Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate a head-worn computer with a see-through display wherein computer content is presented to a user wearing the head-worn computer and through which the user sees a surrounding environment, wherein the see-through display generates image light comprised of narrow bandwidths of red, green and blue light and wherein the see-through display further includes a tristimulus notch mirror positioned to reflect the image light towards the user's eye, and wherein the tristimulus notch mirror reflects less than a full width half max of the red image light.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1 . A head-worn computer, comprising: a see-through display wherein computer content is presented to a user wearing the head-worn computer and through which the user sees a surrounding environment, wherein the see-through display generates image light comprising narrow bandwidths of red, green and blue light; and wherein the see-through display further comprises a tristimulus notch mirror positioned to reflect the image light towards the user's eye. 2 . The head-worn computer of claim 1 , wherein the image light is generated with an emissive display. 3 . The head-worn computer of claim 1 , wherein the image light is generated with a reflective display.
