Abstract
Configurations are disclosed for presenting virtual reality and augmented reality experiences to users. The system may comprise an image-generating source to provide one or more frames of image data in a time-sequential manner, a light modulator configured to transmit light associated with the one or more frames of image data, a substrate to direct image information to a user's eye, wherein the substrate houses a plurality of reflectors, a first reflector of the plurality of reflectors to reflect transmitted light associated with a first frame of image data at a first angle to the user's eye, and a second reflector to reflect transmitted light associated with a second frame of the image data at a second angle to the user's eye.
Claims10
A system for displaying virtual content to a user, comprising:
- a light generating source to provide light associated with one or more frames of image data, wherein the light generating source comprises a plurality of microprojectors;
- a waveguide configured to receive light from the plurality of microprojectors and transmit light to a user's eye.
