Abstract

Various optical eyepieces have been recently proposed for augmented reality head-mounted display. Most of optical eyepieces are based on the reflective optical element including half convex mirror, free form optics and diffractive optical element. We present the transmissive type optical eyepiece: index-matched anisotropic crystal. Also, to compensate the long focal length which is an inherent drawback of index-matched anisotropic crystal, a lightguide is applied to the system. The experimental results and field-of-view analysis are presented to show the feasibility of the proposed idea.
