    Abstract: A projector including an electro-optical panel in which a plurality of pixels are arrayed, an optical path shifting element configured to change an optical path of light emitted from the plurality of pixels, and a control circuit configured to control a state of the optical path shifting element such that light emitted from a predetermined pixel among the plurality of pixels reaches a first position on a display screen in the first unit period, control a state of the optical path shifting element such that light emitted from the predetermined pixel reaches a second position on the display screen in the second unit period, and control a state of the optical path shifting element in a transition period in which a unit period transitions from the first unit period to the second unit period based on a type of image indicated by an input image signal.

    Abstract: Navigation of a virtual environment (VE) can mean navigating a VE that is spatially larger than the available Physical Tracked Space (PTS). Accordingly, the concept of redirected walking was introduced in order to provide a more natural way of navigating a VE, albeit with many restrictions on the shape and size of the physical and virtual spaces. However, prior art techniques have limitations such as requiring eye-tracking increasing costs and complexity of the user's head mounted display system or triggering major saccades in the user. Accordingly, the inventors have established a novel technique which overcomes these limitations. The technique is based on a machine learning/artificial intelligence system that predicts saccades such that the psychological phenomenon of inattentional blindness can be applied for re-directed walking without requiring the triggering major saccades in the users, complex expensive systems, etc.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for depth-based foveated rendering in the display system are disclosed. The display system may be an augmented reality display system configured to provide virtual content on a plurality of depth planes using different wavefront divergence. Some embodiments include determining a fixation point of a user's eyes. Location information associated with a first virtual object to be presented to the user via a display device is obtained. A resolution-modifying parameter of the first virtual object is obtained. A particular resolution at which to render the first virtual object is identified based on the location information and the resolution-modifying parameter of the first virtual object. The particular resolution is based on a resolution distribution specifying resolutions for corresponding distances from the fixation point. The first virtual object rendered at the identified resolution is presented to the user via the display system.

    Abstract: A method for controlling a display apparatus, the method comprising, displaying, in a first mode, a first image based on received image data having first resolution on a display surface at a first display size corresponding to the first resolution, displaying, in a second mode, a second image based on the image data having second resolution smaller than the first resolution on the display surface at a second display size corresponding to the second resolution, converting, when the display apparatus accepts the operation of increasing the second display size in the second mode, the first resolution of image data to third resolution corresponding to the operation, displaying a third image based on the image data having the third resolution on the display surface.
