Abstract

Thin, multi-focal plane, augmented reality eyewear are disclosed. An example lens structure includes a two-layer waveguide including a first waveguide and a second waveguide. The two-layer waveguide produces a virtual object based on light from an image source. The two-layer waveguide causes the virtual object to appear at a first virtual object focal plane. The first waveguide propagates more of the light in a first wavelength range than in a second wavelength range. The second waveguide propagates more of the light in the second wavelength range than in the first wavelength range. The first wavelength range is associated with longer wavelengths than the second wavelength range. The lens structure further includes an optical lens to cause the virtual object to appear at a second virtual object focal plane associated with a shorter apparent distance from a user than the first virtual object focal plane.
