One skilled in the relevant art will recognize, however, that the embodiments of the disclosure can be practiced without one or more of the specific details, or with other methods, components, materials, devices, steps, and so forth. In other instances, well-known structures, methods, devices, implementations, materials, or operations are not shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring aspects of the disclosure.
First, in the present exemplary embodiment, there is provided a display assembly, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, including: the display device comprises a display unit 110, an adjustable light-transmitting layer 120, a scene detection unit 130 and a control unit 140, wherein the display unit 110 is used for displaying a virtual image; the adjustable transparent layer 120 is disposed on a side of the display unit 110 away from the display light emitting side; scene detection unit 130 the scene detection unit is configured to obtain image data of a real environment; the control unit 140 is respectively connected to the display unit 110, the adjustable transparent layer 120 and the scene detection unit 130, and the control unit 140 is configured to control the light transmittance of the adjustable transparent layer 120 according to the virtual image data and the image data of the real environment.
According to the display assembly provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the scene detection unit 130 detects image data in a real environment, the control unit 140 controls the light transmittance of the adjustable light transmitting layer 120 according to the virtual image data and the image data in the real environment, and the adjustable light transmitting layer 120 realizes the adjustment of the brightness of light passing through the display assembly, so that the problem of poor display effect of the AR device and the MR device due to the fact that the brightness of the virtual scene is not matched with the brightness of the light in the display scene is solved to a certain extent at least, and the display effects of the AR device and the MR device are improved.
The following will describe portions of the display assembly provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure in detail:
the display mode of the display unit 110 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is an optical see-through type, and a user can observe an external real environment through the display unit 110, and simultaneously, a virtual scene is transmitted to eyes of the user through an optical structure of the display unit 110.
The display unit 110 may be an optical waveguide 111, as shown in fig. 3, the display unit 110 may include an optical waveguide 111 and an image light source 112, the optical waveguide 111 and the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 being arranged in parallel; the image light source 112 is connected to the optical waveguide 111, and the image light transmitted from the image light source 112 forms a virtual image through the optical waveguide 111.
The optical waveguide 111 may be a piece of holographic optical waveguide 111, and the holographic optical waveguide 111 makes parallel light of different field angles enter the waveguide through total reflection and makes incident light propagate along the waveguide structure in a first direction. The light of a single field of view enters the glass plate of the optical waveguide 111 through a glass prism, and the incident angle of the light on the glass plate is larger than the maximum total reflection critical angle of the glass plate, so that the light propagates in the optical waveguide 111 in a total reflection manner.
A holographic grating may be incorporated into the waveguide, and the parallel light within the waveguide will be diffracted when it enters the holographic grating. The vector direction angle of the complex amplitude of the light passing through the holographic grating can be controlled such that a portion of the light passing through the holographic grating at a time is diffracted at a fixed angle and exits the waveguide through the holographic grating. The light that is not diffracted continues to propagate in the glass substrate, which can reduce the loss of light energy and can be subject to exit pupil expansion. Or the diffraction efficiency of the holographic grating can be controlled to make the light intensity of the light transmitted through the holographic grating the same each time, for example, only one tenth of the light intensity is emitted each time, so that the diffraction efficiency of the manufactured holographic grating is 10%. This makes the display unit 110 emit light uniformly, and a soft image is obtained after the exit pupil expansion.
When the holographic grating is used for coupling, the diffraction angle of the holographic grating at the coupling position is the same as that of the holographic grating in the waveguide, so that the incident angle when the holographic grating is incident into the waveguide and the emergent angle when the holographic grating is emergent out of the waveguide can be ensured to be the same, and the field angle of the system is the same as that of the collimating mirror. The addition of the holographic grating does not affect the observation of the real scene by the user.
The image light source 112 is connected to the optical waveguide 111, and the image light source 112 emits light to the optical waveguide 111 according to the virtual image to be displayed by the display unit 110, and the light passes through the optical waveguide 111 and then is transmitted to the pupil of the user, thereby displaying the virtual scene. For example, the image light source 112 may be disposed at one end of the light guide 111, and the direction in which light of the image light source 112 exits is perpendicular to the surface of the light guide 111. The light emitted from the image light source 112 perpendicularly irradiates the optical waveguide 111, and is emitted at the pupil of the user through the total reflection of the optical waveguide 111, so as to display the virtual scene.
