Background
In many situations, it is desirable to view objects through a light-transmitting screen while also receiving information conveyed by light imaging.

In an application scenario of an AR gaming device. When a user plays a game using an AR game device, the user's line of sight may fall on objects of different distances as the game scenario advances. The AR game device provides a game AR screen at a corresponding position when the user desires to observe an object at a certain distance.
In addition, the consistency of the running safety of vehicles is an important point of attention. While driving a vehicle, the driver mainly looks outside the vehicle to observe the driving environment outside the vehicle, but the driver still needs to pay attention to some information displayed in the vehicle, such as the driving speed displayed on the dashboard, the fuel amount in the fuel tank, and the like. When the vision of the driver moves between the far and near, the potential safety hazard of running exists.
The Head Up Display (HUD) system includes a transparent screen so that a driver can observe a projected image displayed on the screen when observing an environment outside the vehicle through the screen. However, the environment outside the vehicle is relatively wide, and when the observation position of the eyes of the driver is different from the position of the projected image displayed on the screen, the driver cannot observe the clear projected image while observing the environment.

The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings in conjunction with embodiments.
Referring to fig. 1, a zoom display system provided in an embodiment of the present application may include: an image generation module 100, an adjustable steering mirror 200 and a multiplexed volume hologram 500.
The image generation module 100 may generate an image light L1 carrying information and emit the image light L1 toward the adjustable steering mirror 200. In particular, the image generation module 100 may include a light source and a display device. The light source is configured to emit light of sufficient brightness and impinge upon the display device, which is configured to form image information, such as image information including graphics or colors.
The adjustable steering mirror 200 may include an adjustable plane mirror, an adjustable free-form mirror, or a Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) scanning mirror for deflecting the image light L1 to form the deflected light L2, and the adjustable steering mirror 200 may deflect the image light L1 in different directions. Illustratively, the adjustable steering mirror 200 includes an adjustable plane mirror. An acute angle is formed between the reflecting surface of the adjustable plane mirror and the image light L1. The value of the acute angle is varied by rotating the adjustable plane mirror, for example, a first preset state and a second preset state, respectively. The deflected light L2 corresponding to the first preset state and the deflected light L2 corresponding to the second preset state have different propagation directions in space.
The multiplexed volume hologram film 500 may receive the deflected light L2 of different directions and form a corresponding diffracted light based on the deflected light L2. When the deflected light rays L2 of different propagation directions are incident on the multiplexed volume hologram film 500, it generally means having different incident angles. The multiplexed volume hologram film 500 may have different diffraction characteristics for different incident angles, the formed optical paths have different focal points, and the respective focal points of the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 have mutually different focal lengths.
The image generated by the image generation module 100 is located between the image generation module 100 and the multiplexed volume hologram 500, and the diffracted light forms a virtual image located opposite thereto. The distance between the virtual image formed by the diffracted light propagating along the different optical paths and the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 is different.
The zoom display system provided by the application can be used for an automobile, and the multiplexing volume hologram 500 can be firstly installed during installation, for example, the multiplexing volume hologram 500 and a windshield are manufactured into a whole and fixed in the automobile. The adjustable steering mirror 200 is then adjusted so that the driver can see the virtual image formed by the diffracted light on the side outside the vehicle while looking outside the vehicle through the multiplexed volume hologram 500.
When the driver observes the environment closer to the vehicle body, for example, when driving in a region with a narrow environment, the adjustable steering mirror 200 can be adjusted to a first preset state to adjust the angle at which the deflected light L2 is incident on the multiplexed volume hologram film 500, so that the virtual image formed by the diffracted light formed by the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 is closer to the vehicle body. The driver can observe the information provided by the external environment and the zoom display system at the same time, so that the observation distance of the driver can be kept in a relatively stable section. When the driver observes an environment far from the vehicle body, for example, when driving a car to travel faster, the adjustable steering mirror 200 can be adjusted to a second preset state to adjust the angle of the deflected light L2 incident on the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 to another value, so that a virtual image formed by the diffracted light formed by the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 is far from the vehicle body. When the driver observes a far external environment, the driver can observe the external environment and information provided by the zoom display system at the same time by keeping the observation distance in a relatively constant interval.
The zoom display system provided by the embodiment of the application is simple in structure, can provide virtual images with different space positions, and is suitable for matching different observation positions of a user.
The multiplexed volume hologram film 500 may be disposed at different substrates, thereby enabling the zoom display system of the present application to be used for different scenes.
