DISPLAY DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18648603 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

The patent application describes a display device with two display units, each including displays R and L, and ocular optical systems R and L.

  • The first driving unit can change the optical positional relationship between the displays and the ocular optical systems.
  • The second driving unit can change the interval between the pair of display units.
  • An interpupillary distance adjustment unit adjusts the interval between the display units based on detection results from the interpupillary distance detector.
  • After interpupillary distance adjustment, a diopter adjustment unit performs diopter adjustment related to the display unit.

Potential Applications: - Virtual reality headsets - Augmented reality glasses - Medical imaging devices - Military display systems

Problems Solved: - Ensuring optimal viewing experience for users with different interpupillary distances - Providing customizable diopter adjustments for individual users

Benefits: - Enhanced user comfort and visual clarity - Improved user experience in various applications - Customizable settings for different users

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Display Device for Enhanced User Experience" This technology can be applied in industries such as virtual reality, augmented reality, medical imaging, and military technology. It offers a competitive edge by providing customizable settings for users, leading to improved user satisfaction and market differentiation.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the display device adjust for different interpupillary distances? - The device uses an interpupillary distance adjustment unit that changes the interval between the display units based on detection results from the interpupillary distance detector. 2. What are the potential commercial applications of this technology? - This technology can be used in virtual reality headsets, augmented reality glasses, medical imaging devices, and military display systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes a pair of display units each including displays R and L and ocular optical systems R and L. A first driving unit can change an optical positional relationship between the displays R and L and the ocular optical systems R and L. A second driving unit can change an interval between the pair of display units. An interpupillary distance adjustment unit adjusts the interval between the display units by the second driving unit in accordance with a detection result obtained by the interpupillary distance detector. After interpupillary distance adjustment is performed, a diopter adjustment unit performs diopter adjustment related to the display unit by the first driving unit.
