A display system includes an interface unit, a head worn display in wireless communication with the interface unit, and a first tracker sensor remote from a head of a user and configured to wirelessly sense a head pose and provide first head tracking data to the interface unit. The interface unit is remote from the head worn display. The display system also includes a second tracker sensor associated with the head of the user and configured to provide second head tracking data associated with the head pose to the head worn display. The interface unit is configured to receive the second head tracking data from the head worn display via at least one wireless link and provide video information for display on the head worn display via the at least one wireless link.

Systems and methods for interfacing with head worn display system

A display assembly includes a frame assembly, a display module having a display housing and a touch screen display disposed at least partially within the display housing such that the display module and touch screen display form an environmentally sealed exterior, and an actuator assembly. The display module is coupled to the frame assembly via the actuator assembly such that the display module is configured to provide haptic feedback to users via the touch screen display based on operation of the actuator assembly.

Haptic touch feedback displays having double bezel design

An apparatus for controlling an aviation display is provided. The apparatus includes processing electronics configured to cause the aviation display to switch, in response to a user input, a first format for aviation data and a second format for aviation data. The first format includes a full format image of live data and the second format includes a scaled representation of the live data.

Touch interfaces and controls for aviation displays

A method and system for autostereoscopic display of stereoscopic images may include: illuminating at least one light source; configuring a lightguide to direct light from at least one light source to a first focal point; configuring a transmissive optical display according to a first stereoscopic image of a stereoscopic image pair; configuring the lightguide to direct light from at least one light source to a second focal point; and configuring the transmissive optical display according to a second stereoscopic image of the stereoscopic image pair.

Autostereoscopic display

An apparatus for controlling an aviation display is provided. The apparatus includes processing electronics configured to cause a first representation of a first aviation data to be shown in a first format of the first aviation data, and to cause, in response to a first user input in relation to the first format, a second representation of the first aviation data to be shown in a second format of the first aviation data, the second format of the first aviation data comprising a first predefined location on a first region of a display.

A stereoscopic display for displaying 3D images in the form of a stereo image pair. The stereoscopic display may include, but is not limited to, a display panel, a polarization layer, and an electro-optical panel. The display panel may include at least a first pixel and a second pixel. The polarization layer may include a first portion associated with the first pixel and a second portion associated with the second pixel.

Full-resolution single-LCD stereoscopic display

An apparatus for viewing stereoscopic images may include, but is not limited to: a first viewing lens including a first polarization layer; a second viewing lens including a second polarization layer; and one or more birefringence compensation layers. Further, the apparatus may be viewing glasses including a frame wearable by a user.

Apparatus for viewing 3D LCD displays

The present invention is a display assembly in which a backlight module generates light beams via a light source. The light source provides the light beams to a light guide of the backlight module. The light guide then provides the light beams to a display panel of the display assembly for illuminating the display panel. One or more optical elements are implemented between the light source and an insertion edge of the light guide for promoting improved light insertion efficiency for the display assembly. Further, the optical element(s) may promote improvements in color quality, luminance and/or uniformity of graphics or graphical depictions displayed by the display assembly.

System for improvement of light insertion into a light guide from light-emitting diodes (LEDs)

An apparatus for controlling an aviation display is provided. The apparatus includes processing electronics configured to cause a first representation of aviation data to be shown in a first format and to cause, in response to a user input relative to the first format, a second representation of the aviation data to be shown in a second format, in a predefined location on a region of an aircraft display.
