    Abstract: A display system may include a waveguide with an output coupler that couples image light out of the waveguide and towards an eye box. The output coupler may also transmit world light from real-world objects towards the eye box. A bias lens may pass the world light to the output coupler. An adjustable tint layer having multiple states that involve transmission of different amounts of the world light may be disposed between the bias lens and the output coupler. Different states may impart different colors and/or may impart a gradient transmission characteristic to the world light. The bias lens itself may form the adjustable tint layer. The adjustable tint layer may have a transparent electrode layer that is provided with one or more AC voltages that heat the adjustable tint layer. The adjustable tint layer may be a self-switching electrochromic device that includes a transparent solar cell.

    Abstract: This application describes a phased approach to provision eSIM profiles to a wireless device. Credentials are preloaded to an eUICC during manufacture of the eUICC and used subsequently to load eSIM profiles to the eUICC without requiring an active, real-time connection to an MNO provisioning server. Multiple bound profile packages (BPPs) can be pre-generated and encrypted by MNO provisioning servers for an eUICC and transferred to a BPP aggregator server before assembly of the eUICC in a respective wireless device. A local provisioning server in a manufacturing facility mutually authenticates and connects to the BPP aggregator server to download and store one or more of the encrypted BPPs for later installation on the eUICC. The local provisioning server subsequently mutually authenticates and connects to the eUICC to load at least one of the one or more pre-generated, encrypted BPPs to the eUICC during assembly and/or testing of the wireless device.
