A large depth of focus (DOF) display provides an image in which the apparent focus plane is adjusted to track an accommodation (focus) of a viewer's eye(s) to more effectively convey depth in the image. A device is employed to repeatedly determine accommodation as a viewer's gaze within the image changes. In response, an image that includes an apparent focus plane corresponding to the level of accommodation of the viewer is provided on the large DOF display. Objects that are not at the apparent focus plane are made to appear blurred. The images can be rendered in real-time, or can be pre-rendered and stored in an array. The dimensions of the array can each correspond to a different variable. The images can alternatively be provided by a computer controlled, adjustable focus video camera in real-time.

The present invention is a head-mounted virtual display apparatus based on a cross-cavity optical configuration, in which a near-eye light deflecting element (LDE) is located in the peripheral field of view. Positioning of the near-eye LDE in the peripheral field of view provides the user simultaneously with "look toward" access to an inset magnified image of a miniature display and an unobstructed forward field of view of at least 35 degrees. Active and passive alignment means, including articulating connections and image warping electronics, allow correction of geometric distortion arising from folding of the optical train and / or embodiments based on off-axis optical configurations.

The present invention is a head-mounted virtual display apparatus based on a non-cross-cavity optical configuration, in which a near-eye light deflecting element (LDE) is located in the peripheral field of view. Positioning of the near-eye LDE in the peripheral field of view provides the user with simultaneous access to an inset magnified image of a miniature display and an unobstructed forward field of view of at least 35 degrees. Active and passive alignment means, including articulating connections and image warping electronics, allows for correction of geometric distortion arising from folding of the optical train, and orthogonal alignment of the virtual image plane with the optical axis between the user's eye and the virtual image plane.

Triple Screen Arcade is a video circuitry design that provides a low cost method for creating three video outputs that span a single large video bitmap area. The method uses low cost video controller chips intended for dual screen applications of Laptop PCs (personal computers) combined with an FPGA (field programmable gate array) and other electronic parts. Further a video driver methodology is used to make the process work well in common operating systems. The video product is used for three screen video arcade games, three screen flight simulators and three screen business applications. Three screen spanning using the single large memory map is possible with off-the-shelf high speed gaming and graphics computer programs. All three display data flows are vertically phased locked to reduce eye fatigue and to make frame to frame timing the same for all three displays, thus improving animations that span all three displays.

Disclosed is a system for a 3-dimensional display that includes at least one eyepiece having first and second eyepiece sockets, having a first display contained in said first eyepiece socket associated with a first eye, two eye cameras mounted such that a first eye camera tracks eye reference points of said first eye and a second eye camera tracks reference points of a second eye, a processor for providing overall control of said at least one eyepiece; a second display; and a main processor; signals are transmitted between said main processor and said at least one eyepiece, wherein said two eye cameras track said reference points, said eyepiece transceiver transmits said reference points to said main processor via said main transceiver, said main processor generates image data based on said reference points and transmits said image data to said displays to produce a 3-dimensional image.

A method and device for displaying electronic text on a screen is disclosed, comprising presenting text as a single word display of a particular duration plus a non-text gap, and continuing this single word duration plus gap presentation until all desired text has been sequentially displayed; wherein the speed of the text display is created by repetition of the duration plus gap, and wherein varying the gap relative to the duration creates a different flow of text presentation. The speed of the display is controllable by the reader using a control pad. This method and device permits text to be easily read on a limited viewing area.

A moveable platform for a laptop computer has an angled support base to angle the laptop keyboard and elevate the laptop display monitor. The angled support base forms an airgap between the moveable platform and the desktop to dissipate the heat from the laptop computer. A separate cooling fan system integral with the support base can also dissipate the laptop computer heat. Spherical roller assemblies on the bottom of the platform move the laptop computer around the desktop. The spherical roller assemblies have a Teflon™ spherical ball surrounded by a plurality of Delrin™ spherical ball bearings in a Nylon™ semi-spherical cavity. These non-metallic materials provide smooth quiet operation with minimal frictional resistance and are non-abrasive to the desktop surface. A braking mechanism at the front of the moveable platform lifts the front spherical roller assemblies from contact with the desktop to lock the moveable platform and laptop computer into position on the desktop.

A portable device embodying both sliding and rotating types is described. The portable device including: a main unit; a display unit sliding and horizontally rotating on a top surface of the main unit, and having a display on its top surface; and a keypad unit sliding in an opposite direction from the display unit and horizontally rotating on a bottom surface of the main unit and having an additional keypad which is provided on its top surface and externally exposed after rotating. Also, the portable device may be transformed into various operating modes by sliding and / or rotating of the display unit and the keypad unit, which are suitable for phone calling, game play and multimedia replay.

To provide a novel display device where display quality does not deteriorate. The display device includes a display portion configured to display a still image at a frame frequency of 30 Hz or lower. The display portion includes a driver circuit, a plurality of wirings, and a pixel portion. The pixel portion comprises a plurality of pixels. Each of the plurality of pixels comprises a transistor, a display element, and a capacitor. A channel is formed in an oxide semiconductor layer included in the transistor. A gate of the transistor is electrically connected to one of the plurality of wirings. The driver circuit performs scanning where the plurality of wirings in one of odd-numbered rows and even-numbered rows are sequentially selected and scanning where the plurality of wirings in the other of the odd-numbered rows and the even-numbered rows are sequentially selected.
