DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0045] Embodiments of this application provide a head-up display system and an image display method based on the head-up display system, which can effectively eliminate visual interference to a human eye caused by a ghost image of two virtual images. In the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application, the terms “first”, “second”, “third”, “fourth”, and the like (if existent) are intended to distinguish between similar objects but do not necessarily indicate a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data termed in such a way are interchangeable in proper circumstances so that embodiments described herein can be implemented in other orders than the order illustrated or described herein. Moreover, the terms “include”, “comprise” and any other variants mean to cover the non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a list of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units, but may include other steps or units not expressly listed or inherent to such a process, method, system, product, or device.

[0046] FIG. 1 is a structural diagram of a first head-up display (HUD) system according to an embodiment of this application. The HUD system includes a picture generation unit (PGU) 101, an optical element 102, and a windshield 103. The windshield 103 has two surfaces inside and outside: a first windshield surface 103a and a second windshield surface 103b. The picture generation unit 101 generates a picture, and projects a light beam corresponding to the picture to the optical element 102. The optical element 102 images the picture and directs the light beam to the first windshield surface 103a. Reflection and refraction happen when the light beam is incident on the first windshield surface 103a. A light beam refracted from the first windshield surface 103a is directed to the second windshield surface 103b. A light beam reflected from the first windshield surface 103a can be received by a human eye. It should be understood that after reflection by the first windshield surface 103a, the light beam forms a first virtual image with the picture. The second windshield surface 103b reflects the light beam refracted from the first windshield surface 103a, to the first windshield surface 103a. Further, the light beam reflected from the second windshield surface 103b is refracted on the first windshield surface 103a, and can be received by the human eye. It should be understood that after reflection by the second windshield surface 103b and refraction by the first windshield surface 103a, the light beam forms a second virtual image with the picture.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 1, imaging positions of the first virtual image and the second virtual image are different in space. Therefore, the first virtual image and the second virtual image may form a ghost image due to partial overlapping, thereby causing visual interference to an observer. To eliminate the ghost image seen by the human eye, an included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye needs to be less than a resolution of the human eye. That is, the imaging positions of the two virtual images in space need to be as close as possible, so that the human eye can no longer perceive the ghost image.

[0048] It should be noted that the included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye is affected by a plurality of parameters. Therefore, the plurality of parameters need to be adjusted, so that the included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye is less than the preset angle (for example, the resolution of the human eye). Details are described below.

[0049] Specifically, points at a same position on the first virtual image and the second virtual image are selected, for example, a center point in the first virtual image and a center point in the second virtual image. In addition, a position of the human eye is considered as a point. Further, a direction from the center point of the first virtual image to the human eye is denoted as a first direction, and a direction from the center point of the second virtual image to the human eye is denoted as a second direction. In this case, an included angle between the first direction and the second direction is the included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye.

[0050] The included angle may be specifically calculated by using the following formula:

[00003]$\phi =\mathrm{arc}\sin \left[\frac{2h}{D}\times \frac{\sin \left({\theta }_1\right)}{\sqrt{\frac{n^2}{\cos {\left({\theta }_1\right)}^2}-1}}\right].$

[0051] φ indicates the included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye, h indicates a thickness of the windshield, n indicates a refractive index of the windshield, and D indicates a distance between the first virtual image and the human eye. θ1 indicates a coangle of an incident angle θ0, on the first windshield surface 103a, of the light beam directed by the optical element 102 to the first windshield surface 103a.

[0052] It should be noted that the distance D between the first virtual image and the human eye includes a distance d1 from the first virtual image to the first windshield surface 103a and a distance d2 from the first windshield surface 103a to the human eye. Specifically, the light beam directed by the optical element 102 to the first windshield surface is incident at a target position. In this case, a distance from the target position to the first virtual image is d1, and a distance from the target position to the human eye is d2.

[0053] It should be understood that, because of uncertainty in selecting an eye position, only an approximate value is calculated according to the foregoing formula. However, it can be determined that the included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye is determined by using the foregoing listed parameters. For example, the resolution of the human eye is 0.02° below, and several possible implementations are listed, so that the included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye is less than 0.02°.

[0054] FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a parameter change in the first HUD system. As shown in FIG. 2, a vertical coordinate indicates the included angle φ between the two virtual images and the human eye. A horizontal coordinate indicates the distance d1 from the first virtual image to the first windshield surface 103a. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram in which when another parameter is determined, φ changes with d1. θ1=30°, n=1.518, h=5 mm, and d2=750 mm. It can be learned from FIG. 2 that d1 needs to be set to be greater than 10 m to meet that φ is less than 0.02°.

