Super-resolution displays and methods of operating the same
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- generating a first lower resolution image and a second lower resolution image from a higher resolution image, the first lower resolution image and the second lower resolution image each having a resolution corresponding with a resolution of a light-emitting portion of a display assembly in a head-mounted display, the higher resolution image having a higher resolution than the light-emitting portion;
emitting light based on the first lower resolution image from a pixel of the light-emitting portion at a first location in the display assembly in the head-mounted display;
physically translating the light-emitting portion to position the pixel at a second different location in the display assembly in the head-mounted display, the second different location being previously occupied by another pixel of the light-emitting portion; and
emitting light based on the second lower resolution image from the pixel of the light-emitting portion at the second different location in the display assembly in the head-mounted display.

6. A display assembly comprising:
-
a light-emitting portion configured to emit light from a pixel at a first time and at a first location in the display assembly based on a first lower resolution image generated from a higher resolution image, the first lower resolution image having a resolution corresponding with a resolution of the light-emitting portion, the higher resolution image having a higher resolution than the light-emitting portion; a movement to physically translate the light-emitting portion of the display assembly to emit light from the pixel at a second time and at a second different location in the display assembly based on a second lower resolution image generated from the higher resolution image, the second lower resolution image having a resolution corresponding with the resolution of the light-emitting portion; and a second movement to physically translate the light-emitting portion of the display assembly to emit light from the pixel at a third time and at a third different location in the display assembly based on a third lower resolution image generated from the higher resolution image. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A display assembly for use in a display, the display assembly comprising:
-
a light-emitting portion configured to emit light at a first time from a pixel at a first location in the display based on a first lower resolution image generated from a higher resolution image, the first lower resolution image having a resolution corresponding with a resolution of the light-emitting portion, the higher resolution image having a higher resolution than the light-emitting portion; and a layer configurable to; direct light emitted from the pixel at a second time at a second different location in the display based on a second lower resolution image generated from the higher resolution image, the second lower resolution image having a resolution corresponding with the resolution of the light-emitting portion and the layer including a liquid crystal material having a refractive index controllable to selectively emit light at the second location rather than at the first locations and direct light emitted from the pixel at a third time at a third different location in the display based on a third lower resolution image generated from the higher resolution image. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
