Light field display

A superstereoscopic display with enhanced off-angle separation includes a first light source; a lenticular lens optically coupled to the first light source that, with the first light source, generates a first light output having viewing angle dependency; and a high-index optical volume optically coupled to the lenticular lens.

A retroreflecting display that enables the formation of a real image in free space includes a first light source that generates a first light output; a first beam splitter module; and a retroreflector module opposite the first light source.

Advanced retroreflecting aerial displays

A persistent image retroreflecting display that enables the formation of a real image in free space includes a first light source that generates a polarized light output; a retroreflector module adjacent a first side of the first light source; a quarter waveplate coupled to the retroreflector module and adjacent the first light source; and a reflective polarizer positioned between the first light source and a viewer of the display.

A three-dimensional volumetric display includes a light source that generates a two-dimensional image output and a transparent scattering volume, coupled to the light source on a first face of the scattering volume, that scatters the image output of the light source in a direction perpendicular to the light axis of the output of the light source; where the scattering volume comprises a three-dimensional array of scattering elements arranged in a plurality of scattering planes tilted relative to the first face of the scattering volume.

Various embodiments of the present invention generally relate to an automated inflation device configured for inflating an inflatable structure, which can then be used&#x2014;for example&#x2014;as a protective packaging material. As described in detail herein, various embodiments of the inflation device are configured to be mounted on a wall for convenient installation and use. According to certain embodiments, the inflation device is configured to automatically inflate multiple inflatable chambers in the inflatable structure using an efficient inflation-at-a-distance method. Moreover, various embodiments are provided with one or more user input controls and/or remote sensors to enable a user to conveniently request inflation of a particular number of inflatable chambers or a particular length of the inflatable structure.

Automated inflation device

Laser-etched 3D volumetric display

One variation of a method for manufacturing a physical volumetric representation of a virtual three-dimensional object includes: slicing the virtual three-dimensional object into a set of virtual layers of discrete virtual thickness; for each virtual layer in the set of virtual layers, selecting a set of cross-sections of a portion of the virtual three-dimensional object within the virtual layer, setting an opacity level for each cross-section, combining the set of cross-sections into a composite cross-section based on an opacity level set for each cross-section, and printing the composite cross-section onto a dominant face of a substrate in a set of substrates; and assembling the set of substrates into a stack, each substrate in the set of substrates positioned within the stack according to a position within the virtual three-dimensional object of a cross-section printed on the substrate.
