An optical system for a head-worn computer includes a light source positioned within the head-worn computer and adapted to project polarized illuminating light towards a partially reflective partially transmissive surface such that the illuminating light reflects through a field lens and towards a reflective display. The illuminating light reflects off a surface of the reflective display, forming image light. The image light is then transmitted through the field lens and then through the partially reflective partially transmissive surface to a lower display optical system adapted to present the image light to an eye of a user wearing the head-worn computer.

A single use needle-like probe contains optical fibers to deliver and collect light at the distal tip of the needle-like probe. The single use needle-like probe may connect to a handpiece that may contain sensors to monitor how the probe is being used. Sensors within the handpiece may, e.g., include a force sensor and a position sensor that detect the depth of the probe in tissue. The handpiece may be connected through a cable to a control unit that may include light sources, optical detectors, control electronics and one or more microprocessors to analyze the data collected.

All lights generated in an organic compound layer are not taken out towards a TFT from a cathode as a transparent electrode. For instance, the light is emitted in a lateral direction (direction parallel to the substrate surface) but the light emitted in the lateral direction is not taken out resultantly, which leads to a loss. Therefore, a light emitting device structured so as to increase the amount of light taken out in a certain direction is provided as well as a method of manufacturing this light emitting device. As a result of etching treatment, an upper edge portion of an insulator (19) is curved to have a radius of curvature, a slope is formed along the curved face while partially exposing layers (18c and 18d) of a first electrode, and a layer (18b) of the first electrode is exposed in a region that serves as a light emitting region. Light emitted from an organic compound layer (20) is reflected by the slope of the first electrode (layers 18c and 18d) to increase the total amount of light taken out in the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. 1A.

The invention discloses a projection type planar waveguide helmet-mounted displayer. The projection type planar waveguide helmet-mounted displayer comprises a mini-type display device, a projection optical system, a planar waveguide and a reflection type projection screen, the planar waveguide is internally provided with an optical coupling-in end and an optical coupling-out end, and light rays sent by the mini-type display device are imaged through the projection optical system and are transmitted to enter the optical coupling-in end of the planar waveguide. The optical coupling-in end reflects the received light rays to enable the reflected light rays to be totally reflected between two reflection planes of the planar waveguide many times to be transmitted to the optical coupling-out end of the planar waveguide. The optical coupling-out end reflects the received light rays to the reflection type projection screen.
