Patent ID: 10527863

Abstract:
A head-mounted display (HMD) system includes an optical arrangement; a first image panel, wherein the optical arrangement directs image light from the first image panel along a first optical pathway; a second image panel, wherein the optical arrangement directs image light from the second image panel along a second optical pathway different from the first optical pathway; and a central image panel located between the first image panel and the second image panel, the central image panel including a first portion and a second portion. The optical arrangement directs light from the first portion and the second portion of the central image panel along different optical pathways. The optical arrangement is configured such that light from the first image panel and the first portion of central image panel are emitted from the HMD system in a combined fashion in a first eye direction, and light from the second image panel and the second portion of the central image panel are emitted from the HMD system in a combined fashion in a second eye direction different from the first eye direction.
