Description

Folding light path geometric holographic display system

Technical Field

The utility model belongs to the technical field of 3D shows and specifically relates to a folding light path geometry holographic display system is related to.

Background

The 3D display technology may provide depth information to exhibit more visual information than the conventional 2D display technology, so that the degree of restitution of the display image is higher. The 3D display technology is therefore a very popular technology in current academic research. The 3D display scheme based on the holographic technology can restore the light field distribution of the real physical world in principle, so that all optical characteristics of the 3D scene are completely restored. The traditional holographic display technology is to record the light intensity information and the phase information of a scene by utilizing the fluctuation characteristic of light, thereby realizing the recording of the light intensity, the color and the depth of field of the scene. However, coherent light is needed for shooting and displaying in this way, the light path setting during the shooting and displaying process is very harsh, and slight disturbance of the environment can cause shooting failure, so that the method cannot be really applied in life.

Currently, mainstream 3D display solutions (such as 3D movies in theaters) are all pseudo 3D display images based on parallax image pairs (stereo image pairs), which cannot display real 3D images, and the physical focal depth of the display image is fixed, so that the display of scenes with different focal depths cannot be realized. Although many 3D display technologies have been proposed, none of them can really display a large-scale, stable, high-quality 3D image.

The patent application No. 201910875975.1 discloses a new holographic display scheme, as shown in fig. 1, which includes a holographic projector 1, a projection screen 2, an interactive response unit 3, a processor 4 and a motion actuator 5, wherein the processor 4 sends projection data information to the holographic projector 1 to control the projection picture and the picture depth of the holographic projector 1, and controls the motion actuator 5 to adjust the position of the holographic projector 1 relative to the projection screen 2 according to the received positioning information of human eyes and the user interaction information acquired by the interactive response unit 3, so that the user can normally view a 3D picture. But at the present stage, the display advantages are difficult to be realized due to the lack of 3D film sources available for the display. And the structural limitation of the display system is also large, and a sufficient system layout space cannot be provided for the display system in many application scenes, so that the system is complex and has high cost.

Meanwhile, the optical parameter setting of the display system needs to be carefully designed to ensure the ideal display effect and the reliability of the display system, otherwise, the display system may not achieve the ideal display effect or ensure the reliability due to the inappropriate display parameters.

Generally, 3D film sources in a cinema are in the form of a stereo image pair, and a 3D effect is expressed by binocular parallax, but the actual picture focal depth is fixed at one position, so that visual fatigue is caused. The utility model discloses a system is because projection and the burnt depth of focus are adjustable, so can remove reasonable position to the picture equivalent burnt depth of focus to avoided the problem that 3D burnt depth and actual burnt depth are different, demonstrate more lifelike 3D effect. Compared with a holographic projector serving as the projector 6, the method can effectively reduce the cost, and particularly, the common projection equipment can be a common projector;

or a holographic projector is directly adopted as the projector 6 to project a 3D picture in space; instead of the above-mentioned holographic projector, a projection device capable of displaying a three-dimensional picture (or a two-dimensional group of pictures distributed at different focal depths in space) may also be used, for example, a common projection device may be further optically designed to enable 3D display based on a single projector, and reference may be made to an all-solid-state holographic projector with application number 202010029144.5, where the technical solution of implementing three-dimensional picture display by adding some optical elements to the inside of the projector is not specifically limited herein;

the transmission type geometric holographic screen 7 is a screen which converges the image point on one side of the transmission type geometric holographic screen 7 to the other side thereof to form a conjugate image point, the position of the screen corresponds to the projector 6 and the optical path folding mirror group 10, and a flexible holographic screen is preferably used, so that the screen can be made into a scroll screen or a folding screen, the whole system is more compact and portable, and a hard screen can be used in proper occasions;

when the 2D picture needs to be compatibly displayed, the transmission type geometric holographic screen 7 can be replaced by a common projection screen, such as a common rear projection screen;

the support structure 8 is respectively matched with the projector 6, the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7 and the optical path folding mirror group 10, and provides physical structure support for the three, specifically, the support structure 8 can be made into a support frame with a fixed structure, at the moment, the whole display system of the utility model is fixed, and a user can observe a picture only in a fixed direction;

the optical path folding mirror group 10 is supported by the support structure 8, and at least includes a plane mirror with a reflection function on one surface, and is used for changing the propagation path of the light projected by the projector 6, and is specifically arranged on one side of the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7, or when the number of the optical path folding mirror group 10 is multiple, the optical path folding mirror group is arranged on one side of the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7 or respectively arranged on two sides of the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7, and is specifically determined according to the space form of the applied scene;

