Abstract
This work demonstrates a full‐color optical image combiner for AR
and heads‐up displays. The novel feature of the device is that the
angle of incident light of the computer‐generated image reflected
by it, can vary over a large range. It achieves improved
performance by using a combination of polarization interference
filters (PIF), quarter wave retarders (QWR), and polarization
volume holograms (PVH). Details of an example design and its
performance are presented.
