WEARABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR PROVIDING VIRTUAL IMAGE
A wearable electronic device is provided. The wearable electronic device includes a first assembly including a frame that is mountable on the head, and a transparent display which is positioned on the frame so as to face the eyes when the frame is mounted on the head and which displays an image in a designated mode, and a second assembly including a holder that is attachable to/detachable from the frame, a lens which is positioned in the holder and which faces the transparent display when the holder is attached to the frame, and a flexible member which surrounds at least a part of the space between the transparent display and the lens and which is positioned between the holder and the frame.
HEAD-UP DISPLAY MODULE, HEAD-UP DISPLAY SYSTEM, AND MOVABLE BODY
A head-up display module is mountable on a movable body. The head-up display module includes a first display panel, a first optical element, a drive, a first input unit, and a controller. The first display panel displays a first image. The first optical element reflects image light from the first image emitted from the first display panel. The drive drives the first optical element to change a direction in which the image light from the first image is reflected. The first input unit receives an input of a speed of the movable body. The controller drives the drive in accordance with the speed and controls a display image to be displayed on the first display panel.
Vehicle with display device
A vehicle (10) for a driver (14) of the vehicle (10) and a display device (16) are provided. The display device (16) includes a projection surface (18) extending in the horizontal and vertical direction and a projector (20) that is configured so as to project a projection (24) onto the projection surface (18). The projection surface (18) is curved in the horizontal direction and surrounds the driver (14) in the horizontal direction by at least one hundred degrees. A method for displaying a projection (24) on a projection surface (18) for a driver (14) of a vehicle (10) is also provided. The method includes: d) determining a viewing direction and/or head orientation (26) of the driver (14) towards the projection surface (18); and f) projecting the projection (24) onto the projection surface (18) in the viewing direction and/or head orientation (26) of the driver (14).
SOFT FOLLOW AND PITCH ANGLE EFFECTS FOR VR/AR INTERFACE
The user interface of an electronic eyewear device tracks a user's head movement to keep the user interface in front of the user's eyes. A position forward vector, a rotation forward vector, and an up vector are defined to enable the system to individually adjust the rates of translation and rotation of the user interface as the user's head moves through space. By disconnecting the translation and rotation of the user interface from the head forward vector, the rates of translation and rotational movement of the user interface are separated from the rate of movement of the user's head to enable a delay in user interface movement relative to head movement for a more realistic VR/AR 3D presentation. The pitch angle is monitored to maintain the user interface in front of the user's eyes in the correct orientation even at difficult pitch angles such as straight up or straight down.
AUGMENTED REALITY DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD
An augmented reality display device including a virtual image display and a controller is provided. The virtual image display is configured to provide a left eye virtual image and a right eye virtual image to a left eye and a right eye of a user, respectively. The controller is electrically connected to the virtual image display, and is configured to command the virtual image display to display a left eye virtual mark and a right eye virtual mark, corresponding to a real mark in space, in the left eye virtual image and the right eye virtual image, respectively, and calculate an interpupillary distance between the left eye and the right eye according to a deviation of the left eye virtual mark with respect to the real mark and a deviation of the right eye virtual mark with respect to the real mark.
Head-up display for vehicle
The present invention relates to a head-up display for a vehicle configured to change display positions of a plurality of virtual images displayed through a windshield of the vehicle or the like to implement augmented reality and a control method thereof, and a head-up display for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include a mirror unit comprising a first mirror for reflecting first and second image lights toward a windshield of the vehicle; a display layer located at the windshield of the vehicle to display a first virtual image corresponding to the first image light in a first region, and display a second virtual image corresponding to the second image light in a second region; and a controller configured to change an inclination of the first mirror to change a display position of the first and the second virtual image.
Variable optical correction using spatially varying polarizers
An optical system is provided that includes a correction portion including one or more spatially varying polarizers. A first spatially varying polarizer of the one or more spatially varying polarizers has a first control input configured to receive a first control signal indicating whether the first spatially varying polarizer is to be active or inactive. When active, the first spatially varying polarizer is operative to provide a first optical correction on light passing through the correction portion. The optical system includes a controller configured to determine whether to implement the first optical correction on the light passing through the correction portion and in response to determining to implement the first optical correction on the light passing through the correction portion, output the first control signal indicating the first spatially varying polarizer is to be active. Additional spatially varying polarizers may be controlled to provide additional or alternative optical corrections.
INTELLIGENT APPLICATION OF RESERVES TO TRANSACTIONS
Intelligent application of reserves to transactions are described. In an example, server(s) associated with a payment processing service receive, from a point-of-sale (POS) device operated by a merchant, transaction data associated with a payment transaction between the merchant and a customer. Based on a predictive model, the server(s) can determine a level of risk associated with the merchant and/or the payment transaction and can determine a portion of the transaction to withhold from a settlement amount of the payment transaction based at least in part on the level of risk. The portion can be deposited into a reserves account associated with the payment processing service to satisfy costs associated with chargeback requests.
IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE AND ADJUSTMENT METHOD
There are provided: a display unit that is allowed to converge light forming a display image in a pupil of an eyeball and project the light on a retina and that has translucency; and a moving unit that is allowed to move the display unit in triaxial directions of an eye relief direction and two axial directions, the eye relief direction being a direction of a distance between the eyeball and the display unit, the two axial directions constituting a plane perpendicular to the eye relief direction. The moving unit includes a biaxial moving mechanism that is allowed to move the display unit in accordance with a position of the pupil of the eyeball in two axial directions, which are not parallel to each other, constituting a plane perpendicular to the eye relief direction. The moving unit includes an eye relief direction moving mechanism that is allowed to move the display unit in the eye relief direction.
CALIBRATING SENSOR ALIGNMENT WITH APPLIED BENDING MOMENT
Examples are disclosed that relate to calibration data related to a determined alignment of sensors on a wearable display device. One example provides a wearable display device comprising a frame, a first sensor and a second sensor, one or more displays, a logic system, and a storage system. The storage system comprises calibration data related to a determined alignment of the sensors with the frame in a bent configuration and instructions executable by the logic system. The instructions are executable to obtain a first sensor data and a second sensor data respectfully from the first and second sensors, determine a distance from the wearable display device to a feature based at least upon the first and second sensor data using the calibration data, obtain a stereo image to display based upon the distance from the wearable display device to the feature, and output the stereo image via the displays.
