This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17427736 titled 'HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY APPARATUS, METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a head mounted display apparatus that includes a display, a camera, and a controller.

  • The display is mounted on the user's head and provides visual content.
  • The camera is positioned on the back surface of the display and captures an image of the user's eyes.
  • The controller processes the captured image to detect the user's eyes and measure the distance between them (inter-pupillary distance or IPD).
  • Based on the measured IPD, the controller converts the visual content to match the user's eye distance.
  • The converted visual content is then displayed on the display for the user to see.
