Claim 18:
19. A method of balancing an intensity of display light relative to an intensity of incident light in an optical device, the method comprising:
receiving incident light at a first surface of a semiconductor chip in an optical device, the semiconductor chip having transparent regions through which the incident light is transmitted, and the semiconductor chip having a plurality of electro-optical circuits that include light emitters and detectors, each detector of the detectors being associated with one or more of the light emitters;
detecting, by the detectors, a signal representing an intensity of the incident light; and
outputting display light from the light emitters, an intensity of the display light output by the one or more light emitters being determined using the signal detected by the associated detector, and wherein the intensity of the display light output by the one or more light emitters augments the incident light to amplify or correct the incident light, based on the signal detected by the associated detector.
