Abstract
In general, one aspect disclosed features a mixed reality eyewear, comprising: a frame configured to be worn by a wearer; a lens attached to the frame and aligned with an eye of the wearer; a display panel attached to the frame and configured to render an image not aligned with an eye of the wearer; and a deformable beam combiner attached to the frame between the lens and an eye of the wearer and configured to reflect the rendered image toward the eye of the wearer.

2 more elements
A mixed reality eyewear system, comprising:
- a contact lens configured to be worn by a wearer, the contact lens comprising:
- a central portion having a first polarization, and
- an outer portion surrounding the central portion and having a second polarization, wherein the second polarization is different from the first polarization;
- and
- mixed reality eyewear, comprising:
- a frame configured to be worn by the wearer;
- a lens attached to the frame and aligned with an eye of the wearer, wherein the lens has the second polarization;
- a display panel attached to the frame and configured to produce light representing an image not aligned with an eye of the wearer;
- a deformable beam combiner attached to the frame between the lens and an eye of the wearer and configured to reflect the rendered image toward the eye of the wearer;
- and
- a polarizer disposed between the display panel and the deformable beam combiner, wherein the polarizer is configured to polarize the light representing the rendered image with the first polarization.
