SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ASSEMBLING A HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18365731 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ASSEMBLING A HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method of assembling a head-mounted display (HMD) by coupling digital projector assemblies to an HMD frame and optically aligning them by warping the frame.

  • Coupling a first digital projector assembly to an HMD frame
  • Coupling a second digital projector assembly to the HMD frame
  • Warping the HMD frame to align the projectors optically
  • Fixing the warped HMD frame to ensure alignment within a predetermined threshold

Potential Applications

This technology could be used in virtual reality (VR) headsets, augmented reality (AR) glasses, and other immersive display devices.

Problems Solved

This method solves the problem of aligning multiple digital projector assemblies in an HMD to create a seamless and high-quality visual experience for the user.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved image quality, enhanced user experience, and increased immersion in virtual environments.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications include gaming, training simulations, medical imaging, and industrial design.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art may include methods of aligning projectors in traditional display systems or other HMD assembly techniques.

Original Abstract Submitted

Methods of assembling a head-mounted display (HMD) may include coupling a first digital projector assembly to an HMD frame, coupling a second digital projector assembly to the HMD frame, and then warping the HMD frame to optically align the first digital projector assembly with the second digital projector assembly. The warped HMD frame may be fixed such that the first digital projector assembly and the second digital projector assembly are optically aligned to within a predetermined threshold. Various other methods and systems are also disclosed.