[0055] FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a parameter change in a second HUD system. As shown in FIG. 3, a vertical coordinate indicates the included angle φ between the two virtual images and the human eye. A horizontal coordinate indicates the refractive index n of the windshield. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram in which when another parameter is determined, p changes with n. θ1=30°, d1=10 m, h=5 mm, and d2=750 mm. It can be learned from FIG. 3 that n needs to be set to be greater than 1.44, and a specific value range may be 1.44 to 1.8.

[0056] FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a parameter change in a third HUD system. As shown in FIG. 4, a vertical coordinate indicates the included angle φ between the two virtual images and the human eye. A horizontal coordinate indicates θ1. FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram in which when another parameter is determined, φ changes with θ1. n=1.518, d1=10 m, h=5 mm, and d2=750 mm. Specifically, a value range of θ1 may be 20° to 80°.

[0057] FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of a parameter change in a fourth HUD system. As shown in FIG. 5, a vertical coordinate indicates the included angle φ between the two virtual images and the human eye. A horizontal coordinate indicates the thickness h of the windshield. FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram in which when another parameter is determined, φ changes with h. θ1=30°, d1=10 m, n=1.518, and d2=750 mm. It can be learned from FIG. 5 that h needs to be set to be less than 6 mm.

[0058] It may be understood that in actual application, specific values of the foregoing parameters include but are not limited to examples listed in FIG. 2 to FIG. 5. In addition, the resolution of the human eye includes but is not limited to 0.02° listed above. All cases in which a combination of the foregoing parameters can enable the included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye to be less than the preset angle fall within the scope of this application, except a case in which the foregoing parameters are preset. In some possible implementations, some of the parameters may be dynamically adjusted. The following provides several specific implementations.

[0059] First, adjust the foregoing parameter d1.

[0060] It may be understood that the foregoing parameter d1 is determined by a focal length of the optical element 102 and a distance between the picture generation unit 101 and the optical element 102. For example, if the distance between the picture generation unit 101 and the optical element 102 is less than the focal length of the optical element 102, a magnified virtual image may be obtained, and a distance between the virtual image and the human eye is relatively long. Therefore, the foregoing parameter d1 can be changed by adjusting the distance between the picture generation unit 101 and the optical element 102 and/or the focal length of the optical element 102.

[0061] FIG. 6 is a structural diagram of the second HUD system according to an embodiment of this application. Compared with the HUD system shown in FIG. 1, the HUD system shown in FIG. 6 further includes a first driving apparatus 104 and/or a second driving apparatus 105. Specifically, the first driving apparatus 104 is configured to adjust a position of the picture generation unit 101. The second driving apparatus 105 is configured to adjust a position of the optical element 102. The distance between the picture generation unit 101 and the optical element 102 can be changed by using the first driving apparatus 104 and/or the second driving apparatus 105, to adjust the foregoing parameter d1.

[0062] Optionally, for some optical elements 102 of specific structures, focal lengths of the optical elements 102 may alternatively be dynamically adjusted. For example, the optical element 102 is a liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS). A focal length of the LCOS may be changed by loading different modulation information on the LCOS, to adjust the foregoing parameter d1.

[0063] Second, adjust the foregoing parameter θ1.

[0064] Based on the HUD system shown in FIG. 6, the first driving apparatus 104 may drive the picture generation unit 101 to rotate, to change an angle of a light beam incident on the optical element 102, thereby implementing adjustment of the foregoing parameter θ1. Similarly, the second driving apparatus 105 may drive the optical element 102 to rotate, to change an angle of a light beam incident on the first windshield surface 103a, thereby implementing adjustment of the foregoing parameter θ1.

[0065] Third, adjust the foregoing parameter n.

[0066] Specifically, a temperature of the windshield 103 may be changed by using a temperature adjustment apparatus, to change the refractive index n of the windshield. Alternatively, a voltage loaded on the windshield 103 is changed by using a power supply to change the refractive index n of the windshield.

