继续参考附图1至图3D,所述AR眼镜进一步包括一眼球追踪单元50和一控制单元60,所述眼球追踪单元50和所述控制单元60分别被设置于所述眼镜主体10,并且所述眼球追踪单元50和所述辐辏调节单元40的所述驱动器42分别被连接于所述控制单元60。所述眼球追踪模块40被设置用于追踪用户视线,确定聚焦位置到眼球的距离等信息,并将相关信息反馈至所述控制单元60,所述控制单元60被设置用于计算得到调节量并传输至所述辐辏调节单元40的所述 驱动器42,所述驱动器42依据指令进行调节所述光转向元件41的角度,如此改变所述光机30投射的图像光自所述光波导20的所述耦入区21耦入所述光波导20的方向,以调节所述AR眼镜的双目辐辏。
值得一提的是,所述眼球追踪单元50和所述控制单元60被设置于所述眼镜主体10的位置在本发明的所述AR眼镜中不受限制。例如,所述眼球追踪单元50和所述控制单元60可以分别被设置于所述眼镜主体10的不同位置,或者所述眼球追踪单元50和所述控制单元60在被集成后被设置于所述眼镜主体10的同一个位置,例如,集成后的所述眼球追踪单元50和所述控制单元60可以被设置于所述眼镜主体10的所述框架11的中部。
参考附图3A至图3D,当用户注视位置发生改变时,所述眼球追踪单元50获取眼球的晶状体的对焦距离X,所述控制单元60根据公式得到所述光转向元件41的偏转角为Δθ并发送指令给所述辐辏调节单元40的所述驱动器42,所述驱动器42带动所述光转向元件41旋转Δθ角度。可以理解的是,左侧的所述光转向元件41为逆时针旋转,右侧的所述光转向元件42为顺时针旋转,此时耦入光线与法线的夹角为2Δθ,双目辐辏距离调节为X,与眼球的晶状体的对焦距离X一致,其中PD为瞳距。例如,假设用户的瞳距为65mm,眼球的晶状体的对焦位置与眼球的距离为250mm,则此时所述光转向元件41的偏转角Δθ角度为3.7°,耦出光线与法线夹角为7.4°,此时双目辐辏距离为250mm,用户观察体验相对舒适。通常人的瞳距为52mm-72mm范围内,根据用户习惯,较为舒适的对焦距离在180mm-∞,那么的Δθ范围在0-5.7°之间。
附图4和图5示出了依本发明的另一较佳实施例的一AR眼镜,与附图1至图3D示出的所述AR眼镜不同的是,在附图4和图5示出的所述AR眼镜的这个具体示例中,所述光机30被设置于所述眼镜主体10的所述镜腿12,并且所述光机30的投影镜头的光轴和所述光波导20的所述耦入区21垂直。
所述AR眼镜进一步包括两转光部70,每个所述转光部70分别被设置于每个所述光机30和每个所述光转向元件41之间,其中当所述光机30投射的图像光到达所述转光部70后,所述转光部70用于使光线产生转向后向所述光转向元件41方向辐射。
例如,在附图4和图5示出的所述AR眼镜的这个具体示例中,所述转光部70是反射元件,例如反射镜,其具有反射面,所述转光部70的反射面朝向所述 光机30和所述光转向元件41,当所述光机30投射的图像光到达所述转光部70的反射面时,所述转光部70以反射方式使到达所述转光部70的图像光进行转向,并且图像光在被转向后朝向所述光转向元件41方向辐射,其中在在被所述转光部70转向后的图像光到达所述光转向元件41后,所述光转向元件40进一步使图像光转向,以在后续能够经所述光波导20的所述耦入区21耦入所述光波导20。优选地,所述转光部70的反射面和所述光波导30的所述耦入区21的夹角为45°。
可选地,在所述AR眼镜的其他示例中,所述转光部70可以是折光元件,例如折光透镜,当所述光机30投射的图像光到达所述转光部70时,所述转光部70以折射方式使到达所述转光部70的图像光进行转向,并且图像光在被转向后朝向所述光转向元件41方向辐射,其中在被所述转光部70转向后的图像光到达所述光转向元件41后,所述光转向元件40进一步使图像光转向,以在后续能够经所述光波导20的所述耦入区21耦入所述光波导20。
附图6示出了依本发明的另一较佳实施例的一AR眼镜,与附图1至图3D示出的所述AR眼镜不同的是,在附图6示出的所述AR眼镜的这个具体示例中,所述AR眼镜包括所述眼镜主体10以及被设置于所述眼镜主体10的两个所述光波导20、一个所述光机30和一个所述辐辏调节单元40,其中所述辐辏调节单元40包括一个所述光转向元件41和一个半反半透元件43,所述半反半透元件43被设置于所述光机30和一个所述光波导20之间,当所述光机30投射的图像光到达所述半反半透元件43后,所述半反半透元件43允许图像光中的一部分被反射至一个所述光波导20并经所述光波导20的所述耦入区21耦入所述光波导20,所述半反半透元件43允许图像光中的另一部分穿过并朝向所述光转向元件41的方向辐射,在图像光穿过所述半反半透元件43并到达所述光转向元件41后能够被转向,并经另一个所述光波导20的所述耦入区21耦入所述光波导20。
值得一提的是,所述半反半透元件43的透光率在本发明的所述AR眼镜中不受限,例如,在附图6示出的所述AR眼镜的这个具体示例中,所述半反半透元件43允许50%的光线被反射和允许50%的光线穿过。换言之,打当所述光机30投射的图像光到达所述半反半透元件43后,所述半反半透元件43允许图像光中的50%被反射至一个所述光波导20并经所述光波导20的所述耦入区21耦入所述光波导20,同时,所述半反半透元件43允许图像光中的另外50%穿过并朝向 所述光转向元件41方向辐射,在到达所述光转向元件41后再次被所述光转向元件41转向并经另一个所述光波导20的所述耦入区21耦入所述光波导20。
值得一提的是,所述半反半透元件43的类型在本发明的所述AR眼镜中不受限制,例如所述半反半透元件43可以是PBS棱镜。
优选地,所述光转向元件41和所述半反半透元件43的初始角度均为45°,并且所述光转向元件41和所述半反半透元件43的倾斜角度均被可调节,以调节所述AR眼镜的双目辐辏。也就是说,所述辐辏调节单元40包括两个所述驱动器42,其中所述光转向元件41被连接于一个所述驱动器42,以允许所述光转向元件41被驱动而调节所述光转向元件41的倾斜角度,其中所述半反半透元件43被连接于另一个所述驱动器42,以允许所述半反半透元件41被驱动而调节所述半反半透元件43的倾斜角度。
依本发明的另一个方面,本发明进一步提供AR眼镜的双目辐辏调节方法,其中所述双目辐辏调节方法包括如下步骤:
(a)允许所述光机30投射的图像光在经所述光转向元件41的转向作用后自所述光波导20的所述耦入区21耦入;和
(b)调节所述光转向元件41的倾斜角度,以改变所述光机30投射的图像光自所述光波导20的所述耦入区21耦入的方向,以调节所述AR眼镜的双目辐辏,从而允许所述AR眼镜为用户带来良好的视觉体验。
优选地,在所述步骤(a)和所述步骤(b)之间,所述双目辐辏调节方法进一步包括步骤:
(c)获取眼球的晶状体的对焦距离;和
(d)根据眼球的晶状体的对焦距离确定被设置于所述光转向元件41的偏转角,其中在所述步骤(b)中,依据确定的偏转角调节所述光转向元件41的倾斜角度。