the controller 9 is electrically connected with the projector 6, and the projector 6 can adjust the depth of field and the picture content of the projected picture according to the control signal of the controller 9;

in order to increase the flexibility of the display system, the support structure 8 may be a movable or deformable structure, the support structure 8 is electrically connected to the controller 9, and the support structure 8 performs corresponding response actions according to control information of the controller 9, so as to implement relative movement and/or overall movement among the projector 6, the transmissive geometric holographic screen 7 and the optical path folding mirror group 10, so that a visual window of the system always covers eyes of a user, and the user can normally view a picture in different directions, it should be noted that the support structure 8 is a general prior art, and those skilled in the art can design themselves according to the spatial conditions of practical applications, for example: the deformable structure can be easily designed by using a plurality of hinge structures and structures similar to the umbrella shaft, and is not particularly limited;

as shown in fig. 3, as a preferred solution, the holographic display system of the present invention further includes an interactive action capturing unit 31 electrically connected to the controller 9, the interactive action capturing unit 31 is configured to recognize the interactive action of the user and send the user interactive action information to the controller 9, the controller 9 adjusts the content of the display screen according to the received user interactive action information obtained by the interactive action capturing unit 31, so as to realize the interactive action between the user and the display screen, specifically, a camera is used in combination with a machine vision technology to recognize the gesture action of the user to obtain the user interactive information, so as to control the movement of the supporting structure 8 to adjust the spatial position and posture of the projection device and/or the transmissive geometric holographic screen 7, and the controller 9 can also adjust the content of the display screen in real time according to the received user interactive action information obtained by the interactive action capturing unit 31, the method includes the steps that interaction between a user and a picture is achieved, for example, the picture is controlled to translate according to a translation gesture signal, or operations such as amplification, zooming-in, zooming-out and touch of the picture are controlled according to other corresponding interaction;

the setting of the interactive motion capture unit 31 has positive significance for application scenarios like wearable applications where the spatial position of the user relative to the display system is fixed;

in addition, for an application scenario that the spatial position of the user changes in real time relative to the display system, a human eye tracking unit 32 electrically connected to the controller 9 needs to be arranged, the human eye tracking unit 32 is used for tracking the position of human eyes and sending the positioning information of the human eyes to the controller 9, and the controller 9 controls the support structure 8 to make a corresponding action response according to the received human eye positioning information acquired by the human eye tracking unit 32, so as to adjust the relative position and/or the overall spatial position of the projector 6 and the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7, so that the user's eyes are always in the visible space of the system, and thus the user's eyes can always receive the projection information even in a moving state, and can normally watch the picture.

In practical applications, the human eye tracking unit 32 and the interactive motion capture unit 31 may be integrated in the same device, for example, a machine vision camera device is used.

When a common projector is used as the projector 6, the controller 9 sends the picture and the average focal depth information of the picture to the projector, and the projector adjusts the projection focal depth by itself, so that the projector can project the picture to a specific focal depth position for the human eyes to watch.

It should be noted that a common projector generally has an auto-focusing function, and when the projector is started, the projector measures the distance from the screen to the projector according to a built-in distance sensor, and then drives a lens to adjust to a proper position, so that the projection focal depth coincides with the screen; the utility model discloses a also can get rid of its distance sensor from the area in the system, thereby make 9 direct sending focal depth data of controller realize the control to the projection focal depth to the projector, concrete implementation is current ripe hardware communication technology, does not do here and gives unnecessary details.

Take the utility model discloses a 6 projectors as the example and explain:

as shown in fig. 2, the system is configured with an optical path folding lens group 10 located on the same side as the projector 6, after the projection image of the projector 6 is optically transformed by the optical path folding lens group 10 and the transmission type geometric holographic screen 7, an off-screen display image is formed on the other side of the transmission type geometric holographic screen 7, and the display image can be viewed by human eyes through a window as shown in the figure;

as shown in fig. 4, the system is configured with two optical path folding lens groups 10, both of which are located on the same side of the projector 6 with respect to the transmissive geometric holographic screen 7, and after the projection image of the projector 6 is optically converted by the two optical path folding lens groups 10 and the transmissive geometric holographic screen 7, an off-screen display image is formed on the other side of the transmissive geometric holographic screen 7, and human eyes can view the off-screen display image through a window as shown in the figure;

