    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for displays, such as for a head wearable device. An example display can include an infrared illumination layer, the infrared illumination layer including a waveguide having a first face and a second face, the first face disposed opposite the second face. The illumination layer may also include an in-coupling grating disposed on the first face, the in-coupling grating configured to couple light into the waveguide to generate internally reflected light propagating in a first direction. The illumination layer may also include a plurality of out-coupling gratings disposed on at least one of the first face and the second face, the plurality of out-coupling gratings configured to receive the internally reflected light and couple the internally reflected light out of the waveguide.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for qualifying a multi-layered optical stack include providing the multi-layered optical stack including a first optical layer and a second optical layer. The first optical layer includes a first pair of fiducial marks and the second optical layer includes a second pair of fiducial marks Each of the first pair are spaced laterally from each of the second pair such that the first pair and the second pair are visible through the optical stack. A first angle defined between a first reference line connecting the first pair and a global reference line is determined. A second angle defined between a second reference line connecting the second pair and the global reference line is determined. The multi-layered optical stack is qualified for use in the optical projection system based on whether a difference between the first angle and the second angle is less than a predetermined threshold.
