Systems and Methods for Switching Vision Correction Graphical Outputs on a Display of an Electronic Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18141751 titled 'Systems and Methods for Switching Vision Correction Graphical Outputs on a Display of an Electronic Device

Simplified Explanation

- The patent describes a method for providing a graphical output based on scanning a user's face and generating a depth map. - The depth map is compared to stored biometric identity maps to authenticate the user. - If the user is authenticated, a corrective eyewear scenario is determined. - A display profile associated with the corrective eyewear scenario is selected. - A graphical output is generated based on the selected display profile.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of providing a graphical output may include scanning at least a portion of a user's face using a sensor; generating a depth map using the scan; and determining a similarity score between the depth map and a set of stored biometric identity maps that are associated with a registered user. In response to the similarity score exceeding a threshold, the user may be authenticated as the registered user. The method may further determine a corrective eyewear scenario, select a display profile that is associated with the corrective eyewear scenario, and generate a graphical output in accordance with the selected display profile.
