Abstract: An electronic device may include a display panel configured to produce light and a lens assembly that receives the light from the display panel. The lens assembly may include a first lens and a second lens. The second lens may be a removable lens that is configured to be selectively attached to the lens assembly. The lens assembly may also include a partially reflective mirror that is interposed between the first lens and the display panel, a reflective polarizer that is interposed between the first lens and the second lens when the second lens is attached to the lens assembly, and a quarter wave plate that is interposed between the reflective polarizer and the second lens when the second lens element is attached to the lens assembly.

Abstract: A touch sensor panel is disclosed. In some examples, the touch sensor panel includes a substrate including a first side and a second side, a passivation layer, a first plurality of touch electrodes formed on the first side of the substrate, and a second plurality of touch electrodes formed on the second side of the substrate. In some examples, a component of the touch sensor panel, other than the first plurality of touch electrodes and the second plurality of touch electrodes, is configured to prevent light configured to activate the passivation layer during fabrication of the touch sensor panel from being transmitted from the first side of the substrate to the second side of the substrate.

Abstract: An electronic device may include a display system and an optical system that are supported by a housing. The optical system may be a catadioptric optical system having one or more lens elements. The optical system may include a wave plate stack with one or more wave plates. The display system may also include a wave plate stack with one or more wave plates. Each wave plate stack may include a positive dispersion quarter wave plate and a positive dispersion half wave plate. Each wave plate stack may include a negative dispersion quarter wave plate and a negative dispersion half wave plate. Each wave plate stack may include a biaxial quarter wave plate and a biaxial half wave plate.
