Abstract

An augmented reality display device includes a near-eye display configured to present imagery to a user eye. A camera is configured to capture light from a real-world environment and produce output useable to contribute to the imagery presented to the user eye via the near-eye display. The camera includes an aperture configured to receive the light from the real-world environment and an image sensor configured to respond to the light received from the real-world environment by generating sensor output signals useable to produce images on the near-eye display depicting the real-world environment. One or more optical elements provide an optical path for light from the aperture to the image sensor, the optical path having a length that is within a threshold of a distance between the user eye and the aperture of the camera.
