HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY DEVICE AND OPERATING METHOD OF THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18372554 titled 'HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY DEVICE AND OPERATING METHOD OF THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a head-mounted display device that includes an eye tracking sensor, a depth sensor, and a processor. The eye tracking sensor tracks the user's eyes to obtain eye information, while the depth sensor obtains depth information about objects. The processor uses the eye information to determine a gaze point and then uses this information to measure a parameter of the depth sensor.

  • The device includes an eye tracking sensor to track the user's eyes and obtain eye information.
  • It also includes a depth sensor to obtain depth information about one or more objects.
  • The processor uses the eye information to determine a gaze point.
  • The processor then determines a measurement parameter of the depth sensor based on the information about the gaze point.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Virtual reality and augmented reality headsets can use this technology to enhance user experience by accurately tracking eye movements and adjusting the display accordingly.
  • Medical applications, such as assisting in diagnosing eye conditions or monitoring eye movements during surgeries.
  • Gaming and entertainment industries can utilize this technology to create more immersive experiences and improve gameplay mechanics.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Accurate eye tracking allows for more precise interaction with virtual objects and enhances the overall user experience.
  • The depth sensor provides additional information about the user's environment, enabling more realistic and immersive virtual experiences.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved user experience in virtual reality and augmented reality applications.
  • Enhanced accuracy and precision in eye tracking, leading to more natural and intuitive interactions.
  • Increased realism and immersion in virtual environments.
  • Potential medical applications for diagnosing and monitoring eye conditions.


Original Abstract Submitted

A head-mounted display device includes an eye tracking sensor configured to obtain eye information by tracking both eyes of a user, a depth sensor configured to obtain depth information about one or more objects, and a processor configured to obtain information about a gaze point based on the eye information, and determine a measurement parameter of the depth sensor based on the information about the gaze point.
