Abstract
An optical system is provided. The optical system includes an image generator configured to output image signals for configuring a virtual image, and an infrared (IR) image signal, a multipath optical element configured to guide the beams, a diffraction grating configured to diffract parts of the output beams and transmit other parts of the output beams, an outcoupler configured to allow the diffracted beams to exit the multipath optical element, a first camera configured to sense a pattern of reflection of an IR beam exiting the outcoupler, an IR filter diffraction element, a second camera configured to sense a pattern of reflection of the IR beam projected toward the real world, and a processor configured to determine a line of sight of a user based on the pattern sensed by the first camera, and to determine depth information of the object based on the pattern sensed by the second camera.
