Abstract
Aspects of the present invention relate to methods and systems for the see-through computer display systems with an extended field of view.
Claims20
A wearable device, comprising:
- a display having a field of view having an edge region and a center region;
- a processor adapted to present image content to a user of the wearable device via the display;
- a main image content optic for projecting the first portion of the image content in the center region of the field of view;
- an extended image content optic for projecting the first portion of the image content in the edge region of the field of view;
- a combiner for presenting image content to a user;
- and
- a collimating partial mirror,
- wherein:
- the combiner is configured to reflect image light toward the user's eye via the collimating partial mirror, and
- the image light is received at the combiner via one or more of the main image content optic and the extended image content optic.
7 more elements
A method of presenting image content to a user of a wearable device, comprising:
- presenting image content to a user of the wearable device via a display, the display having a field of view having an edge region and a center,
- wherein presenting the image content comprises:
- in accordance with a determination that presenting the image content comprises presenting a first portion of the image content in the center region of the field of view, projecting, by a main image content optic, the first portion of the image content in the center region of the field of view, and
- in accordance with a determination that presenting the image content comprises presenting the first portion in the edge region of the field of view, projecting, by an extended image content optic, the first portion of the image content in the edge region of the field of view, and
- receiving image light, at the combiner, via one or more of the main image content optic and the extended image content optic;
- and
- reflecting, by the combiner, image light to the user's eye via a collimating partial mirror.
4 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform a method, the method comprising:
- presenting image content to a user of a wearable device via a display, the display having a field of view having an edge region and a center,
- wherein presenting the image content comprises:
- in accordance with a determination that presenting the image content comprises presenting a first portion of the image content in the center region of the field of view, projecting, via a main image content optic, the first portion of the image content in the center region of the field of view;
- and
- in accordance with a determination that presenting the image content comprises presenting the first portion in the edge region of the field of view, projecting, by an extended image content optic, the first portion of the image content in the edge region of the field of view;
- receiving image light, at the combiner, via one or more of the main image content optic and the extended image content optic;
- and
- reflecting, by the combiner, image light to the user's eye via a collimating partial mirror.
