A wide FOV imaging system () includes an objective lens (), a convergent reflective element () positioned proximate an intermediate image () formed by the objective lens, and a re-imaging lens () for re-imaging the intermediate image. The present invention significantly improves image fidelity while minimizing optical components by utilizing a convergent reflective element proximate the intermediate image to reverse the propagation of aberrations produced by the objective lens () to, as a result, significantly cancel or reduce the aberrations contributed by the re-imaging lens.

A pair of optical prisms arranged in a complementary relationship provides for anamorphic magnification and cooperates with a refractive or diffractive cylindrical lens element, the later of which generates an aberration that at least partially compensates an aberration generated by the pair of optical prisms. The refractive or diffractive cylindrical lens element is rotated out of normal with respect to the optic axis of the system so as to provide for reflecting stray light away from the optic axis.

Disclosed herein is a method and related device for improving energy performance and substantially preventing degradation of a chemical-to-electrical energy conversion process of an energy storage device (), comprising the steps of: mechanically exciting chemical reaction products within the energy storage device () at energy levels proximate which covalent bonds with a matrix () of the energy storage device () would form absent excitation, thereby substantially maintaining ionic bonding between the chemical reaction products and the matrix () and substantially preventing the chemical reaction products from covalently bonding with the matrix (); and introducing the mechanical excitations into the energy storage device () via an active material () mechanically-responsive to electromagnetic signals, in response to an electromagnetic signal.

A supplemental optic system supported by a forward support structure azimuthally hinged from a forward portion of a track of an overhead support system cooperates with a light projector operatively coupled to the track. The track is suspended from a slider operatively coupled to a support post depending from an associated ceiling mount structure. The position of the slider within the track provides for minimizing the torque on the support post as a result of the distribution of weights of the light projector and the supplemental optic system.

An optical subsystem of a near-eye display system provides for projecting light of a virtual image of image content to an eye location, and provides for collecting light of the virtual image onto an exit pupil on a surface proximate to an outer surface of an eye when at the eye location. A subpupil modulator within the aperture in cooperation with the optical subsystem provides for forming a plurality of subpupils within the exit pupil, and provides for less than all of the light of the virtual image associated with one or more less than all of the plurality of subpupils to be projected to the eye location. In various independent aspects: at least two subpupils overlap by at least 20 percent; and the intensities of the subpupils are individually and independently controlled.

A composite image displayed on an image display incorporates a first portion of image content, and incorporates one or more second portions of image content within corresponding one or more picture regions of the composite image. One or more images properties selected from a resolution, a level of magnification, a measure of pan, a size, and a scale of each of the first and second image portions can be modified, and the modification of an image property of the one or more second portions of image content entails receiving either supplemental or replacement image data that provides for displaying a corresponding modified version of the corresponding one or more second portions of image content, the modification of which can be independent of the first portion of image content and is responsive to an action by the user that indicates at least an interest in or focus on the one or more second portions of image content.

Initial low-quality images of a progressively-displayed high-definition image are masked with corresponding progressively-revealing mask filters or masking algorithms to realistically obscure such low quality and therefore to provide a realistically appearing progressive presentation of the high-definition image.
