First, the present exemplary embodiment provides an image display method, which may be applied to augmented reality glasses, where in order to facilitate wearing, the augmented reality glasses may include a glasses frame, a nose pad, and other physical structural components required for wearing, and in addition, the augmented reality glasses may be provided with a camera for acquiring an environment image around the augmented reality glasses. As shown in fig. 2, the augmented reality glasses 210 may be worn on the head of the user, and the augmented reality glasses 210 may be provided with a camera 220, for example, as shown in the figure, the camera 220 is provided on the side of the augmented reality glasses 210. The application scenario of the method of the embodiment may be as follows: when the user wears the augmented reality glasses to perform sports such as running, riding or skiing, the image of the surrounding environment can be displayed on the display interface of the augmented reality glasses, so that the user can better know the surrounding environment and the like.

Fig. 3 shows a flowchart of an image display method in the present exemplary embodiment, which may include the following steps S310 to S320:

step S310, acquiring an image about a real scene acquired by a camera;

step S320 of displaying an image in a display area of the augmented reality glasses;

wherein, the orientation of the camera is different from the orientation of the lens of the augmented reality glasses.

In practical applications, when the user is looking ahead, there may be environmental conditions that require viewing the left, right or other directional viewing angles, especially in some sports scenes, such as running, cycling or skiing, where the speed is high. If the rotary head observes the environment in other directions, the obstacles in front are easy to ignore, and danger is caused. Based on this, the present exemplary embodiment can know the environmental information of each direction through the environmental image captured by the camera by providing the camera on the augmented reality glasses. When the user wears the augmented reality glasses, the corresponding real environment image in the real environment where the user is located can be obtained through the camera on the augmented reality glasses, and the real environment image is displayed in the display area of the augmented reality glasses. Particularly when applied, the present exemplary embodiment may determine whether to display an image of a real scene or which region to display an image of a real scene according to a user requirement, for example, if the user does not need to acquire an image of a surrounding environment, the camera may not be operated; if the user needs to acquire the image of the surrounding environment, the camera can be triggered to be started through a specific gesture or specific operation on a physical key of the augmented reality glasses and the like; or if the augmented reality glasses are provided with a plurality of cameras, which camera is started to acquire images of the real scene can be determined according to user requirements.

Typically, a user, after wearing augmented reality glasses, can see through the lenses of the augmented reality glasses an image of an environment in a viewing angle to which the lenses are oriented, e.g., an environment in a viewing angle area in front of the user's eyes. Considering that the camera needs to capture an environment image at a different viewing angle from the viewing angle at which the lens faces, the present exemplary embodiment may set the facing direction of the camera to be a different direction from the facing direction of the lens of the augmented reality glasses, specifically, the facing direction of the camera may be set according to the structure of the augmented reality glasses and the user requirement, for example, when the augmented reality glasses are in a glasses structure, the camera may be set at the outer side of two glasses legs; when augmented reality glasses are helmet structure, can set up the camera around the helmet body of helmet, set up the camera like in left side, right side or rear side optional position. It should be noted that, depending on the application scenario, the augmented reality glasses may be provided with one or more cameras, for example, one camera is respectively provided on the left side, the right side, and the rear side of the virtual reality helmet.

In an exemplary embodiment, according to different requirements, the augmented reality glasses may be provided with multiple types of cameras, for example, when the environmental details are high, a high-pixel camera may be used; for lower environmental details, a low pixel camera may be used. In addition, any one or more functional cameras of a wide-angle camera, a telephoto camera or a macro camera may also be employed.

The exemplary embodiment can comprehensively consider and determine what kind of camera is adopted according to a specific application scene, for example, a wide field of view or rich content is shot in a relatively open environment, and a relatively large viewing range is required, so that a wide-angle camera can be adopted; or when the user moves faster and needs to know the environment at a longer distance in time to obtain a larger imaging image, a long-focus camera can be adopted; or in a scene with a narrow space, when a close-range environment needs to be observed carefully, a macro camera and the like can be adopted. It should be noted that, based on actual application requirements, the above multiple different types of cameras may also be combined, so that the augmented reality glasses can be applied to more application scenarios, which is not specifically limited by the present disclosure.

In an exemplary embodiment, the step S320 may include:

displaying an image in a preset sub-area of a display area;

wherein the preset subarea is smaller than the lens area of the augmented reality glasses.

