

Publication number: 20240134205Abstract: The application discloses an optical waveguide device for image display and a display device. The optical waveguide device comprises a coupling-in grating and a coupling-out grating provided on a waveguide substrate. The coupling-out grating is used to couple, at least a portion of light propagating into it along an input direction, out of the waveguide substrate, and has a receiving end located upstream and a coupling-out end located downstream along the input direction. The receiving end is divided into a first grating area, a second grating area and a blank area between the first and second grating areas in a width direction perpendicular to the input direction. The blank area can prevent central light from being prematurely diffracted and splited by the coupling-out grating, thereby reducing the loss of light energy while ensuring effective coupling-out into an eyebox range, maximizing coupling-out efficiency, and improving the optical effect.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Zhentao FAN, Xingming ZHAO, Kehan TIAN

Publication number: 20240134210Abstract: A double-sided composite spectacle lens and an inject mold therefor are provided. One surface of the spectacle lens is an aspherical surface, and the other surface is a designed aspherical surface used to inhibit astigmatism, and a spectacle lens formed by combining the two surfaces has two areas with different functions: optimizing optical performance, and thinning for aesthetics. By controlling the reduction of diopter and optimizing astigmatism on one surface, and inversely offsetting astigmatism on the other surface, the degree of astigmatism of the spectacle lens formed by combining the two surfaces is significantly lower than a diopter variation, and the degree of oblique astigmatism is significantly reduced. The aesthetic thinning effects of reducing the edge or center thickness of the double-sided composite spectacle lens are significantly enhanced by accelerating reduction of the diopter on one surface and changing from reducing to increasing the diopter on the other surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 3, 2024Publication date: April 25, 2024Applicant: SUZHOU MASON OPTICAL CO., LTD.Inventors: Haomo YU, Xiaoyi CHEN, Tao FENG, De LI