As shown in fig. 4, the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 includes: the display device comprises a first electrode layer 121, an electrochromic layer 122 and a second electrode layer 123, wherein the first electrode layer 121 is arranged on one side of the display unit 110 far away from the display light-emitting side; the electrochromic layer 122 is disposed on a side of the first electrode layer 121 away from the display unit 110; the second electrode layer 123 is disposed on a side of the electrochromic layer 122 away from the first electrode layer 121. The light transmittance of the electrochromic layer 122 is adjusted by an electric field formed by the first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123.
The electrochromic layer 122 may include: the display unit comprises an electrochromic material layer, an electrolyte layer and an ion storage layer, wherein the electrochromic material layer is arranged on one side of the first electrode, which is far away from the display unit 110; the electrolyte layer is arranged on one side of the electrochromic material layer, which is far away from the first electrode, and is used for conveying charged ions; the ion storage layer is arranged on one side of the electrolyte layer far away from the electrochromic material layer and is used for storing charged ions.
In practical applications, of course, the electrochromic material layer, the electrolyte layer and the ion storage layer may be arranged between the first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123 in this order, the electrochromic material layer is disposed on a side of the second electrode layer 123 close to the display unit 110, the electrolyte layer is disposed on a side of the electrochromic material layer close to the display unit 110, and the ion storage layer is disposed on a side of the electrolyte layer close to the display unit 110.
Ion(s)The charged ions stored in the memory layer pass through the electrolyte layer and enter the electrochromic material layer in an electric field formed by the first electrode and the like and the second electrode layer 123 after being electrified, so that the color of the electrochromic material layer is changed. For example, the material of the electrochromic material layer is tungsten oxide (WO)3) In the ion storage layer, lithium ions are stored, and the lithium ions enter WO through the electrolyte layer 232 under the action of an electric field3Layer of tungsten bronze L iWO3-xResult in W6+Is reduced to low-priced W5+Electrons from W6+To W5+The interband transition of (a) absorbs the photon and causes the color change.
The first electrode layer 121 may be a cathode, on which basis the material of the electrochromic material layer may be a cathodic electrochromic material, the material of the electrochromic material layer comprising one or more of group VIB metal oxides. Such as tungsten oxide, molybdenum oxide, chromium oxide, and the like.
It is understood that the first electrode layer 121 may also be an anode, and the material of the electrochromic material layer includes one or more of a group viii metal oxide and a group Pt metal oxide or hydrate. Such as nickel oxide, iridium oxide, cobalt oxide, rhodium oxide, manganese oxide, and the like.
Of course, in practical application, the electrochromic material layer may also be an organic electrochromic film. The organic electrochromic film has a relatively large variety and can be divided into two main categories of organic micromolecular electrochromic materials and conductive polymer electrochromic materials. Under the action of an electric field, the conductive polymer in the organic electrochromic film is doped, and the doping process of the conductive polymer is a redox reversible process. In the doping process, transition between a molecular conduction band and a valence band is initiated, wherein the transition comprises transition of different energy levels of a polaron energy level, a soliton energy level, a bipolar energy level and an electron, and the spectrum is changed differently. The doping degree is determined by controlling the voltage in a certain range, so that the absorption of a visible light region is different, the color and brightness are changed, and the electrochromic phenomenon is generated.
The material of the electrolyte layer may include one or more of a liquid electrolyte material, a gel state electrolyte material, and a solid state electrolyte material, the electrolyte is a transparent layer, and a transparent gel state electrolyte material may be selected as the electrolyte layer material. Such as polyethylene oxide, polymethyl methacrylate, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinylidene fluoride, and the like. Since the gel-state electrolyte has high ionic conductivity, the response speed of the adjustable light transmitting layer 120 can be improved.
It is understood that, as shown in fig. 5, the light-adjustable layer 120 may also include a first electrode layer 121, a liquid crystal layer 124, and a second electrode layer 123, where the first electrode layer 121 is disposed on a side of the display unit 110 away from the display light-emitting side; the electro-liquid crystal layer 124 is arranged on one side of the first electrode layer 121 far away from the display unit 110; the second electrode layer 123 is disposed on a side of the liquid crystal layer 124 away from the first electrode layer 121.
