With the development of display technology, VR display technology has received extensive attention, and has been widely used in various fields such as games, social, educational and medical fields. In the aspect of VR display, most manufacturers choose to adopt a Pancake type folding light path structure in order to make VR equipment lighter and thinner, the thickness of the VR optical structure can be greatly reduced, but because the folding light path structure needs to introduce polarized light, the light has large return transmission loss after multiple times, and the light efficiency is low; and serious stray light is brought, imaging defects such as ghosting and the like are easy to form, and the watching effect of a user is influenced. Therefore, there is a need to propose an optical system with high light efficiency and high imaging quality to meet the diversified market demands.
Based on this, the present invention provides a straight-through optical system, which is applied in VR devices, and the light transmission is as follows: transmitting and amplifying an image in a display screen of the VR equipment to human eyes through the optical system, wherein a virtual image amplified by the display screen is received by the human eyes through the optical system; that is, light is emitted from the display screen, and after being transmitted through the optical system, an enlarged inverted virtual image is observed on the human eye side.
Specifically, the optical system is divided into a first group, a second group, a third group and a fourth group in sequence from the human eye side to the display screen side according to the distribution position of the lenses, wherein the first group has positive focal power, the second group has positive focal power, the third group has positive focal power and the fourth group has negative focal power. Wherein, the first group includes from the human eye side to the display screen side in proper order: a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, and a fourth lens; the second group comprises, in order from the human eye side to the display screen side: a fifth lens and a sixth lens; the third group comprises, in order from the human eye side to the display screen side: a seventh lens, an eighth lens, a ninth lens; the fourth group sequentially comprises from the human eye side to the display screen side: tenth lens, eleventh lens, twelfth lens, thirteenth lens.
