Displays

Summary: We present a new optical design for see-through near-eye displays that is simple, compact, varifocal, and provides a wide field of view with clear peripheral vision and large eyebox. Key to this effort is a novel see-through rear-projection screen.

Summary: Retinal 3D provides virtual images with focus cues by generating the localized light field on the pupil, to be directly projected on the retina. Pupil tracked light field generation reduces the needed information / computation load as well as provides the eye-box that overcomes drawback of retinal projection type displays.

Summary: We computationally design pairs of diffractive optical elements that encode multiple holograms or target images under different geometric alignments or DOE pairings. By changing the geometric alignment or pairing different DOEs, the individual encoded holograms can be de-multiplexed, further led to the corresponding target images with per-determined illumination.