A spacer may be disposed between the first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123, and the spacer may maintain a predetermined distance between the first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123 and form a liquid crystal cell. The liquid crystal is filled in the liquid crystal cell to form a liquid crystal layer 124. When the display component is used, the electric field formed by the first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123 drives the liquid crystal to deflect, and thus the light transmittance of the display component is adjusted.
The first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123 may be transparent electrodes, for example, ITO thin films. The material of the first electrode layer 121 may include one or more of silver, chromium, black chromium, ruthenium, stainless steel, titanium, nickel, molybdenum, nickel-chromium, inconel, indium, palladium, osmium, cobalt, cadmium, niobium, brass, bronze, tungsten, rhenium, iridium, aluminum alloy, scandium, yttrium, zirconium, vanadium, manganese, iron, zinc, tin, lead, bismuth, antimony, rhodium, tantalum, copper, gold, platinum group metals, and other suitable reflective materials, preferably one or more of copper, gold, platinum, aluminum alloy, chromium, nickel, ruthenium, silver alloy. The material of the second electrode layer 123 may include one or more of silver, chromium, black chromium, ruthenium, stainless steel, titanium, nickel, molybdenum, nickel-chromium, inconel, indium, palladium, osmium, cobalt, cadmium, niobium, brass, bronze, tungsten, rhenium, iridium, aluminum alloy, scandium, yttrium, zirconium, vanadium, manganese, iron, zinc, tin, lead, bismuth, antimony, rhodium, tantalum, copper, gold, platinum group metals, and other suitable reflective materials, preferably one or more of copper, gold, platinum, aluminum alloy, chromium, nickel, ruthenium, silver, and silver alloy, which are not limited in this disclosure.
The first electrode layer 121 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure may be a monolithic structure or a split structure, and the second electrode layer 123 may also be a monolithic structure or a split structure. The first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123 may both be of a monolithic structure, or any one of the first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123 may be of a split structure.
For example, as shown in fig. 6, the first electrode layer 121 may include a plurality of first electrode units 1211, the plurality of first electrode units 1211 are distributed on the surface of the display unit 110, and the plurality of first electrode units 1211 are insulated from each other. The first electrode 1211 may have a rectangular structure, and a plurality of the first electrode 1211 is arranged in an array. Of course, in practical applications, the second electrode layer 123 may also include a plurality of second electrode units, and the plurality of second electrode units are distributed on the surface of the display unit 110 and are insulated from each other. The second electrode unit may have a rectangular structure, and a plurality of second electrode units are arranged in an array.
The first electrode layer 121 or the second electrode layer 123 is arranged to be of a split structure, so that the brightness of the display area corresponding to each electrode unit can be controlled respectively, and the display assembly is favorable for application in different scenes.
As shown in fig. 7, the control unit 140 may include a controller 141 and an adjustment driving circuit 142, the controller 141 being connected to the display unit 110 and the scene detection unit 130, respectively; the adjusting driving circuit 142 is respectively connected to the controller 141 and the first electrode, the controller 141 determines a target light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 according to the virtual image data and the image data of the real environment, outputs a control signal according to the target light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120, and the adjusting driving circuit 142 adjusts the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 according to the control signal.
The controller 141 is configured to obtain the brightness of the virtual image displayed by the display unit 110 and obtain the detection result of the scene detection unit 130. The luminance of the virtual image acquired by the controller 141 may be obtained by acquiring a gray scale of the virtual image displayed by the display unit 110. Or the controller 141 may determine the brightness of the virtual image by acquiring an electric signal in a driving circuit of the display unit 110.
After the brightness of the virtual image and the brightness of the light in the real environment are obtained, the controller 141 determines the target light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 according to the brightness of the virtual image and the brightness of the light in the real environment, determines the electric fields loaded on the first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123 according to the target light transmittance, and then adjusts the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 to be the target light transmittance.
The adjustment drive circuit 142 is connected to the first electrode, the second electrode is connected to a power source of a fixed potential, and the electric field between the first electrode layer 121 and the second electrode layer 123 is adjusted by the adjustment drive circuit 142. When the first electrode layer 121 includes a plurality of first electrode units 1211, each of the first electrode units 1211 is connected to a corresponding adjustment driving circuit 142. The adjusting driving circuit 142 may be disposed on a frame of the display assembly, or the display assembly may include a driving circuit layer, the driving circuit layer may be disposed between the display unit 110 and the first electrode layer 121, and the adjusting driving circuit 142 is disposed on the driving circuit layer.
