    Abstract: An eyepiece for a head wearable display includes a light guide component for guiding display light received at a peripheral location and emitting the display light at a viewing region. The light guide component includes an eye-ward facing surface having a reflection portion and a viewing portion, a folding surface oriented to reflect the display light received into the light guide component to the reflection portion of the eye-ward facing surface, and a first interface surface oriented to receive the display light reflected from the reflection portion of the eye-ward facing surface. A partially reflective layer is disposed on the first interface surface in the viewing region to reflect the display light through viewing portion of the eye-ward facing surface.

    Abstract: An optical apparatus for a see-through near-to-eye display includes a diffractive optical combiner, one or more refractive correction lenses, and a diffractive correction element. The diffractive optical combiner has an eye-ward side and an external scene side and includes a reflective diffraction grating that is at least partially reflective to image light incident through the eye-ward side and at least partially transmissive to external scene light incident through the external scene side. The one or more refractive correction lenses are disposed in an optical path of the image light to aid in pre-correcting aberrations induced in the image light after reflection off of the diffractive optical combiner. The diffractive correction element is disposed in the optical path of the image light to pre-compensate for lateral color aberrations induced in the image light after reflection off of the diffractive optical combiner.

    Abstract: A head-wearable display includes a collimated light source, a beam steering mechanism, and a synchronization controller. The collimated light source selectively emits collimated light. The beam steering mechanism is optically coupled to receive the collimated light and angularly scans the collimated light between beam steering states that each redirect the collimate light to a different angular direction along at least one angular dimension. The beam steering mechanism is coupled to scan the collimated light across an eyebox. The synchronization controller is coupled to the collimated light source and the beam steering mechanism to synchronize selective emission of the collimated light from the collimated light source with the beam steering states of the beam steering mechanism to repetitiously draw an image in the eyebox.

    Abstract: An eyepiece for a head wearable display includes a curved lightguide component, an input coupler, and an output coupler. The curved lightguide component guides display light received at an input region peripherally located from a viewing region and emits the display light along an eye-ward direction in the viewing region. The curved lightguide component includes an eye-ward facing surface that is concave and a world facing surface that is convex. The input coupler is disposed at the input region to couple the display light into the curved lightguide component. The output coupler is disposed at the viewing region to redirect the display light towards the eye-ward direction for output from the curved lightguide component. The output coupler is partially transmissive to ambient light incident through the world facing surface. The display light is guided between the input coupler and the output coupler entirely by total internal reflection.

    Abstract: An eyepiece for a head wearable display includes a curved lightguide component, a curved see-through component, an output coupler, and a prescription layer. The curved lightguide component guides display light received at an input region and releases the display light along an eye-ward direction in a viewing region. The output coupler is disposed at the viewing region to redirect the display light towards the eye-ward direction for output from the curved lightguide component. The output coupler is at least partially transmissive to ambient light incident through a world-facing side such that the viewing region is see-through. The curved see-through component is mated to the world-facing side of the curved lightguide component. The prescription layer has a first side mated to an eye-facing side of the curved lightguide component and a second side having a curvature that introduces prescriptive lensing to both the ambient light and the display light.

    Abstract: An optical apparatus includes a first optical element having an eye-ward facing surface and an external world facing surface substantially opposite of the eye-ward facing surface. The optical apparatus also includes a diffractive optical element (“DOE”) disposed to substantially follow a curvature of the eye-ward facing surface of the first optical element. The DOE includes a partially reflective diffraction grating configured to direct a portion of image light in an eye-ward direction where the image light is incident through an eye facing side of the DOE. The curvature of the eye-ward facing surface of the first optical element has an optical power configured to collimate the image light within an eyebox sized area.
