Abstract
Scanning mirror systems for display devices are disclosed. A display device comprises a light source and a scanning mirror system coupled to a support structure, the scanning mirror system comprising a mirror, a flexure supporting the mirror, and a first anchor and a second anchor each coupled to the support structure. The scanning mirror system further includes a first arm extending between the first anchor and a first portion of the flexure, a second arm extending between the first anchor and a second portion of the flexure, and also includes a third arm, a fourth arm, and an actuator system. Each of the first arm and the second arm define a respective gap that extends inwardly from an outer perimeter of the scanning mirror system. The actuator system is configured to actuate the arms to vary a scan angle of the mirror.