In an exemplary embodiment, the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 may have more focal lengths corresponding to more deflected light rays L2. For example, in addition to having three focal lengths corresponding to three different deflected light rays L2 and the three focal lengths being different from each other as shown in fig. 1, the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 may have five focal lengths corresponding to five different deflected light rays L2, at least three of which are different from each other.
In an exemplary embodiment, the propagation direction of the deflected light ray L2 formed by the adjustable steering mirror 200 is switched by switching a preset state thereof. Illustratively, the adjustable steering mirror 200 may have a reflective surface 201, and the body of the adjustable steering mirror 200 is fixed relative to the image generation module 100, and switching the preset state of the adjustable steering mirror 200 may cause the attitude of the reflective surface 201 in space to change and be fixed in the preset state. The relative position between the reflecting surface 201 and the image light L1 emitted by the image generating module 100 changes, so that the propagation direction of the deflected light L2 formed at the reflecting surface 201 based on the image light L1 in space changes.
In an exemplary embodiment, the adjustable steering mirror 200 includes a preset plurality of mirror surfaces. The adjustable steering mirror 200 can be adjusted to have different mirrors in the propagation path of the image light L1 to deflect the image light L1. Specifically, the adjustable steering mirror 200 may be adjusted by translation, quick release, rotation, etc., and different mirrors may form the deflected light rays L2 having different propagation directions. The variable steering mirror 200 of different structures may have a preset state in the respective structures and may maintain the preset state.
In an exemplary embodiment, the adjustable steering mirror 200 is adjustable by a movement mechanism that can be manually adjusted.
In an exemplary embodiment, the zoom display system further comprises: a control module 400 for controlling the adjustable steering mirror 200 to switch the preset state. The control module 400 switches the adjustable steering mirror 200 to each preset state based on the control signal. The control signal may be, for example, a button that the user presses to switch the adjustable steering mirror 200 to a desired preset state based on the need.
In an exemplary embodiment, the zoom display system further comprises: the viewpoint tracking module 300 is communicatively coupled to the control module 400. The viewpoint tracking module 300 may be used to obtain a viewpoint signal. Illustratively, the viewpoint tracking module 300 may emit infrared rays toward eyes of a user and receive the reflected infrared rays, and the viewpoint tracking module 300 may obtain a viewpoint signal from the reflected infrared rays. Specifically, the eyes of the user may have different observation positions, so that the infrared rays reflected by the eyes carry different viewpoint signals, and the viewpoint tracking module 300 may determine the observation position of the user based on the viewpoint signals, and determine whether to send a control signal to the control module 400 or what kind of control signal to send to the control module 400. The viewpoint tracking module 300 may send a corresponding control signal to the control module 400 based on the viewpoint signal, and the control module 400 controls the adjustable steering mirror 200 to switch to a corresponding preset state based on the control signal.
Illustratively, the normal to the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 is placed in a substantially horizontal direction. The user views through the multiplexed volume hologram film 500, and the user's viewing position is at a distance from the multiplexed volume hologram film 500. When the zoom display system is in operation, the image generation module 100 emits image light L1 with image information; the viewpoint tracking system 300 detects a viewpoint signal and judges an observation position of a user based on the viewpoint signal, and then issues a first control signal; the control module 400 controls the adjustable steering mirror 200 to a first preset state based on the first control signal. The variable steering mirror 200 deflects the image light L1 to form a deflected light L2, and the multiplexed volume hologram lens 500 forms a diffracted light L3 based on the deflected light L2, and the user receives the diffracted light L3 to observe a virtual image I1. The virtual image I1 is located at a relatively long distance from the multiplexed volume hologram 500, and a user can observe both the actual scene and the virtual image I1 without having to adjust the line of sight in a large scale.
When the user's viewing position is adjusted to be closer to the multiplexed volume hologram film 500, the viewpoint tracking system 300 detects a viewpoint signal and judges the user's viewing position based on the viewpoint signal, and then issues a third control signal; the control module 400 controls the adjustable steering mirror 200 to a third preset state based on the third control signal. The image light L1 is deflected by the adjustable steering mirror 200 to form a deflected light L2, the deflected light L2 generated by the adjustable steering mirror 200 in the third preset state has a different propagation direction from the deflected light L2 formed in the first preset state, and the two deflected light L2 have different incident angles with respect to the multiplexed volume hologram film 500. The multiplexed volume hologram lens 500 forms a diffracted light L3 based on the deflected light L2, and a user receives the diffracted light L3 to observe a virtual image I3. The virtual image I3 is located at a relatively short distance from the multiplexed volume hologram 500 and is located within the user's line of sight, and the user can observe both the actual scene and the virtual image I3 without having to adjust the line of sight in a large scale. The user's line of sight can simultaneously observe the actual scenery and the virtual image (i.e., the image information transmitted from the image generation module 100) both at a far distance and at a near distance, and can easily and simultaneously and clearly view the images when the viewing position is switched.