[0067] It should be noted that the optical element 102 may be a reflector, such as a freeform mirror, an aspherical mirror, a reflective LCOS, or a diffractive optical element (DOE). A specific optical path is shown in FIG. 1. Alternatively, the optical element 102 may be a lens, a transmissive liquid crystal display (LCD), or the like. A specific optical path is shown in FIG. 7. FIG. 7 is a structural diagram of the third HUD system according to an embodiment of this application.

[0068] Optionally, in the HUD system of this application, a plurality of optical elements 102 may further be disposed to form an imaging system, and a light beam from the picture generation unit 101 is directed to the first windshield surface 103a. A specific quantity of optical elements 102 is not limited in this application. For example, FIG. 8 is a structural diagram of the fourth HUD system according to an embodiment of this application. The optical element 102 includes a first reflection element 102a and a second reflection element 102b. The light beam transmitted by the picture generation unit 101 is successively reflected by the first reflection element 102a and the second reflection element 102b and then is directed to the first windshield surface 103a.

[0069] In some possible implementations, the windshield 103 is a sandwich structure, that is, the first windshield surface 103a and the second windshield surface 103b are bonded together by using a polymer.

[0070] In this embodiment of this application, the picture generated by the PGU forms two virtual images in front of the windshield. The included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye is related to a plurality of parameters (for example, the thickness of the windshield, the refractive index of the windshield, the coangle of the incident angle, on the first windshield surface, of the light beam directed by the optical element to the first windshield surface, and the distance between the first virtual image and the human eye). The included angle between the two virtual images and the human eye may be less than the preset angle (for example, the resolution of the human eye) by adjusting the foregoing listed parameters. Then, the human eye cannot distinguish between the two virtual images, so that visual interference to the human eye caused by a ghost image of the two virtual images can be effectively eliminated.

[0071] FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram of an image display method based on an HUD system according to an embodiment. The HUD system includes a windshield, a PGU, and an optical element, and the windshield includes a first windshield surface and a second windshield surface. The image display method includes:

[0072] 901: The PGU generates a picture and projects a light beam corresponding to the picture to the optical element.

[0073] 902: The optical element images the picture and directs the light beam to a target position on the first windshield surface.

[0074] 903: The first windshield surface refracts the light beam to the second windshield surface, and reflects the light beam to a human eye for receiving.

[0075] Specifically, after reflection by the first windshield surface, the light beam forms a first virtual image with the picture.

[0076] 904: The second windshield surface reflects a light beam refracted from the first windshield surface to the first windshield surface.

[0077] 905: The first windshield surface refracts a light beam reflected from the second windshield surface to the human eye for receiving.

[0078] Specifically, after reflection by the second windshield surface and refraction by the first windshield surface, the light beam forms a second virtual image with the picture.

[0079] 906: Adjust at least one of a thickness of the windshield, a refractive index of the windshield, a coangle of an incident angle, on the first windshield surface, of the light beam directed by the optical element to the first windshield surface, and a distance between the first virtual image and the human eye, so that an included angle between a first direction and a second direction is less than a preset angle.

[0080] Specifically, the first direction is a direction from the first virtual image to the human eye, and the second direction is a direction from the second virtual image to the human eye.

[0081] Optionally, in some possible implementations, the HUD system further includes a first driving apparatus and/or a second driving apparatus. The method further includes the following steps:

[0082] The first driving apparatus adjusts a position of the PGU, so that the PGU is close to or away from the optical element; and

[0083] the second driving apparatus adjusts a position of the optical element, so that the optical element is close to or away from the PGU.

[0084] Optionally, in some possible implementations, the method further includes the following steps:

[0085] The first driving apparatus drives the PGU to rotate, to adjust a size of the coangle; and

[0086] the second driving apparatus drives the optical element to rotate, to adjust the size of the coangle.

[0087] Optionally, in some possible implementations, the distance between the first virtual image and the human eye is equal to a sum of a first distance and a second distance. The first distance is a distance between the first virtual image and the target position on the first windshield surface, and the second distance is a distance between the target position on the first windshield surface and the human eye. The method further includes:

[0088] changing the first distance by adjusting a focal length of the optical element and a distance between the PGU and the optical element.

[0089] It should be noted that the HUD system in this embodiment may be specifically the HUD system in the embodiments shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 6, FIG. 7, and FIG. 8. Details are not described herein again.

[0090] It should be noted that the foregoing embodiments are merely used to describe the technical solutions of this application, but do not impose a limitation thereon. Although this application is described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, persons of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they may still make modifications to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent replacements to some technical features thereof, without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of embodiments of this application.