as shown in fig. 5, the system is also provided with two optical path folding lens groups 10, but the two optical path folding lens groups are respectively arranged on two sides of the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7, after the projection picture of the projector 6 is optically converted by the two optical path folding lens groups 10 and the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7 (as shown in fig. 6), a display picture away from the screen is formed on the other side of the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7, and human eyes can view the display picture through a window shown in the figure;

it should be noted that the optical conversion principle of the optical path folding mirror group 10 and the transmission type geometric holographic screen 7 for the projection image of the projector 6 can refer to the optical conversion principle of fig. 5. When the number of the optical path folding lens group 10 is more, no matter what kind of arrangement and combination, it is only necessary to form a display image away from the screen at the optical conjugate position after the projection image of the projector 6 is optically converted, and the protection scope of the present invention is included.

The above is merely an illustration of the present invention, and is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is also applicable to a plurality of projectors 6.

Folding light path geometry holographic display system compare with traditional display system and have a very special place, it can't supply a large amount of users to watch simultaneously like traditional 2D display device, for the convenient expression, introduce the notion of viewpoint here:

if the display system can provide a viewing window for one eye, the system has a point of view. For a binocular display system, two eyes can watch simultaneously, so the number of viewpoints is 2. When the display system is available for n eyes to view simultaneously, the number of viewpoints is n. In actual design, the structure of the system needs to be reasonably set under the condition of considering practicability.

As shown in fig. 6, in case a, corresponding to using a large-caliber projector, the outermost lens of the projector can cover both eyes of the user with respect to the optical conjugate area (also mirror symmetry area, which can be called as viewing window) of the transmissive geometric holographic screen 7, and at this time, although the area between both eyes can be used for viewing images in principle, it is impossible to use the projector under practical conditions, and only two eyes can be used for viewing at the same time, so that the situation is equivalent to two viewpoints;

in the case of b to d, the projection optics of the two projectors form two separate sub-areas with respect to the optically conjugate area of the transmissive geometrical holographic screen 7, corresponding to the use of two small-aperture projectors. When the distance between the two sub-regions is exactly matched with the distance between the human eyes, the two eyes can watch the images simultaneously (b situation), so that two viewpoints exist;

when the interval between two sub-regions is smaller than the interval between human eyes (c case) or larger than the interval between human eyes (d case), only one of the two eyes can view an image and thus only one viewpoint.

As shown in fig. 7, when the number of projectors is larger, the number of viewpoints of the system is increased accordingly, the specific number is determined according to the specific situation of a to d, and the number of viewpoints of the display system is n, which is related to the size and number of lenses of the adopted projectors.

Similarly, the spatial position relationship among users under the use situation needs to be considered when the multi-user system is designed, the spatial distribution condition among all windows is reasonably designed, and the condition that the actual available viewpoint of the system is smaller than the design viewpoint is avoided. An effective design strategy is to design the support structure 8 reasonably to have a structure adjusting function, for example, the distance or the spatial position between two projectors can be adjusted, so that the geometric form of the support structure 8 can be flexibly adjusted according to the interpupillary distance of a user and an application field to adapt to actual requirements when the projector is used.

It should be noted that, when the projection system is switched to the 2D projection mode in a downward compatible manner (for example, a projection focal plane of the projector is adjusted to directly project a 2D picture on the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7, or a common projection receiving screen is used to replace or be placed on the front surface or the rear surface of the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7 to perform receiving display of the 2D projection picture), the image focal plane coincides with the screen, the number of viewpoints is greatly increased, but these viewpoints have great viewing limitations, only the picture on the screen can be viewed, and the off-screen picture output by the display system cannot be viewed, so that the number of viewpoints cannot be counted into the number of real viewpoints, and the actual effective viewpoint should be a viewpoint capable of viewing the pictures in all modes of the system.

The conventional 2D display devices, such as televisions, projectors, computers, etc., have a large number of viewpoints, and can be viewed by many users at the same time, because the light emitted from the light source has high divergence and no directivity, and thus has a high requirement on brightness. But to the utility model discloses a holographic display system, the viewpoint number is all less, the light that its display device (like holographic projector or ordinary projecting apparatus) sent can very the efficient collect the window position and be received by people's eye, consequently if the light intensity causes dizzy too strongly easily, the image is unclear, cause the injury to people's eye even, too high luminous flux often needs the light source (like the inside bulb of projecting apparatus, LED lamp etc.) to move under the high power simultaneously, and the long-term service life of light source operation under the high power mode will reduce by a wide margin, so the luminous flux can not design too high. However, as the number of the viewpoints increases, the total luminous flux of the display system also needs to be increased to ensure that each viewpoint can provide a clear picture.

