Abstract: A pair of optical prisms arranged in a complementary relationship provides for anamorphic magnification and cooperates with a refractive or diffractive element having at least one axis of effective cylindrical curvature, wherein each at least one axis of effective cylindrical curvature and the apexes of the pair of optical prisms are all substantially parallel to one another. The refractive or diffractive element generates an aberration as a result of rotation thereof about an axis parallel to the at least one axis of effective cylindrical curvature that at least partially compensates a corresponding aberration generated by the pair of optical prisms.

Abstract: An optical subsystem of a near-eye display system provides for projecting light of a virtual image of image content to an eye location, and provides for collecting light of the virtual image onto an exit pupil on a surface proximate to an outer surface of an eye when at the eye location. A subpupil modulator within an aperture in cooperation with the optical subsystem provides for forming a plurality of subpupils within the exit pupil, provides for less than all of the light of the virtual image associated with one or more less than all of the plurality of subpupils to be projected to the eye location, and provides for individually and independently controlling an intensity of the light through each activated subpupil to a level less than a maximum level of intensity.

Abstract: A selected color component (R, G, B) for each of a plurality of image pixels (32, P) of an image cell (42, C) is encoded to form a corresponding color component (ER, EG, EB) of a corresponding plurality of encoded pixels (40, PE) in one-to-one correspondence with the image pixels (32, P). A bit length of each color component (ER, EG, EB) of an encoded pixel (40, PE) is less than that of a corresponding image pixel (32, P). The encoded pixels (40, PE) are subsequently decoded to generate a corresponding decoded image cell (64, C′k) containing decoded image pixels (62, P′) in one-to-one correspondence with both the encoded pixels (40, PE) and with the original image pixels (32, P), of the same bit length as the original image pixels (32, P), and containing extended color information in excess of the corresponding base color information contained in the corresponding most-significant (MS) portions of the color components (R, G, B) of the original image pixels (32, P) having the same bit length as the encoded color components (ER, EG, EB).

Abstract: An accessory may be attached to image projector via an associated accessory-interface structure, the latter of which is operatively coupled to at least one projector-attachment structure that extends through an opening in a front panel of the projector so as to provide for clamping the accessory-interface structure to the front panel of the image projector.

Abstract: For at least one component of a digitized image, if a magnitude of a difference between a pixel component value and a representative image-cell-value is less than a threshold for each pixel of a subset of pixels of an image cell of a digitized image, the corresponding pixel component values of corresponding pixels of a corresponding processed image cell are set to the representative image-cell-value. Otherwise, at least the most significant portion of the corresponding pixel component values of the corresponding pixels of the corresponding processed image cell are set to the value of pixel component values of the digitized image.
