Hybrid photonic vr/ar systems

Abstract

A VR/AR system, method, architecture includes an augmentor that concurrently receives and processes real world image constituent signals while producing synthetic world image constituent signals and then interleaves/augments these signals for further processing. In some implementations, the real world signals (pass through with possibility of processing by the augmentor) are converted to IR (using, for example, a false color map) and interleaved with the synthetic world signals (produced in IR) for continued processing including visualization (conversion to visible spectrum), amplitude/bandwidth processing, and output shaping for production of a set of display image precursors intended for a HVS.
