| abstract |
This disclosure concerns an interactive head-mounted eyepiece with an integrated processor for handling content for display and an integrated image source for introducing the content to an optical assembly through which the user views a surrounding environment and the displayed content, wherein the optical assembly comprises an optically flat film, disposed at an angle in front of a user's eye, that reflects a portion of the image light from the image source to a curved partially reflecting mirror. The curved partially reflecting mirror reflects a portion of the image light from the image source and transmits a portion of the scene light from a see-through view of the surrounding environment, so that a combined image comprised of portions of the reflected image light and the transmitted scene light is transmitted through the optically flat film and provided to the user's eye. |
