Abstract: A night vision optical device includes an underlying device configured to be sensitive to light in a first spectrum, and to provide output light based on absorbing light in the first spectrum. The night vision optical device further includes a stacked device overlapping the underlying device. The stacked device includes one or more openings formed in the underlying device to form one or more transparent regions which are transparent to the light in the first spectrum to allow light in the first spectrum to pass through to the underlying device. The stacked device is sensitive to light in a second spectrum. The stacked device outputs light in the first spectrum to the underlying device as a result of absorbing light in the second spectrum. Thus, the underlying device outputs light based both on light passing through the transparent regions and on light output by the stacked device.

Abstract: A transparent optical device configured to be used with an underlying device. The underlying device is configured to provide output light. The optical device is configured to transmit light from the underlying device through the optical device. The optical device includes first and second zones. The first zone includes a first plurality of transparent regions formed in the first zone allowing light to pass through from the underlying device. The second zone includes a second plurality of transparent regions formed in the second zone which allow light in the first spectrum to pass through from the underlying device at a different transmission efficiency than the first zone.

Abstract: An optical device. The optical device includes an underlying device that is sensitive to input light, and provides output light in a first spectrum based on absorbing the input light. The optical device further includes a stacked device, formed in an active area of a single semiconductor chip, coupled in an overlapping fashion to the underlying device. The stacked device includes first and second zones. Each zone has a plurality of active elements having a particular lateral size, where the lateral size is different for each zone. Each zone also has a plurality of transparent regions formed in the stacked device which are transparent to the light in the first spectrum to allow light in the first spectrum to pass through from the underlying device. The transparent regions are configured in size and shape to cause each zone to have a particular transmission efficiency for light in the first spectrum.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for a night vision system that integrates functions of detecting an intensified image and transmitting the intensified image superimposed with a heads-up display. The night vision system includes an optical device having a transparent display configured with pixels emitting display light (i.e., the heads-up display), and the transparent display has transmission regions arranged among the pixels for transmitting light representing an intensified image (e.g., luminescent light from a phosphor screen). Light rays passing through the transmission regions also pass through detectors, which detect light outside of the visible spectrum (e.g., UV light). By detecting light outside of the visible spectrum, the detectors detect the intensified image without degrading the image in the visible spectrum that is provided to users.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for a night vision system including a transparent overlay display that transmit direct-view light representing an intensified image and emits display light representing a display image. The transparent overlay display is a borderless display in which the active area extends to at least one edge of the display. Data-handling circuitry is arranged within the active area, rather than being arranged along a border of the display. The data-handling circuitry may be fabricated in the active area of the display by fabricating it below opaque pixel regions that generate the display light. This borderless configuration allows partial overlap with the intensified image by eliminating opaque borders in which the data-handling circuitry is fabricated. This borderless configuration helps to minimize size, weight, and power by reducing the size of the display and eliminating the need for bulky beam splitters.
