Abstract
An optical display, including a first waveguide having a first set of surfaces, an input grating, a fold grating, and an output grating; an image input image node assembly; and a prismatic relay optics is provided. The prismatic relay optics may be configured to be optomechanically connected to the waveguide and the input image node assembly. The optical display is may also be configured to operate alone or as integrated with a headpiece to be used as a HUD. The HUD may have a first and a second configuration wherein the waveguide is decoupled or coupled.
Claims (27)
1. A waveguide display comprising:
an input image node (IIN) providing light of a first wavelength over an angular range;
a first waveguide comprising at least one input grating configured to couple light from the IIN into a total internal reflection (TIR) path in the first waveguide;
at least one grating for providing beam expansion in at least one direction and extracting light from the first waveguide; and
wherein the IIN comprises a spatially-varying numerical aperture component which forms a spatially varying numerical aperture across the angular range of the IIN to provide uniform illumination at an eyebox of the waveguide display.
2. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the at least one grating for providing beam expansion and extracting light from the first waveguide comprises at least one fold grating configured to provide pupil expansion in a first direction and at least one output grating configured to provide pupil expansion in a second direction different than the first direction and to cause the light to exit the first waveguide.
3. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the at least one input grating and/or the at least one grating is switchable between a diffracting state and a non-diffracting state.
4. The waveguide display of claim 1 , further comprising a wavefront distortion compensation element.
5. The waveguide display of claim 1 , further comprising an opto-mechanical interface for detachment of the first waveguide from the IIN.
6. The waveguide display of claim 1 , further comprising at least one birefringence compensation layer.
7. The waveguide display of claim 1 , further comprising a second waveguide, wherein:
the at least one input grating of the first waveguide is configured to couple first wavelength light; and
the second waveguide comprises at least one input grating configured to couple a second wavelength light from the IIN into a TIR path in the second waveguide and at least one grating for providing beam expansion in at least one direction and extracting the light from the second waveguide.
8. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the first waveguide is curved.
9. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the IIN comprises a spatial light modulator and a projection lens for projecting image modulated first wavelength light over an angular range.
10. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the IIN comprises a laser scanner for projecting image modulated first wavelength light over an angular range.
11. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the at least one input grating multiplexes at least one of color or angle or is a rolled k-vector grating.
12. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the at least one input grating comprises a grating selected from the group consisting of: a Bragg grating, a switchable Bragg grating, a grating recorded in a liquid crystal and polymer-based material, and a surface relief grating.
13. The waveguide display of claim 1 , further comprising at least one of: an eye tracker, a dynamic focus lens disposed within said IIN, a dynamic focus lens disposed in proximity to one of the total internal refection surfaces of the first waveguide, a beam homogenizer, or at least one grating index image transfer waveguide portion.
14. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the spatially-varying numerical aperture component comprises a wedge lens, a curved wedge lens, an array of a plurality of prismatic elements having differing prism angles, or an array of lenses with various apertures and optical powers.
15. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the spatially-varying numerical aperture component comprises a scatter element integrated with a surface texture.
16. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the spatially-varying numerical aperture component comprises a substrate having varied scattering properties.
17. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the spatially-varying numerical aperture component comprises a birefringent substrate having a spatially varying birefringence.
18. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the spatially-varying numerical aperture component is a thin substrate coated with a polymerized liquid crystals.
19. The waveguide display of claim 18 , wherein the polymerized liquid crystals comprise liquid crystalline monomers containing reactive acrylate end groups which form a rigid network.
20. The waveguide display of claim 1 , wherein the spatially-varying numerical aperture component is an array of diffractive elements each characterized by a unique K-vector and diffraction efficiency angular bandwidth.
21. The waveguide display of claim 20 , wherein the spatially-varying numerical aperture component comprises a Bragg hologram recorded in a holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal material.
