Focus adjusting virtual reality headset
Douglas Robert Lanman,Ryan Michael Ebert,Alexander Jobe Fix,William Aaron Nicholls,Michael Sean Mounier,Robert Dale Cavin +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a varifocal element adjusts the focal length of an optics block so the optics block is focused at the plane of focus, which keeps the user's eyes in a zone of comfort as vergence and accommodation change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural supersampling for real-time rendering
Lei Xiao,Salah Nouri,Matt Chapman,Alexander Jobe Fix,Douglas Robert Lanman,Anton S. Kaplanyan +5 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates high fidelity and temporally stable results in real-time, even in the highly challenging 4 × 4 upsampling scenario, significantly outperforming existing superresolution and temporal antialiasing work.
Patent
Autofocus virtual reality headset
TL;DR: In this paper, a scene presented by a headset is adjusted to correct for distortion from optical errors of an optics block in the headset, and the scene is pre-distorted when presented based on previously modeled distortion of the optics block.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design and fabrication of freeform holographic optical elements
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a pipeline for the design, optimization, and fabrication of complex, customized holographic optical elements (HOEs) that enhances their imaging performance and enables new applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
DeepFocus: learned image synthesis for computational displays
TL;DR: DeepFocus is introduced, a generic, end-to-end convolutional neural network designed to efficiently solve the full range of computational tasks for accommodation-supporting HMDs, and is demonstrated to accurately synthesize defocus blur, focal stacks, multilayer decompositions, and multiview imagery using only commonly available RGB-D images.
