Modeling of a “HoloLens 1”-Type Layout with Light Guide Component

Most innovative augmented and mixed reality devices nowadays are based on light-guide or wave-guide configurations in combination with microstructures to couple light in and out. VirtualLab Fusion is capable of the detailed modeling of such devices by applying our unique physical optics approach, which includes all effects of interest (e.g. coherence, polarization and diffraction). We demonstrate this capability by modeling a device of a simple “HoloLens 1”-type (1D-1D pupil expander) layout with a Light Guide component capable of guiding light with a 32° × 18° field of view.