Folding light path geometry holographic display system's viewpoint number be n, projector 6 outside the mean value of the printing opacity partial diameter of lens be D decimeter (dm), projector 6's average demonstration luminous flux is L lumen (lm), shows that luminous flux visual dot product is n^1.27L, taken together, combined with the actual test effect, shows that the luminous flux viewpoint product satisfies: n is^1.27When L is not more than 24000, a relatively good display effect and system reliability can be ensured.

The method for measuring the display luminous flux l (lm) of the projector 6 may refer to the test method of ANSI lumens:

1) the distance between the projector and the screen in the display system is set as follows: 2.4 meters;

2) screen is 60 inches;

3) measuring the illuminance of each point on nine cross points in the shape of the Chinese character 'tian' on the screen by using an illuminometer, and calculating the average illuminance of 9 points;

4) the average illuminance multiplied by the projection screen area is the ANSI lumens, i.e. the display luminous flux of the present invention.

For different displayed pictures, the test value of L may have a large difference, and in the actual test, a full white picture is preferably displayed for testing, that is, each pixel is displayed as white;

when the illumination area of the projector cannot be well matched with the screen, the illumination test is carried out according to the actual illumination area to carry out a point taking test, preferably 8 points and 1 point in the illumination area, wherein the 8 points and the 1 point are uniformly selected in a light band which is within 10-30 cm of the illumination area from the outer boundary of the illumination area, the distance from the center of the screen is not more than 20cm, the illumination test is carried out on 9 points in total, and then the average value of the 9 illumination values is multiplied by the actual area of the illumination area to obtain a display light flux value.

For an application case containing only one projector 6, the display luminous flux may be tested in the above manner (the display luminous flux of a single projector is the same as the average display luminous flux), and when a plurality of projectors are used, the luminous flux of each projection unit may be tested separately and then averaged to serve as the value of the display luminous flux.

In addition, in an actual test, different design structures (such as differences in sealing and heat dissipation) also have a more significant influence on the service life of the system, so that in the actual test process, different design structures may bring certain fluctuation to actually measured data, but the overall trend does not change, and the optimal value of the display configuration parameter does not change.

The invention is further illustrated by the following examples:

it should be noted that, in the display system of the following embodiments, the projectors 6 all adopt common projectors, the number of the optical path folding mirror groups 10 is 1, and the optical path folding mirror groups and the projectors 6 are arranged on the same side of the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7;

example 1: a projector with a lens diameter of 0.5dm is adopted as the projector 6, and the viewpoint number n is 1, so that a single user can use a single eye to watch;

typically the number of user eyes is even, the number of viewpoints n is set to be even:

examples 2 to 24: 1 projector with a lens diameter larger than 6.5dm or 2 projectors with a lens diameter smaller than 6.5dm is adopted as the projector 6, and the viewpoint number n is 2, so that the projector can be watched by two eyes of a single user;

example 25: 4 projectors with the lens diameter of 0.4dm are used as the projectors 6, and the number n of system viewpoints is 4, so that the projectors can be used for a double user to watch simultaneously;

example 26: 6 projectors with the lens diameter of 0.3dm are adopted as the projectors 6, the number of viewpoints n is 6, and three families can watch the projectors simultaneously;

example 27: 8 projectors with the lens diameter of 0.2dm are adopted as the projectors 6, and four people watch the projectors simultaneously;

comparative example 1: a projector with a lens diameter of 8dm is used as the projector 6 for the single user to view with both eyes, as shown in the following table:

the data for examples 1-27 show that: display luminous flux visual point product n^1.27When L is not more than 24000, the display effect is good, the user scores are all over 80 points, and the luminous flux visual point product n is displayed in comparative example 1^1.27L is 31351, the user score is low, the picture is dazzling, and the actual display effect is not good enough.