In practical application, a user can see two parts of images by wearing augmented reality glasses provided with cameras, wherein one part is that the user sees the images of a real environment through lenses of the augmented reality glasses; the second is an image which is acquired and processed by the camera and then is displayed in the display area, that is, the image of the real environment shot in the exemplary embodiment. In general, the display area is provided in the lens area, and therefore, if the captured image of the real environment is displayed in an excessively large display size in the display area, the user may be affected from affecting the real environment viewed through the lens. Based on this, in the present exemplary embodiment, a preset sub-region may be set in the display region, and the captured image of the real environment is displayed in the preset sub-region, where the preset sub-region is smaller than the lens region of the augmented reality glasses. In addition, according to actual needs, transparency processing can be performed on the shot image, so that the image presented in the display area has certain transparency, the shot actual environment image is properly amplified, the image seen by the user through the lens cannot be greatly influenced, and good use experience is provided for the user.

In summary, in the present exemplary embodiment, by acquiring an image about a real scene captured by a camera; displaying an image in a display area of augmented reality glasses; wherein, the orientation of the camera is different from the orientation of the lens of the augmented reality glasses. On one hand, the cameras with the different lens orientations than the augmented reality glasses are arranged on the augmented reality equipment, so that a user can acquire the front environment image and confirm the environment images in other visual angle ranges at the same time without rotating the head or moving the sight line, the problem of potential safety hazards caused by visual angle blind zones is avoided, and the life safety of the user is improved; on the other hand, this exemplary embodiment combines together augmented reality glasses and camera for the user need not only to wear augmented reality glasses with the help of other appurtenance, just can acquire the image of surrounding environment, simple structure, and the operation is succinct, and user experience is better.

In an exemplary embodiment, the augmented reality glasses include a first camera and a second camera, the first camera is disposed on a first side of the augmented reality glasses and faces the first side, and the second camera is disposed on a second side of the augmented reality glasses and faces the second side.

In practical applications, the augmented reality glasses may generally include two glasses bodies (i.e., two lenses), and as shown in fig. 4, the augmented reality glasses include a first glasses body 410 and a second glasses body 420, which correspond to the right eye and the left eye of the user, respectively, and the user can see the environment image presented in a certain viewing angle region (a region 411 corresponding to the first glasses body 410 and a region 421 corresponding to the second glasses body 420) right in front through the first glasses body 410 and the second glasses body 420. In the present exemplary embodiment, the first side mirror body may refer to a side of the first mirror body 410, for example, a first camera is disposed at an outer side 430 of the right side temple of the augmented reality glasses, facing the first side, for acquiring an environment image of the right side area 431; the second side mirror may refer to a side of the second mirror 420, for example, a second camera is disposed at an outer side 440 of the left side temple of the augmented reality glasses, facing the second side, for obtaining an environmental image of the left region 441. It should be noted that the above example is only an illustrative example, and the first mirror may also be a mirror corresponding to the left eye, which is not limited in the present disclosure. In addition, although the orientation of the camera is different from the orientation of the lenses of the augmented reality glasses, there may be a case where the display environment image acquired by the camera coincides with the environment viewed by the user through the glasses, for example, the area 411 overlaps with both the area 421 and the area 431, the area 421 overlaps with both the area 411 and the area 441, and the like. In order to ensure that the image acquired by the camera and the image seen by the human eyes through the lens can completely cover the surrounding environment and have less area overlap, the present exemplary embodiment may further perform accurate calculation and the like on the setting position of the camera according to the range of the viewing angle of the human eyes and the range of the image acquired by the camera, for example, if the binocular horizontal field angle of the human eyes is 120 °, the field angles of the left and right cameras are not less than 60 °, and the calculation formula may be expressed as: and (4) 180-binocular horizontal field angle, and further determining the position and the field angle of the camera based on the field angle.

In an exemplary embodiment, the step S310 may include:

a first image captured by a first camera and a second image captured by a second camera are acquired.

For example, as shown in fig. 4, if the camera disposed at 430 is used as the first camera and the camera disposed at 440 is used as the second camera, the image captured at the region 431 is the first image, and the image captured at the region 441 is the second image.

In an exemplary embodiment, the step S320 may include the following steps:

displaying a first image in a first preset sub-area of a display area, and displaying a second image in a second preset sub-area of the display area;

the first preset subarea and the second preset subarea are smaller than the lens area of the augmented reality glasses.

The first image and the second image acquired by the cameras on the two sides can be respectively displayed in different sub-areas of the display interface of the augmented reality device, that is, the first image is displayed in the first preset sub-area, and the second image is displayed in the second preset sub-area. The positions of the first preset sub-region and the second preset sub-region can be set systematically or set by users according to the positions and directions of the cameras, for example, when the first camera is arranged on the right side of the augmented reality glasses, and the second camera is arranged on the left side of the augmented reality glasses, the acquired first image is a right-side real environment image, the acquired second image is a left-side real environment image, and in the display region, the first sub-region can be set to be located on the right side of the second sub-region, so that the user can judge the direction.
