EYE CENTER OF ROTATION DETERMINATION, DEPTH PLANE SELECTION, AND RENDER CAMERA POSITIONING IN DISPLAY SYSTEMS
A display system can include a head-mounted display configured to project light to an eye of a user to display virtual image content at different amounts of divergence and collimation. The display system can include an inward-facing imaging system images the user's eye and processing electronics that are in communication with the inward-facing imaging system and that are configured to obtain an estimate of a center of rotation of the user's eye. The display system may render virtual image content with a render camera positioned at the determined position of the center of rotation of said eye.
DISPLAY SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING REGISTRATION BETWEEN A DISPLAY AND A USER'S EYES
A wearable device may include a head-mounted display (HMD) for rendering a three-dimensional (3D) virtual object which appears to be located in an ambient environment of a user of the display. The relative positions of the HMD and one or more eyes of the user may not be in desired positions to receive, or register, image information outputted by the HMD. For example, the HMD-to-eye alignment vary for different users and may change over time (e.g., as a given user moves around or as the HMD slips or otherwise becomes displaced). The wearable device may determine a relative position or alignment between the HMD and the user's eyes. Based on the relative positions, the wearable device may determine if it is properly fitted to the user, may provide feedback on the quality of the fit to the user, and may take actions to reduce or minimize effects of any misalignment.
Methods for measuring actual distance of human body and customizing spectacle frame
A method for measuring the actual distance of a human body based on a cornea image and a method for customizing a spectacle frame. The measurement method comprises the following steps: step 1, acquiring a front-view photograph with at least one dark part of eyes, or capturing a frame of a front-view image with at least one dark part of eyes from a video; step 2, detecting and positioning the first dark part; step 3, determining a max horizontal radius L.sub.p of the first dark part; step 4, determining a proportionality factor of an actual linear geometric size to a linear size in the photograph or the frame; and step 5, measuring an actual image distance between any two points, and multiplying the actual image distance by the proportionality factor to obtain an actual distance between the two corresponding points on human body.
Systems and methods for creating eyewear with multi-focal lenses
Systems and methods are disclosed for generating an eyewear frame and lens geometry that is customized to a user's anatomy and optimized for optical performance. One method includes receiving a configurable parametric model of a user-specific eyewear product comprising a frame portion and a lens portion, wherein geometric parameters of the configurable parametric model are based geometric features of a user's anatomy; receiving media data of a user, the media data including the user's response to visual cues; detecting the position of the user's eyes from the received media data; determining optical information of the user based on the detected position of the user's eyes; and generating an updated configurable parametric model by modifying the received configurable parametric model based on the determined optical information.
Eyewear Measuring Systems, Methods and Devices
Systems, methods and devices for measuring eyewear characteristics are provided. The eyewear measurement systems and devices comprise a plurality of measurement standard frames, each having lenses marked with visible gridlines specifically configured to the measurement standard frame to allow for the direct measurement of a PD and SH/FH with respect to each eye of the wearer.
OPTOELECTRONIC BINOCULAR INSTRUMENT FOR THE CORRECTION OF PRESBYOPIA AND METHOD FOR THE BINOCULAR CORRECTION OF PRESBYOPIA
Optoelectronic binocular instrument for the automatic correction of presbyopia and method for the binocular correction of the presbyopia. The instrument has two optoelectronic lenses (103, 110; 203, 204) and a capturing subsystem for taking images of the eye. By means of the pupil tracking, which performs the processing of the eye's images, the system determines the distance where the subject is looking at. The pupil tracking works at a very high speed, using a high-performance graphic processor and a highly parallelized algorithm for pupil tracking. The method consists of two phases. In the first one a calibration is accomplished, the subject is asked to look at targets at different distances and the size and position of the pupil is measured. In the second phase the correction is performed by the instrument, the system continuously captures and processes images to calculate the correction to apply and, finally, corrects the presbyopia by applying said correction.
SYSTEM AND METHOD OF PROVIDING CUSTOM-FITTED AND STYLED EYEWEAR BASED ON USER-PROVIDED IMAGES AND PREFERENCES
The invention relates to systems and methods for providing custom-fitted and styled wearable items such as eyewear based on measurements made from a user-provided image that is resized using a predefined reference that includes an image of an actual wearable item. The eyewear may be provided to a user, who wears the eyewear and provides an image of the user wearing the eyewear. The user-provided images may be compared to a predefined reference (e.g., an image of the eyewear) having a known scale and/or dimension. For example, a user-provided image may be overlaid with the predefined reference and resized so that the wearable item worn by the user in the user-provided image matches (the size of) the wearable item in the predefined reference. Because the scale and/or dimensions of the predefined reference are known, one or more measurements associated with the user may be made based on the user-provided image.
METHOD AND SYSTEM TO CREATE CUSTOM, USER-SPECIFIC EYEWEAR
Systems and methods for creating fully custom products from scratch without exclusive use of off-the-shelf or pre-specified components. A system for creating custom products includes an image capture device for capturing image data and/or measurement data of a user. A computer is communicatively coupled with the image capture device and configured to construct an anatomic model of the user based on the captured image data and/or measurement data. The computer provides a configurable product model and enables preview and automatic or user-guided customization of the product model. A display is communicatively coupled with the computer and displays the custom product model superimposed on the anatomic model or image data of the user. The computer is further configured to provide the customized product model to a manufacturer for manufacturing eyewear for the user in accordance with the customized product model. The manufacturing system is configured to interpret the product model and prepare instructions and control equipment for the manufacturing of the customized product.
