Tailored Light Outcoupling from Glass Plate with Arbitrarily Shaped Apertures

In modern imaging and display systems, apertures with different shapes may be encountered. For example, the in- and outcoupling apertures of the waveguide in near-to-eye displays often have to be tailored in certain shapes. With the region concept in VirtualLab Fusion, apertures with arbitrary shapes can be defined flexibly. As examples, several aperture shapes are presented. Situations with fully and partially illuminated apertures are shown as well.
