Abstract

A full-color see-through near-eye holographic display is proposed with 80° field of view (FOV) and an expanded eye-box. The system is based on a holographic optical element (HOE) to achieve a large FOV while the image light is focused at the entrance to human pupil and the image of entire field enters human eye. As we know, one of the major limitations of the large FOV holographic display system is the small eye-box that needs to be expanded. We design a double layer diffraction structure for HOE to realize eye-box expansion. The HOE consists of two non-uniform volume holographic gratings and a transparent substrate. Two fabricated holographic gratings are attached to front and back surfaces of the substrate to multiplex image light and achieve eye-box expansion. Simultaneously, the HOE is also manufactured for RGB colors to realize full-color display. The experiment results show that our proposed display system develops 80° round FOV and an enlarged eye-box of 7.5 mm (H) ×5 mm (V) at the same time. The dynamic display ability is also tested in the experiments. The proposed system provides a new solution for the practical application of augmented reality display.
