Abstract: Examples are disclosed that relate to selectively dimming or occluding light from a real-world background to enhance the display of virtual objects on a near-eye display. One example provides a near-eye display system including a see-through display, an image source, a background light sensor, a selective background occluder comprising a first liquid crystal panel and a second liquid crystal panel positioned between a pair of polarizers, and a computing device including instructions executable by a logic subsystem to determine a shape and a position of an occlusion area based upon a virtual object to be displayed, obtain a first and a second birefringence pattern for the first and the second liquid crystal panels, produce the occlusion area by applying the birefringence patterns to the liquid crystal panels, and display the virtual object in a location visually overlapping with the occlusion area.

Abstract: A device for combining tomographic images with human vision using a half-silvered mirror to merge the visual outer surface of an object (or a robotic mock effector) with a simultaneous reflection of a tomographic image from the interior of the object. The device maybe used with various types of image modalities including ultrasound, CT, and MRI. The image capture device and the display may or may not be fixed to the semi-transparent mirror. If not fixed, the imaging device may provide a compensation device that adjusts the reflection of the displayed ultrasound on the half-silvered mirror to account for any change in the image capture device orientation or location.

Abstract: A projection-type display device is connectively coupled to a mobile device (such as a smartphone) where the light generated by a small projection device is directed at a relatively transparent holographic optical element (HOE) to provide a display to an operator of the mobile device or a viewer. The projector and HOE may be configured to produce and magnify a virtual image that is perceived as being displayed at a large distance from the operator who views the image through the HOE. The HOE may comprise a volume grating effective at only the narrow wavelengths of the projection device to maximize transparency while also maximizing the light reflected from the display projector to the eyes of the operator.

Abstract: A head-mounted light-field display system (HMD) includes two light-field projectors (LFPs), one per eye, each comprising a solid-state LED emitter array (SLEA) operatively coupled to a microlens array (MLA). The SLEA and the MLA are positioned so that light emitted from an LED of the SLEA reaches the eye through at most one microlens from the MLA. The HMD's LFP comprises a moveable solid-state LED emitter array coupled to a microlens array for close placement in front of an eye—without the need for any additional relay or coupling optics—wherein the LED emitter array physically moves with respect to the microlens array to mechanically multiplex the LED emitters to achieve resolution via mechanically multiplexing.

Abstract: A microscopy method and apparatus includes placing a specimen to be observed adjacent to a reflective holographic optical element (RDOE). A beam of light that is at least partially coherent is focused on a region of the specimen. The beam forward propagates through the specimen and is at least partially reflected backward through the specimen. The backward reflected light interferes with the forward propagating light to provide a three dimensional interference pattern that is at least partially within the specimen. A specimen region illuminated by the interference pattern is imaged at an image detector. Computational reconstruction is used to generate a microscopic image in all three spatial dimensions (X,Y,Z), simultaneously with resolution greater than conventional microscopy.

Abstract: Described herein is a method and apparatus that may be used in various applications, such as medical diagnosis and conducting research. In one embodiment, the subject matter extends upon the principle of standing wave microscopy by improving the resolution of subject specimen images in all three dimensions, thus achieving near isotropic resolution improvement that allows full three dimensional imaging of the subject specimen beyond the optical resolution limits of the objective lens and without the complexity and cost associated with 4p microscopy.
