摘要:
Image projection devices, high-speed fiber scanned displays and related methods for projecting an image onto a surface and interfacing with the projected image are provided. A method for projecting one or more images and obtaining feedback with an optical input-output assembly is provided. The input-output assembly comprising a light-scanning optical fiber and a sensor. The method includes generating a sequence of light in response to one or more image representations and a scan pattern of the optical fiber, articulating the optical fiber in the scan pattern, projecting the sequence of light from the articulated optical fiber, and generating a feedback signal with the sensor in response to reflections of the sequence of light.

Methods of reducing distortion in scanning fiber devices are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes changing an intensity of light transmitted through a cantilevered optical fiber of a scanning fiber device. The method also includes changing a setpoint temperature for the scanning fiber device based at least in part on the change in the intensity of the light. Other methods, apparatus, systems, and machine-readable mediums are also disclosed.
摘要:
Methods of attaching optical fibers to actuator tubes in the manufacture of scanning fiber devices are disclosed. In one aspect, a method may include applying a bead to an optical fiber of a scanning fiber device near a proximal end of a free end portion of the optical fiber. Then, the bead may be adhered at least partially within an actuator tube of the scanning fiber device by applying and curing an adhesive. Scanning fiber devices manufactured by such methods are also disclosed.
