Abstract: Example display devices include a waveguide configured to propagate visible light under total internal reflection in a direction parallel to a major surface of the waveguide. The waveguide has formed thereon an outcoupling element configured to outcouple a portion of the visible light in a direction normal to the major surface of the waveguide. The example display devices additionally include a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) reflector disposed on a forward side of said waveguides, said CLC reflector configured to have an optical power or a depth of focus that is adjustable upon application of an electrical signal. The outcoupling element is disposed to extract light from the waveguide and direct at least a portion of said light propagating within said waveguide to the CLC reflector, said light being directed from said CLC reflector back through said waveguide and into said eye to present an image from the optical display into the eye of the wearer.

Abstract: A pupil separation system includes an input surface and a central portion including one or more dichroic mirrors. The pupil separation system also includes a reflective surface disposed laterally with respect to the central portion and an output surface including a central surface operable to transmit light in a first wavelength range and a peripheral surface operable to transmit light in a second wavelength range different from the first wavelength range. The light in the second wavelength range is reflected by the one or more dichroic mirrors before being reflected by the reflective surface.

Abstract: Techniques are described for operating an optical system. In some embodiments, light associated with a world object is received at the optical system. Virtual image light is projected onto an eyepiece of the optical system. A portion of a system field of view of the optical system to be at least partially dimmed is determined based on information detected by the optical system. A plurality of spatially-resolved dimming values for the portion of the system field of view may be determined based on the detected information. The detected information may include light information, gaze information, and/or image information. A dimmer of the optical system may be adjusted to reduce an intensity of light associated with the world object in the portion of the system field of view according to the plurality of dimming values.