In an exemplary embodiment, the viewpoint tracking module 300 may track the left and right eyes of the user, respectively.
In an exemplary embodiment, the light source comprises a laser light source or a light emitting diode (Light Emitting Diode, LED) light source. The laser light source or the LED light source may be selected based on the diffraction characteristics of the multiplexed volume hologram film 500. Illustratively, the light emitted by the light source satisfies the Bragg condition with respect to the multiplexed volume holographic film 500.
In an exemplary embodiment, the display device includes a liquid crystal display (Liquid Crystal Display, LCD), a liquid crystal on silicon display (Liquid Crystal on Silicon, LCOS), a digital light processor (Digital Light Processing, DLP), or the like, and is used to add image information, such as information of a vehicle state, a road environment condition, or the like, to light emitted from the light source.
In the exemplary embodiment, among the respective focal lengths of the multiplexed volume hologram film 500, the focal length corresponding to the smaller incident angle of the deflected light ray L2 has a larger value. The sequentially arranged focal lengths facilitate continuous adjustment of the position of the virtual image in use.
In an exemplary embodiment, the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 is a reflective multiplexed volume hologram film 500. When the adjustable steering mirror 200 is on the observation side of the multiplexed volume hologram film 500, the reflected multiplexed volume hologram film 500 forms diffracted light L3 based on the reflected light obtained by the deflected light L2, and the observer can observe a virtual image on the same side of the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 as the adjustable steering mirror 200.
In an exemplary embodiment, the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 is a transmissive multiplexed volume hologram film 500. When the variable steering mirror 200 is on the observed side of the multiplexed volume hologram film 500, the transmitted multiplexed volume hologram film 500 forms diffracted light L3 based on the transmitted light obtained by deflecting the light L2, and the observer and the variable steering mirror 200 are on both sides of the multiplexed volume hologram film 500, and the observer can observe a virtual image on the observed side. The reflection type multiplexing volume hologram film 500 or the transmission type multiplexing volume hologram film 500 has different optical paths and can be adapted to different installation spaces.
In an exemplary embodiment, the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 may include an amplitude type or a phase type. The phase-type multiplexed volume hologram 500 may have a high image brightness, so that a user can still see an image in a bright use environment. In theory, as the number of multiplexing times increases, the diffraction efficiency of the phase-type multiplexed volume hologram film 500 decreases, and for example, when multiplexing is performed five times, the theoretical maximum efficiency is 20%. The efficiency of conventional display systems is typically less than 18% and the efficiency of the zoom display system provided by the present application is still relatively high. Illustratively, the brightness of the image generation module 100 may be increased. A brighter and sharper image may be obtained by increasing the brightness of the image generation module 100.
In an exemplary embodiment, the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 may include at least one of a red light layer, a blue light layer, and a green light layer. An image of at least one color may be generated or a gorgeous color image may be generated.
The zoom display system provided by the application realizes multiple changes of projection distance by combining the multiplexing volume holographic film 500 and the adjustable steering mirror 200, and has simple structure and low cost. The multiplexed volume holographic film 500 is thinner than the common lens, has small volume and can be flexibly controlled. In addition, the projected image has higher brightness and is suitable for viewing.
Referring to fig. 2 to 4, based on the zoom display system of the present application, the present application also provides a method of manufacturing a multiplexed volume hologram, comprising the steps of: obtaining a plurality of preset incidence angles; respectively irradiating the raw material films with reference light along a preset incident angle, and irradiating the same position of the raw material films with object light to cause the object light to interfere with the reference light; the raw material film records each interference pattern, and forms a focus corresponding to each incident angle of the reference light one by one. Wherein the object light and the reference light are generated by the same light source.
In an exemplary embodiment, when the incident angle of the reference light is changed, the position of the raw material film or the lens between the light sources to the raw material film is changed accordingly. Multiplexing a plurality of volume holographic film layers into a whole. At least two of the focal lengths of the volume holographic film layers are different in value.