In practical use, in addition to the design relationship between the number of viewpoints n and the light flux L, matching between the projector aperture size and the light flux is also required. When the aperture of the projector is large, the visual utilization rate of the display light is low, and many light rays can only reach the region outside the human eyes, so that the light flux needs to be increased appropriately at this time, and according to the application of the above embodiments 1 to 27, the following expression can be referred to for design in practical application:

based on the influence of the light source power on the display effect and reliability of the system. The life of the light source inside the projector is often greatly reduced when the light source is operated in a high-power mode, so that the projector is operated in a low-power mode as much as possible. However, when the number of viewpoints is large or when the aperture of a single projector is large, the visual utilization rate of the display light is low, and many light rays can only reach the area outside the human eyes, so that the power of the light source needs to be increased appropriately to improve the luminous flux at this time, and the average value of the power of the projection light source of the projector included in the projector 6 is P watts (W), which is found by the test that the system can operate under an optimal condition when the following relation is satisfied:

the measurement of the light source power P of the projection device can directly test the voltage at two ends of the light source and the current passing through the light source in the normal working state, and then multiply to obtain the power value.

On the basis of the embodiments 1 to 27, the light source power p (w) is introduced for explanation, which is specifically shown in the following table:

the data show that: power apparent dot product

The display effect is better, the user scores are more than 80 points, and the power in comparative example 1 is according to the dot product

679, the user score is low, the picture is dazzling, and the actual display effect is not good enough. Furthermore, a light source power of less than 400W is generally sufficient for a 5 year design life.

The general projector used in the above embodiment may be replaced with a holographic projector or other projection device capable of realizing three-dimensional picture display. While the above-mentioned design formulas relating to the number of viewpoints, the power of the light source and the display luminous flux are also used for the holographic projector.

In addition, practical tests show that 3000 hours can still work normally in the high-temperature and high-humidity environment (85 ℃ and 85% relative humidity) accelerated tests of examples 1-27, and a light source is damaged and cannot emit light in the comparative example 1 at 3000 hours, so that the service life can be greatly shortened due to unreasonable design parameters, the tests are commonly called double 85 aging tests, and the 3000 hour accelerated aging test is equivalent to the minimum service life standard of 5 years under the actual working condition.

The principles of the display system of the present invention may be referred to in the patent application No. 201910875975.1, which is briefly introduced here: the projector 6 can project pictures at different depths in space, that is, extra depth of field information can be provided for the projected pictures, but the pictures projected by the projector 6 are all divergent light and cannot be directly viewed by human eyes, which is also the reason that a conventional projection system must use a receiving screen.

The light path conversion function of the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7 can enable the divergent light projected by the projector 6 to converge to the optical conjugate position of the projector 6 relative to the transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7, namely the mirror image position of the projector, so that convergent light is formed and can be directly watched by human eyes.

Therefore, although the holographic display system of the present invention uses the transmissive geometric holographic screen 7, its function is completely different from that of the conventional projection display system. The receiving screen of conventional projection systems is used to randomly scatter light for viewing by a user. The transmission-type geometric holographic screen 7 acts more like a special optical element which performs a specific optical transformation of the light rays, reconverging the light rays emitted by the light spots on one side of the screen to a very small area in the vicinity of the mirror position of the light spots with respect to the screen, thus forming a convergent real image point suspended in the air. This unique imaging feature allows it to image at different depths in space (off-screen imaging) to achieve true 3D display.

The utility model discloses an among the holographic display system, the picture is thrown out to projector 6, forms in the space after the reflection of light path folding mirror group 10 and the optical transformation of transmission-type geometry holographic screen 7 from the screen display.

Follow the utility model discloses a show principle analysis and can discover, the picture that the user saw when using is unanimous with the picture that 6 projectors throwed away completely. How far away the projector 6 projects the picture from its outermost lens, and how far away the user sees the picture from the eyes. In life, the photopic distance of human eyes is generally 25cm, and the distance for watching the nearest object is generally 10cm, so that the projector 6 can be preferably used for selecting a projector (a common projector or a holographic projector) with the projection focal depth capable of being adjusted in a space (as shown in figure 8) more than 0.1m away from the outer surface of the outermost lens of the projection lens.

When the user is in a static state, the user can normally watch the picture only by adjusting the system structure to enable the eyes of the user to be covered by the window, but if the user is in a moving state, the eyes can be easily separated from the window, so that the user cannot normally watch the picture. Therefore, for an application scenario in which the user cannot be completely in a static state, it is very important to increase the eye-positioning tracking of the user and then adjust the spatial position of the window in real time so that the window always covers the eyes of the user. However, in an actual scene, the parameters of components of the display system are different, and it is difficult to find a set of tracking mode suitable for all systems. In principle, it is the most ideal solution if the user's eye movement track can be very accurately positioned, and then the window is driven to accurately track the user's eye movement track by adjusting the relative position and the overall spatial position between the projector and the transmissive geometric holographic screen. However, it is very difficult to track the user's eyes and control the position of the window accurately, and even if it is realized, it is not practical.