When the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 is adjusted, the brightness of the external light transmitted through the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 may be detected, and whether the brightness of the light is matched with a preset brightness threshold value is determined; when the light brightness is not matched with the preset brightness threshold, the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 is adjusted. The preset brightness threshold value can be a determined value and is stored in a storage device of the display component; or the preset brightness threshold may be a value related to the brightness of the virtual image, for example, the preset threshold may be a function of the brightness value of the virtual image.
The scene detection unit 130 may include a light detection subunit 131 and an image acquisition subunit 132, and the image acquisition subunit 132 is connected to the control unit 140 for acquiring an image of the real environment. The image capturing subunit 132 may be a camera, which may be disposed on the display unit 110, or a camera may be disposed on the glasses legs, etc. The camera acquires an image of the real environment, and transmits the image of the real environment to the controller 141, and the controller 141 determines the current scene of the real environment according to the image acquired by the camera. For example, the real scene is day or night, and sunny or cloudy. Different real environment scenes correspond to different brightness threshold ranges, for example, the maximum brightness in the daytime cannot be smaller than a specified threshold. When the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer is adjusted, it is necessary to ensure that the light rays penetrating through the adjustable light-transmitting layer are within the corresponding brightness threshold range.
The light detecting subunit 131 includes a light sensor, which collects light signals in the real environment and converts the light signals into electrical signals, and the light sensor transmits the electrical signals to the control unit 140. The light sensor is disposed on the display unit 110, and the adjustable transparent layer 120 covers a light inlet portion of the light sensor, so that light in a real environment enters the light sensor through the adjustable transparent layer 120.
The light sensor may be disposed at an end portion of the display unit, for example, an upper end or a lower end, etc. The adjustable transparent layer covers the display unit 110 and the light sensor, and at this time, the light collected by the light sensor is the light passing through the adjustable transparent layer 120. The light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 is adjusted according to the relationship between the light passing through the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 and a preset threshold.
Or the light sensor is disposed on the adjustable transparent layer 120, and the light inlet portion of the light sensor is used for collecting light in the real environment. At this time, the light sensor extends out of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 to directly collect light in the real environment.
As shown in fig. 8, the light inlet portion of the light sensor is exposed to the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120. For example, the light sensor may be disposed at an end portion of the display unit 110, for example, an upper end or a lower end, etc. The light sensor may have a through hole at a projection portion of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120, so that external light directly enters the light sensor. A transparent material may be filled in the through hole to protect the light sensor. Or the light sensor may be disposed on the upper side or the lower side of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120, that is, the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 is not disposed at the position of the light sensor.
The display assembly provided by the embodiment of the disclosure detects the light intensity in the real environment through the scene detection unit 130, the control unit 140 controls the light transmittance of the adjustable light transmitting layer 120 according to the image data and the virtual image data in the real environment, and the adjustment of the brightness of the light transmitted through the display assembly is realized through the adjustable light transmitting layer 120, so that the problem of poor display effect of the AR device and the MR device due to the fact that the brightness of the virtual scene is not matched with the brightness of the light in the display scene is overcome at least to a certain extent, and the display effects of the AR device and the MR device are improved.
The exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a display control method for the display assembly described above, as shown in fig. 9, the display control method may include the steps of:
in step S910, image data of a real environment and virtual image data are acquired.
Step S930 determines a scene of the real environment from the image data of the real environment.
Step S950, adjusting the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer according to the image data of the real environment, the virtual image data and the preset scene brightness range, wherein the preset scene brightness range is the preset brightness range of the current scene of the real environment.
According to the display control method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the image data of the real environment is detected through light, the light transmittance of the adjustable light transmitting layer 120 is controlled according to the image data and the virtual image data in the real environment, and the brightness of the light transmitting the display assembly is adjusted through the adjustable light transmitting layer 120, so that the problem of poor display effect of the AR device and the MR device due to the fact that the brightness of the virtual scene is not matched with the brightness of the light in the display scene is solved at least to a certain extent, and the display effect of the AR device and the MR device is improved.
In step S910, image data of a real environment and virtual image data may be acquired.
The image data of the real environment can be acquired to acquire the image of the real environment and to acquire the light brightness in the real environment. The real environment image acquisition can be realized through the camera. The light intensity in the real environment can be acquired by the light sensor. The light sensor may directly detect the brightness of the real environment in the displayed scene, or the light sensor may obtain the light of the real environment passing through the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120. In practical applications, the image data of the real environment may be acquired at preset time intervals, for example, at intervals of 1 second, 3 seconds, 5 seconds, or 1 minute.
