Title: David A. Doyle and Curved-Display Innovation.

Introduction

David A. Doyle is an inventor associated with Needham, Massachusetts. His work includes an invention addressing how images appear through curved display surfaces and how optical structures can help preserve their color.

Latest Patents

The provided information identifies one patent associated with Doyle: “Electronic Devices with Curved Display Surfaces.” The invention describes an electronic device with a pixel-array display beneath a cover layer that has a planar central area and a curved peripheral edge. From an on-axis viewing angle, the image is viewable through both areas. From an off-axis angle, part of the image is viewed through the curved edge, where it may develop an unwanted color cast. The patent describes possible compensation structures, including a guest-host liquid crystal layer with anisotropic colored-light absorption, a diffuser layer, and other optical structures. Doyle is credited with 1 patent in the information provided.

Career Highlights

Doyle’s listed patent focuses on improving the viewing experience of electronic devices with curved display covers. Its proposed optical approaches address color distortion that can occur when viewers see display content at an angle through a curved edge.

Collaborations

The provided information lists Sameer Pandya and Daniel J. Barrett as Doyle’s coworkers. It does not specify their roles in the patent or the nature of their collaboration.

Conclusion

David A. Doyle’s identified patent explores ways to reduce color cast in images viewed through curved display edges, contributing to the design of more consistent electronic displays.
