摘要: A direct retinal projection apparatus including means for detecting a gaze direction of a user, a projector, a first optical element, an actuator and a processor. The first optical element includes different optical portions having different optical properties with respect to magnification. The processor is configured to render a warped image having a spatially-uniform angular resolution via the projector, whilst adjusting an orientation of the first optical element via the actuator, based on the detected gaze direction, to direct a projection of the warped image from the first optical element towards a retina of a user's eye. Projections of different portions of the warped image are differently magnified by the different optical portions of the first optical element to produce on the retina of the user's eye a de-warped image having a spatially-variable angular resolution.

摘要: A system and a method for enhancing a user's immersion in a mixed reality mode of head-mounted display apparatus, the system being at least communicably coupled to the aforesaid display apparatus. The system includes at least one camera communicably coupled to a processor. The processor controls said camera to capture sequence of images of real-world environment; analyse sequence of images to identify spatial geometry of real objects in real-world environment and material categories to which real objects belong; process sequence of images to generate sequence of mixed-reality images, based upon spatial geometry and material category of at least one real object that is represented by at least one virtual object in sequence of mixed-reality images, wherein visual behaviour of at least one virtual object emulates at least one material property associated with material category of the at least one real object; and render the sequence of mixed-reality images.

摘要: A gaze-tracking system for use in a head-mounted display apparatus. The gaze-tracking system includes: at least one first optical element comprising particles of a phosphorescent or fluorescent material dispersed therein, the particles of the phosphorescent or fluorescent material being dispersed in a manner that when excited by electromagnetic radiation incident thereupon, the particles produce structured light of a given wavelength, wherein the produced structured light illuminates a user's eye; at least one camera for capturing an image of reflections of the structured light from the user's eye, wherein the image is representative of a form of the reflections and a position of the reflections on an image plane of the at least one camera; and a processor coupled in communication with the at least one camera, wherein the processor is configured to process the captured image to detect a gaze direction of the user.

摘要: A display apparatus and method of displaying, via the display apparatus. The display apparatus includes context image renderer for rendering context image; focus image renderer for rendering focus image; exit optical element; and optical combiner for optically combining projection of the rendered context image with projection of the rendered focus image to create visual scene. The optical combiner includes first semi-transparent reflective element; and a second semi-transparent reflective element. The context image renderer is arranged in a manner that the projection of rendered context image passes through first semi-transparent reflective element towards exit optical element. The focus image renderer is arranged in a manner that projection of the rendered focus image passes through the first semi-transparent reflective element towards the second semi-transparent reflective element, and reflected therefrom towards the first semi-transparent reflective element, and is then reflected from the first semi-transparent reflective element towards the exit optical element.
