A method is provided for the user-specific calibration of a display apparatus, wearable on the head of a user, for an augmented presentation, wherein A), in a basic calibration step, the position of the at least one eye is ascertained relative to the display apparatus in all three spatial directions in the state where the display apparatus is worn on the head of the user and said position is saved in the display apparatus as adjustment data in such a way that an image generating module of the display apparatus generates the image taking account of the adjustment data.

Light projector using an acousto-optical control device

An approach for projecting light may be implemented using a acousto-optical depth switch that uses surface acoustic waves produced along a substrate to guide image light to different areas. The surface acoustic waves may be generated on a substrate using a transducer. Surface acoustic waves of different frequencies can guide image light onto different optical elements at different physical positions. The optical elements may be configured to show objects in an image at different distances from a viewer.

Embodiments employ one or more ellipses to determine distance and location in relation to a camera. The captured images of ellipses are analyzed to determine the size of the major axes of the ellipses in the captured image. From the size of the major axis, using mathematics, the distance from the camera can be computed. This distance from the camera combined with the location of the center of the ellipse in the captured image may then be used to locate the ellipse in X-Y-Z space. The ellipses may be placed on articles attached to the body or head of a person, such as a hat or glasses.
