COUPLING A LENS TO AN OPTICAL FIBER FOR AUGMENTED OR VIRTUAL REALITY DISPLAYS

摘要

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.

1. A system for displaying virtual content to a user, comprising:
a plurality of optical fibers to project light associated with one or more frames of image data to be presented to the user, wherein an optical fiber core of the plurality of optical fiber cores is coupled to a lens, the lens configured to alter a diameter of the light beam projected by the scanning fiber, wherein the lens comprises a gradient refractive index.