In fact, because the window has a certain size, human eyes can view the picture only in the window, so that the user does not need to completely and accurately track the movement track of the user's eyes during movement as long as the user's eyes can be approximately tracked and guaranteed to be in the window, even if the user's eyes slightly deviate from the window, but the picture can be normally viewed even if the pupils intersect with the window.

The above discussion is mainly directed to the situation that the user moves up and down left and right relative to the screen, and in addition, when the user moves back and forth, the user can completely and normally view the picture without deviating from the center of the window too much. In summary, the tracking of the user's eyes does not need to be particularly accurate, and the use requirement can be met only by ensuring a certain accuracy. Specifically, as shown in fig. 10, there is an intersecting diamond region for the light rays above and below the screen, and in principle, the picture can be observed only by adjusting the support structure in real time to make the eyes of the user always in the diamond visible space, but the problem of tracking loss is more likely to occur at the position close to the angular position of the diamond, so that a relatively small ellipsoid visible region is further defined in the diamond region, and the probability of tracking loss is reduced.

As shown in fig. 9, the ellipsoid region is a space satisfying the following relational expression in an optically conjugate coordinate system (X ', Y ', Z ') where an ellipsoid visual space is the visual space, and the visual space is a coordinate system (X, Y, Z) where the center of the outermost lens of the lens of each projector 6 is an origin, the outer normal of the lens center is a Y-axis direction, a straight line passing through the origin and perpendicular to the horizontal plane is an X-axis, and a straight line passing through the origin and perpendicular to the X-axis and the Y-axis is a Z-axis after optical conversion:

wherein K is an expansion constant with the unit of dm and the range of K is more than 0 and less than 0.08;

m is a conjugate deviation constant, and m is within the range of 0-5.

The coordinate system (X ', Y ', Z ') is a conjugate image finally formed after the coordinate system (X, Y, Z) is converted by the optical system, the above expression is a space surrounded by an ellipsoid, and the value of m affects the length of the ellipsoid in the Y-axis direction. As can be seen from the schematic diagram 10, the visual space has a certain extension in the Y ' axis direction, and practical tests show that the certain extension length of the visual space in the Y ' axis direction is about 6 times of the lens diameter D, and a clear picture can be seen in this range, but in consideration of the tracking effect, a better display effect can be easily achieved in the range that the extension length in the Y ' axis direction is less than 5 times of the lens diameter. In addition, practical tests found that:

when m is 5, all display areas of the picture can be clearly seen, and only in a local boundary area, the picture is slightly poor in definition but can still clearly distinguish display details;

when m is 3, all display areas of the picture can be clearly seen, the picture is clear even in a boundary area, and the tracking stability is very good;

when m is 2, the whole display range of the picture is complete, the display details are very clear, the tracking stability is good, and the tracking device is suitable for desktop office scenes due to occasional loss;

when m is 1, the whole display range of the picture is complete, the display details are very clear, the tracking stability is slightly poor, the tracking loss frequency is increased to a certain extent, and the method is suitable for viewing and entertainment application scenes;

k and D determine the cross section of a visual space in a plane vertical to the Y' axis, and in principle, a picture can be observed within the diameter range of the projection lens, and in fact, as long as human eyes are intersected with the optical conjugate area of the projection lens, even if people can see the picture without being completely within the optical conjugate area of the projection lens, an expansion constant K is introduced, the numerical value of the expansion constant K depends on the diameter size of human eyes, usually, the maximum value of the diameter of pupils of the human eyes is 0.08dm, and therefore, 0.08dm is taken as the expansion constant.

Although mathematically m may not take the value 0, taking 0 here has a physical meaning, i.e. a point on a plane where Y' is all equal to 0.

The utility model discloses can select the same model completely when using a plurality of projectors (ordinary projecting apparatus or holographic projector), also can choose different models for use according to the practical application scene demand.

The utility model discloses display system because the depth of focus degree of depth is adjustable, can avoid the user to watch the visual fatigue that fixed depth of focus picture caused for a long time to avoid the emergence of myopia, can improve the eyesight level.
