    Abstract: Architectures are provided for selectively outputting light for forming images, the light having different wavelengths and being outputted with low levels of crosstalk. In some embodiments, light is incoupled into a waveguide and deflected to propagate in different directions, depending on wavelength. The incoupled light then outcoupled by outcoupling optical elements that outcouple light based on the direction of propagation of the light. In some other embodiments, color filters are between a waveguide and outcoupling elements. The color filters limit the wavelengths of light that interact with and are outcoupled by the outcoupling elements. In yet other embodiments, a different waveguide is provided for each range of wavelengths to be outputted. Incoupling optical elements selectively incouple light of the appropriate range of wavelengths into a corresponding waveguide, from which the light is outcoupled.

    Abstract: A display assembly suitable for use with a virtual or augmented reality headset is described and includes the following: an input coupling grating; a scanning mirror configured to rotate about two or more different axes of rotation; an optical element; and optical fibers, each of which have a light emitting end disposed between the input coupling grating and the scanning mirror and oriented such that light emitted from the light emitting end is refracted through at least a portion of the optical element, reflected off the scanning mirror, refracted back through the optical element and into the input coupling grating. The scanning mirror can be built upon a MEMS type architecture.
