20110007399 | Head-up Display with Optical Combination Providing Protection Against Solar Illumination - The general field of the invention is that of head-up display systems HUD, protected from solar illumination. An HUD comprises at least one display, an optical system and at least one semi-reflecting plate called a combiner, said optical system and said combiner being arranged so that the image on the display is collimated, the display emitting in at least one first optical spectrum of first spectral width, the display being arranged so as to withstand illumination of a predetermined level. In the display according to the invention, the lateral chromatism of the optical system is sufficiently strong for the level of solar illumination received by the display to be always less than said predetermined level and said lateral chromatism is sufficiently weak for the dispersion of the first spectrum emitted by the display and seen by a user to be less than or equal to the resolution limit of the human eye. | 01-13-2011 |
20110255057 | Multi-Projector Servo-Controlled Display System - A display system includes at least two devices for projecting images and a single screen, each projection device including an image source and projection optics arranged so as to project the image delivered by the image source onto a display region of the screen so that the various images projected from various image sources form a single image without obvious discontinuities, said display system having a device for monitoring and servo-controlling the alignment of the various images. The monitoring and servo-control device is such that the image delivered by each image source includes at least one detection pattern so that the projected image of said detection pattern meets the screen in a detection region located outside of the image display region, the screen having a plurality of light sensing elements, each light sensing element being associated with a projection device and placed so that the projected image of a detection pattern delivered by said projection device forms on its light-sensitive surface, the sensing element being arranged so as to determine the position and/or the orientation of said detection pattern and its photometric properties. | 10-20-2011 |
20120086667 | FORCE MEASURING METHOD FOR A MULTIMODE TOUCHSCREEN DEVICE - A force measuring method for a touchscreen device makes it possible to measure the force applied to the touchscreen. The principle of the invention consists in measuring the displacement of the two plates supporting the conduction lines and columns of the touchscreen, a displacement which is proportional to the force applied. The displacement of the plates is known by analysis of the variation of the capacitive impedance induced by the presence of an actuator to displace the plates. | 04-12-2012 |
20120327034 | Touch-sensitive system with optical transmitters and receivers - The general field of the invention is that of optical touch-sensitive systems mounted above areas of display surfaces. The system comprises at least two light sources arranged to produce above a display surface a “luminous layer” covering said surface, a first imager and a second imager the optical fields of which cover the surface. The sources are separate from the imagers. When a first object is situated above the surface, first and second luminous images of said object are captured by the first imager and the second imager, the system including analysis means enabling by triangulation of the known positions of the first and second luminous images, determination of the position of this first object above the display surface. In more elaborate configurations, the system comprises a plurality of sources of illumination and imagers enabling coverage of complex surfaces, enabling “multi-touch” detection or securing the detection functions. | 12-27-2012 |
20140062839 | DUAL-FACE TRANSPARENT VIEWING SCREEN - The general field of the invention is that of hybrid viewing devices comprising several screens of different nature. The device according to the invention comprises a stack comprising three superimposed viewing screens of the same dimensions and means for generating and processing images, the first viewing screen being a transparent emissive matrix screen, the second viewing screen being a matrix screen with controlled transparency, the third viewing screen being a transparent emissive matrix screen, the second viewing screen being disposed between the first viewing screen and the third viewing screen so as to be able to block all or part of the image displayed by the first viewing screen and/or the third viewing screen, the stack of three screens thus being arranged so as to be able to display an image on its first face and an image on its second face, the two images being able to be identical. | 03-06-2014 |
20140160014 | DISPLAY SYSTEM CONTAINING AN ADAPTIVE SEMI-TRANSPARENT DISPLAY DEVICE AND MEANS FOR DETECTING THE LANDSCAPE VIEWED BY THE USER - The general field of the invention is that of display systems comprising an electronic calculator containing first image generation means and an associated semi-transparent display device, said display device intended to be arranged in front of an outside landscape. The display device according to the invention consists of two overlaid semi-transparent flat display screens, a photo-sensitive sensor and a position detection system. The first display screen is passive, its transmission rate being controlled by the first image generation means, the second display screen is active, its light emission being controlled by the first image generation means. The image generated is displayed either on the first display screen, or on the second display screen as a function of the outside landscape luminance information output by the photo-sensitive sensor and the position detection. | 06-12-2014 |
20140160154 | DISPLAY SYSTEM HAVING A SEMITRANSPARENT DISPLAY DEVICE DISPLAYING SYMBOLS WITH A CONTRASTED OUTLINE - The general field of the invention is that of display systems comprising means for generating graphic symbols and an associated semitransparent display device. The display device according to the invention has two overlaid semitransparent flat display screens, one passive and the other active, each symbol displayed on the semitransparent display device comprising a first representation and a second representation. The first representation is displayed on the first display screen with a low transmission rate for the light and with a predetermined first size. The second representation is displayed on the second display screen in the same place as the first representation, with a luminance and a predetermined second size that is smaller than the first size so that the second representation is overlaid on the first representation and the displayed symbol appears bright with a dark border. | 06-12-2014 |
20140160577 | OPTICAL GUIDE FOR COLLIMATED IMAGES WITH OPTICAL BEAM DOUBLER, AND ASSOCIATED OPTICAL DEVICE - The general field of the invention is that of optical guides for collimated images comprising a first and a second image conductor functioning by total reflection, each conductor comprising a plurality of plates that are planar, semi-reflective, mutually parallel and inclined with respect to the plane of the external faces of the image conductors. The two conductors are arranged so as to deliver a collimated image to a large pupil. The optical guide according to the invention comprises an optical beam doubler element having substantially the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped. In its basic version, it comprises four external planar facets, two internal semi-reflective planar mirrors, said mirrors being mutually perpendicular, a planar entrance face intended to receive a collimated image, and an exit face adhesively bonded to the injection section of one of the image conductors. The invention also relates to the whole of the display device associated with this optical guide. | 06-12-2014 |
