Abstract
A light projector for an augmented reality headset is disclosed. First and second optical arrangements receive light from a polarising beam splitter so that light is reflected, focused and directed back towards the polarising beam splitter from each optical arrangement. The first and second optical arrangements comprise first and second mirrors and first and second quarter-wave plates. The polarising beam splitter receives and combines light from the first and second optical arrangements so that the combined light, which is unpolarised, is provided to an exit pupil. The first and second optical arrangements are angled relative to one another so that the image from the first optical arrangement is aligned with the image from the second optical arrangement.
