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.
