Abstract

Perspective-correct occlusion-capable augmented reality displays are generalized using an optical cloak constraint for ray transfer analysis or simulations; any ray entering the optical system exits at the height and angle as if it passed through empty space. We analyze several systems with two-lens, three-lens, and four-lens looped groups in inline, folded, and looped configurations. We design and demonstrate a four-lens folded optical cloak and a three-lens inverted cloak with an erecting prism.
