Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices, methods and systems for implementing a dual image head-up display incorporating a single picture generating unit (PGU). The aspects disclosed herein obviate a blind wall construction and achieve the results created by systems employing two distinct PGUs. The aspects disclosed herein are also directed to an optimized backlighting system and construction for employment with the disclosed HUD systems.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices, methods and systems for implementing a beam-splitter with the deleterious effects of double images removed. The aspects disclosed herein are implemented with the introduction of a front and rear surface of the beam-splitter's transparent substrate being in a non-parallel fashion. The aspects disclosed herein may be employed with a head-up display (HUD), an augment reality (AR) HUD, or any implementation employing at least two picture generation units.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a thin-film transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display (LCD) employing an air flow system by the introduction of a gap. The gap may be formed by also introducing a housing portion for selective layers of the TFT LCD. Also disclosed herein is a method of implementing the same.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices, methods and systems for producing hologram-based indicia for a vehicle dashboard/cockpit. By employing the aspects disclosed herein, indicia (electronically coupled to the vehicle's microprocessor), is lighted and projected in a three-dimensional virtual manner. The aspects disclosed herein may be embedded in various portions in the vehicle and thus, not consume extra space or area required to create virtual images through other techniques.

Abstract: A head-up display device for displaying a virtual image superimposed over a field of view to a viewer is provided. The head-up display device includes a picture generating unit having an illumination source, such as a laser, to generate a real image following a first light beam. A windshield of a vehicle engages the first light beam, either at an inclined angle or perpendicular, to reflect the first light beam away from the viewer as reflected images. A combiner disposed on the windshield including a holographic optical element steers the first light beam toward the viewer as a third light beam to present the virtual image within the field of view of the viewer. Mirrors may direct and magnify first light beam onto the combiner. A method for displaying a virtual image superimposed over a field of view to a viewer using a head-up display device is also provided.

Abstract: The aspects disclosed herein are related to systems, methods, and devices to perform automatic eye box adjustments (for example, those that are implemented in a heads-up display context) for a vehicle-based implementation. The aspects disclosed herein employ either detection of a viewer's eye location, height, position, or a combination thereof to perform said eye box adjustment. Various aspects disclosed herein may also be directed to also adjusting graphical assets (for example, augmented reality content) used in the context of said HUD implementation.

Abstract: A flat panel display cooling apparatus includes a display panel having a first sheet of light transmissive material and an intermediate layer, together defining a first compartment holding a liquid crystal to generate an image. A cooling cell, having a second sheet of light transmissive material, extends in a flat plane parallel and spaced apart from the intermediate layer, defining a second compartment holding a cooling fluid to regulate the temperature of the liquid crystal. A second seal is disposed between the second sheet and the intermediate layer and enclosing the second compartment. Ports may extend into the second compartment, such as through the second seal, to allow the cooling fluid to be circulated out of the second compartment to carry heat away from the liquid crystal. Direct transfer of heat from the cooling cell is also provided, such as where the cooling cell extends beyond the display panel.
