CORRECTOR PLATES FOR HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A display system, comprising:
- a display configured to emit virtual content;
a collimator element configured to collimate light emitted by the display; and
a corrector plate disposed between the collimator element and an eyepiece, wherein the corrector plate compensates for sub-optimal collimation of off-axis light at an edge of a field of view (FOV) corresponding to the display system.

Abstract
The embodiments herein use a corrector plate or a light field display in an AR/VR display device to compensate for sub-optimal collimation at the edge of the FOV. In one embodiment, the corrector plate is disposed between the collimator and the viewer so that the light at the edge of the FOV can be corrected so that the aberrations mentioned above do not occur. In another embodiment, rather than using a corrector plate, the AR/VR display device can include a light field display that can use color intensity to pre-distort emitted light to compensate for sub-optimal collimation at the edge of the FOV. In this manner, the AR/VR display device can mitigate aberrations or distortions as the user moves her eyes relative to the display device.

9. A method comprising:
-
emitting virtual content using a display; collimating light emitted by the display corresponding to the virtual content; compensating for sub-optimal collimation of off-axis light in the collimated light at an edge of a field of view; and outputting the virtual content after compensating for the sub-optimal collimation. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A display system, comprising:
-
a display configured to emit virtual content, wherein an intensity of light emitted by each emitter in the display is controllable in multiple directions, wherein the display is configured to, by controlling the intensity of a plurality of the emitters, pre-distort light corresponding to the virtual content to compensate for sub-optimal collimation of off-axis light at an edge of a FOV; a collimator element configured to collimate the pre-distorted light emitted by the display. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
