WAVEGUIDE ASSEMBLY TO DISPLAY IMAGES AT MULTIPLE FOCAL PLANES

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:
an image-generating source to provide one or more frames of image data in a time-sequential manner; a light modulator to project light associated with the one or more frames of image data; a waveguide assembly to receiving the projected light and deliver the light towards the user's eye, wherein the waveguide assembly comprises at least a first waveguide component configurable to modify light associated with a first frame of the image data such the light is perceived as coming from a first focal plane, and a second waveguide component configurable to modify light associated with a second frame of the image data such that the light is perceived as coming from a second focal plane, and wherein the first waveguide component and second waveguide component are stacked along a z-axis in front of the user's eye.
