HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY APPARATUS AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18451428 titled 'HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY APPARATUS AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF
The head-mounted display apparatus described in the patent application includes a camera, sensor, and processor to gather information about the user's head pose and gaze direction.
- The processor uses data from the sensor and key points from the camera to recognize head rotation, estimate gaze lines, and determine the distance to a target point.
- The technology identifies when the vestibulo-ocular reflex is activated based on the user's gaze lines.
Potential Applications:
- Virtual reality gaming
- Augmented reality applications
- Medical training simulations
Problems Solved:
- Enhances user experience in virtual environments
- Improves accuracy of gaze tracking
Benefits:
- Immersive virtual experiences
- Precise gaze tracking for interactive applications
Commercial Applications:
- Virtual reality gaming industry
- Medical simulation training companies
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the head-mounted display apparatus improve user interaction in virtual environments? 2. What are the potential medical applications of this technology?
Frequently Updated Research: Ongoing studies on improving accuracy and efficiency of gaze tracking technology in virtual reality environments.
Original Abstract Submitted
A head-mounted display apparatus is provided. The head-mounted display apparatus includes at least one camera, at least one sensor, and at least one processor operatively connected to the at least one camera and the at least one sensor. The at least one processor may be configured to acquire information about head pose and head-based gaze direction of a user, based on data input from the at least one sensor and multiple key points input from the at least one camera according to recognizing rotation of a user's head, estimate gaze lines of the user, based on the acquired information about head pose and head-based gaze direction, and estimate a distance to a target point, based on the gaze lines of the user, according to identifying that vestibulo-ocular reflex is activated based on the gaze lines of the user.
