Abstract:
In various embodiments, a wearable component configured to be worn on a head of a user is disclosed. The wearable component can comprise a wearable support and an electronic component coupled to or disposed within the wearable support. A thermal management structure can be provided in thermal communication with the electronic component. The thermal management structure can be configured to transfer heat from the electronic component away from the head of the user when the wearable support is disposed on the head of the user.

Abstract:
Disclosed is an improved diffraction structure for 3D display systems. The improved diffraction structure includes an intermediate layer that resides between a waveguide substrate and a top grating surface. The top grating surface comprises a first material that corresponds to a first refractive index value, the underlayer comprises a second material that corresponds to a second refractive index value, and the substrate comprises a third material that corresponds to a third refractive index value. According to additional embodiments, improved approaches are provided to implement deposition of imprint materials onto a substrate, which allow for very precise distribution and deposition of different imprint patterns onto any number of substrate surfaces.

Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for operating a head-mounted display system based on user perceptibility. The display system may be an augmented reality display system configured to provide virtual content on a plurality of depth planes by presenting the content with different amounts of wavefront divergence. Some embodiments include obtaining an image captured by an imaging device of the display system. Whether a threshold measure or more of motion blur is determined to be exhibited in one or more regions of the image. Based on a determination that the threshold measure or more of motion blur is exhibited in one or more regions of the image, one or more operating parameters of the wearable display are adjusted. Example operating parameter adjustments comprise adjusting the depth plane on which content is presented (e.g., by switching from a first depth plane to a second depth plane), adjusting a rendering quality, and adjusting power characteristics of the system.
Abstract:
An eyepiece unit with optical filters includes a set of waveguide layers including a first waveguide layer and a second waveguide layer. The first waveguide layer is disposed in a first lateral plane and includes a first incoupling diffractive element disposed at a first lateral position, a first waveguide, and a first outcoupling diffractive element. The second waveguide layer is disposed in a second lateral plane adjacent to the first lateral plane and includes a second incoupling diffractive element disposed at a second lateral position, a second waveguide, and a second outcoupling diffractive element. The eyepiece unit also includes a set of optical filters including a first optical filter positioned at the first lateral position and operable to attenuate light outside a first spectral band and a second optical filter positioned at the second lateral position and operable to attenuate light outside a second spectral band.
Abstract:
An augmented reality display system comprises a passable world model data comprises a set of map points corresponding to one or more objects of the real world. The augmented reality system also comprises a processor to communicate with one or more individual augmented reality display systems to pass a portion of the passable world model data to the one or more individual augmented reality display systems, wherein the piece of the passable world model data is passed based at least in part on respective locations corresponding to the one or more individual augmented reality display systems.