The brightness of the acquired virtual image may be obtained by acquiring a gray scale of the virtual image displayed by the display unit 110. Or the brightness of the virtual image may be determined by acquiring an electrical signal in a driving circuit of the display unit 110.
In step S930, a scene of the real environment may be determined from the image data of the real environment.
The real environment may include a variety of scenes, such as night, day, cloudy day, sunny day, indoors and outdoors, etc. The brightness ranges corresponding to different environmental scenes are different. In order to avoid that the light transmitted through the adjustable light-transmitting layer does not exceed the preset range of the scene when the adjustable light-transmitting layer is adjusted, the scene of the real environment needs to be determined.
The image of the real environment can be collected through the camera, and the image of the real environment is transmitted to the controller 141, and the controller 141 judges the scene of the current real environment according to the image collected by the camera. For example, the real scene is day, night, sunny day or cloudy day. Different real environment scenes correspond to different brightness threshold ranges, for example, the maximum brightness in the daytime cannot be smaller than a specified threshold. In practical application, a scene preset brightness range corresponding to a scene in a real environment can be stored in a storage device of a display device as a mapping, and when the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer is adjusted, the stored mapping is called to determine the scene preset brightness range.
In step S950, the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer may be adjusted according to the image data of the real environment, the virtual image data, and the preset brightness range of the scene of the real environment.
The adjustment of the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer can be realized by the following steps: determining the difference value between the brightness of the virtual image and the brightness of the light in the real environment; when the absolute value of the difference value between the brightness of the virtual image and the brightness of the light in the real environment is larger than a preset threshold value, determining the brightness of the target real environment so that the difference value between the brightness of the virtual image and the brightness of the target real environment is smaller than or equal to the preset threshold value; when the brightness of the target real environment is within the preset brightness range of the scene, adjusting the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer to enable the brightness of the light of the real environment penetrating through the adjustable light-transmitting layer to be the brightness of the target real environment; when the brightness of the target real environment is outside the preset brightness range of the scene, the light transmittance of the adjustable light transmission layer is adjusted, so that the brightness of the light of the real environment penetrating through the adjustable light transmission layer is a first boundary value of the preset brightness range of the scene, and the first boundary value is a boundary value of the preset brightness range of the scene close to the brightness of the target real environment.
When the absolute value of the difference between the brightness of the virtual image and the brightness of the light in the real environment is greater than a preset threshold, discomfort of the eyes of the user may be caused, and specifically, the determination of the preset threshold may be obtained through experiments or experience. And when the absolute value of the difference value between the brightness of the virtual image and the brightness of the light in the real environment is less than or equal to a preset threshold value, the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer is not adjusted.
When the light transmittance of the adjustable light transmission layer is adjusted, the scene of the real environment needs to be considered, and the distortion of the scene of the real environment is avoided after the adjustable light transmission layer is adjusted. Therefore, when the adjustable light-transmitting layer is adjusted, when the display environment light rays passing through the adjustable light-transmitting layer are within the preset brightness range of the scene, the adjustment is considered to have no problem; when the display environment light passing through the adjustable light transmission layer is located outside the preset scene brightness range, correction is needed, so that the light transmission brightness of the adjusted adjustable light transmission layer is located at the limit of the preset scene brightness range, partial difference between the brightness of the virtual image and the brightness of the display light is solved, and distortion of the real environment scene is avoided.
When the brightness of the light in the real environment is greater than the preset threshold value of the brightness of the virtual image, the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 is reduced; when the brightness of the light in the real environment is smaller than the preset threshold of the brightness of the virtual image, the light transmittance of the adjustable light-transmitting layer 120 is increased.
According to the display control method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the light intensity in the real environment is detected through light, the light transmittance of the adjustable light transmitting layer 120 is controlled according to the brightness of the light in the real environment and the brightness of the virtual image, and the brightness of the light transmitting the display assembly is adjusted through the adjustable light transmitting layer 120, so that the problem that the display effect of the AR device and the MR device is poor due to the fact that the brightness of the virtual scene is not matched with the brightness of the light in the display scene is solved to a certain extent at least, and the display effect of the AR device and the MR device is improved.
