Application: Augmented reality display device (Patent ID: US20240168293A1)
The patent filed by Acer Inc. describes an augmented reality display device that includes a display, a polarizing beam splitter, and a reflective liquid crystal panel. The device is designed to modulate the polarized direction of an image beam and reflect it back to the user's eye through a series of modulating and reflecting regions on the liquid crystal panel. The device also includes additional components such as a polarizer, lens, and optical splitter to enhance the user experience.
The claims associated with the patent detail specific configurations and features of the AR display device, such as the size range of the modulating and reflecting regions, the use of a polarizer and lens in the device, and the inclusion of a camera for obtaining the user's focusing distance. The patent also mentions the use of different types of displays, such as OLED, LCD, or micro LED, and the specific functionality of the polarizing beam splitter in reflecting and transmitting the image beam. Additionally, the patent highlights the use of a liquid-crystal-on-silicon panel for the reflective liquid crystal panel and the creation of a quarter-wave plate effect through the configuration of the liquid crystal alignment direction.
