Abstract

A personal object such as a ring or wristwatch includes an integrated femtoprojector that operates as a mini viewer. The object includes an object body (such as a ring body or watch head) that may be wearable. A display is inset in the object body and is viewable through a window from a position external to the object body. Projection optics may be inset in the object body in an optical path between the display and the window. The projection optics are structured to magnify images produced by the display such that projected images are focused on a retina of a person when viewed from a viewing distance within a range of zero to two inches. A battery internal to the object body provides power to the display via a bus.
