    摘要: Systems and methods are provided herein for providing spatial audio cues for notifying a user of a user interface (“UI”) element in augmented reality (“AR”). This may be accomplished by a system determining a location and orientation of a device, and then determining an estimated augmented reality view using the location and orientation of the device. The system may then determine whether a UI element is within the augmented reality view. If the UI element is within the augmented reality view, the system can play an audio cue signaling a position of the UI element using audio spatialization. After hearing the audio cue, the user may then view the UI element in AR using the device.

    摘要: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, method, and user interface to facilitate a camera sharing session between two or more users. A request for an image depicting an image target is received from a first device associated with a first user. A notification of the request is transmitted to a second device associated with a second user. Image data comprising at least one image generated by a camera communicatively coupled to the second device is received from the second device and the image data is transmitted to the first device. A reward is provided to the second user based on the image data including a depiction of the image target.

    摘要: An optical module and an electronic device are disclosed. The optical module comprises a beam splitting assembly, a beam combining assembly, a first dimmer assembly and a second dimmer assembly. The beam splitting assembly is configured to divide the incident light into a first light beam and a second light beam that propagate in different directions. The first dimming assembly is located on the light path of the first light beam, and the second dimming assembly is located on the light path of the second light beam. The beam combining assembly is located at the intersection position, so that the first light beam and the second light beam entering the beam combining assembly exit concurrently along the same direction.

    摘要: Methods and apparatuses for applying anti-reflective structures to a waveguide of an augmented reality display device include producing two initial molds: one formed with high precision for diffractive optical structures, and one formed with lower precision for anti-reflective structures. The two initial molds are imprinted into a single resist layer to form an integrated mold, which is then usable to simultaneously form both diffractive optical structures and anti-reflective structures. Accordingly, the cost of producing the anti-reflective structures is minimized while the efficiency of forming the diffractive optical structures and anti-reflective structures is maximized.

    摘要: In example embodiments. a waveguide apparatus is provided that may be used in a display device. The waveguide includes an in-coupler, an out-coupler, and at least a first eye-pupil expander along a first optical path from the in-coupler to the out-coupler. The in-coupler comprises a first diffraction grating and a second diffraction grating overlaying the first diffraction grating. wherein grating lines of the first and second diffraction gratings are parallel to one another. The first eye-pupil expander comprises a third diffraction grating and a fourth diffraction grating overlaying the third diffraction grating. The out-coupler comprises a fifth diffraction grating and a sixth diffraction grating overlaying the fifth diffraction grating.

    摘要: An optical system and a head mounted display are disclosed. The optical system comprises: a third lens, a second lens and a first lens arranged successively along a propagation direction of incident light. There are two adjacent Fresnel surfaces in the optical system, and at least one of the Fresnel surfaces has a curved base. The present disclosure provides a solution of short-focus and lightweight optical structure, in which, compared with a flat base, the use of Fresnel surface having a curved base can improve the imaging quality to a certain extent, and can reduce the total optical length and the total weight of the optical system.

    摘要: A hybrid lens includes a primary lens element having a pair of opposing optical surfaces and a secondary lens element disposed directly over at least one of the optical surfaces. The primary lens element may include a 3D-printed layer, and the secondary lens element may be over-formed by casting. An electronic component such as a dimming component, a waveguide component, or an eye-tracking component may be integrated into the hybrid lens.
