Eyewear dynamically adjusts viewing effects to match the wearer, the object or scene being viewed (luminance, color prominence, glare, visual blur/noise), other conditions: sensory parameters (gaze direction, focal length, eye gestures, other eye activity, other senses, wearer inputs), medical conditions, wearer location, environmental parameters, wearer activity, use by the wearer, the wearer's field of view. The eyewear can adjust visual features presented to the wearer, such as changes in refraction, polarization/shading, color, prismatic angles/functions, 3D displays. Eyewear can be tailored to form factor: glasses, contacts, RID, IOL, facemask/helmet, vehicles, windows, screens, scopes, AR/VR devices, nerve sensors, external devices. Eyewear can adjust refraction, polarization/shading, color filtering/injection, false coloring, color change; prismatic angles/functions. Eyewear can respond to wearer activity: police, military, firefighter, emergency responder, search and rescue, vehicle operation, sporting/theme-park events, viewing advertising/storefronts, conversation. Hybrid optimization of eyewear can be personalized to users.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO CORRECT A VEHCILE INDUCED CHANGE OF DIRECTION

A method to correct for a vehicle induced change of direction in an electronic device is described. The method comprises determining a first center pose of the electronic device, and determining when a motion of the electronic device is caused by a vehicle. At least one key point within a scene can be tracked, using a sensor in conjunction with computer vision operating on a processor, to determine a second center pose. It is then determined whether the second center pose is within a tolerance with respect to the first center pose; and the second center pose is adjusted when there is a difference between the second center pose and the first center pose.

Vehicle-related virtual reality and/or augmented reality presentation

In some embodiments, environmental characteristics of a first real-world route in a first real-world environment (in which a vehicle is located) may be determined. A match between the first real-world route in the first real-world environment and a second real-world route in a second real-world environment may be determined based on similarities between the environmental characteristics of the first real-world route and environmental characteristics of the second real-world route. While the vehicle is on the first real-world route, virtual reality content representative of the second real-world route may be obtained for a virtual reality presentation within the vehicle on the first real-world route based on the determined match between the first real-world route and the second real-world route. While the vehicle is on the first real-world route, the virtual reality content representative of the second real-world route may be presented via one or more output devices of the vehicle.
