Abstract: A pupil-replicating lightguide includes a slab of transparent material, a switchable out-coupling grating for out-coupling portions of image light to propagate towards an eyebox, and a switchable tracking grating for redirecting tracking light carrying an eye image towards an eye tracking camera. One of the two gratings may be turned ON while the other is turned OFF, in a time-sequential manner, allowing the combined use of the pupil-replicating lightguide for carrying image light and eye tracking light.

Abstract: A near-eye display includes a first polarizer in a path of external light to an eyebox of the display for polarizing the external light to a first polarization state. A see-through lightguide is disposed in the path between the first polarizer and the eyebox for conveying image light to the eyebox in a second, orthogonal polarization state while transmitting the external light in the first polarization state. A second polarizer is disposed in the path downstream of the see-through lightguide for adjusting a power balance of the external light and the image light at the eyebox.