In an exemplary embodiment, the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 may be prepared on a substrate. The substrate may be an automobile windshield, or a polyester (Polyethylene terephthalate, PET) film, or the like.
Referring to fig. 2 and 3, in an exemplary embodiment, the present application provides a method 1000 of manufacturing a zoom display system, which may include: s1010, obtaining a preset projection distance L. The projection distance L is a distance from the virtual image I to the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 in the direction of the user's line of sight. Generally, the projection distance L may have a maximum value and a minimum value according to the scene of use.
S1020, the object distance L 'of the real image O may be set according to the installation environment, and several virtual images I and the distance of each virtual image I from the multiplexed volume hologram 500 may be set, and the focal length of the focal point corresponding to each virtual image I may be obtained based on the object distance L' and the projection distance L of each virtual image I. Furthermore, the angle of incidence required for each focal point is obtained.
S1030, the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 may be prepared with reference to the aforementioned method of preparing a multiplexed volume hologram film.
S1040 may be further included, in which the image generation module 100, the adjustable steering mirror 200, and the multiplexed volume hologram 500 are built into a zoom display system. The image light L1 generated by the image generating module 100 is deflected by the adjustable steering mirror 200 to form a deflected light L2, where the deflected light L2 forms a real image O. The positions of the image generation module 100, the adjustable steering mirror 200, and the multiplexed volume hologram 500 are adjusted by adjusting the object distance L' of the real image O with respect to the multiplexed volume hologram 500.
In the exemplary embodiment, when the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 is prepared, the wavelength of the reference light is the same as the wavelength of the deflected light ray L2 generated by the tunable steering mirror 200 to be used.
Referring to fig. 3 and 4, illustratively, when the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 is prepared, the projection distance L is set to have a farthest distance and a nearest distance, that is, the projection of the zoom display system has a largest image distance and a smallest image distance, and corresponds to the farthest distance value a and corresponds to the nearest distance value b. And sets the object distance L' based on the environment to be installed.
The relationship may be based on:
and calculating focal lengths corresponding to the farthest distance and the nearest distance respectively. For example, when the projection distance L is a, the first focal point F1 should have a focal length F1, and when the projection distance L is b, the third focal point F3 should have a focal length F3. Referring to fig. 4, the surface of the raw material film is XoZ, and the normal line of the surface is the Y axis. It is understood that the focal length F1 of the first focal point F1 refers to the distance from the plane parallel to the plane XoZ to the plane XoZ where the first focal point F1 is located.
Referring to the foregoing relation, when it is desired that the zoom display system has three focuses, the multiplexed volume hologram 500 may be made to have a second focus F2 between the first focus F1 and the third focus F3, the focal length F2 of the second focus F2 satisfying F1 < F2 < F3. Illustratively, when it is desired that the zoom display system can zoom 4 times, the multiplexed volume hologram 500 may also be made to have a fourth focal point, and the focal length f4 of the fourth focal point may satisfy f1 < f2 < f4 < f3.
When the multiplexed volume hologram film 500 is manufactured, reference rays for each incident angle are made to form one focus correspondingly.
Illustratively, the first reference light L201 having a large incident angle interferes with the first object light L101 having a large opening angle at the raw material film, forming an interference pattern having a first focus F1; the second reference light L202 having another incident angle interferes with the object light L102 having another opening angle at the raw material film, forming an interference pattern having a second focus F2; the third reference light L203 having a smaller incident angle interferes with the third object light L103 having a larger aperture angle at the raw material film, forming an interference pattern having a third focal point F3.
A multiplexed volume hologram 500 having three focuses can be manufactured, and referring to fig. 1, when the multiplexed volume hologram 500 is used, different diffracted light rays are formed after being irradiated by deflected light rays L2 having different incident angles, and a virtual image I1, a virtual image I2, and a virtual image I3 can be formed, respectively.
For example, the focal lengths corresponding to different incident angles may be set as required, and when the incident angles are sequentially changed, the corresponding focal lengths may not be sequentially changed in size, for example, the focal lengths corresponding to the incident angles of a moderate angle are the largest.
Referring to fig. 1, 5 and 6, the embodiment of the present application further provides a zoom display method 2000, which includes the following steps:
s2010, an image light L1 carrying information is generated. In particular by the image generation module 100.
S2020, the image light L1 is deflected by the adjustable steering mirror 200 to form a deflected light L2.
