三维(three dimensional,3D)显示可以给观察者很强的立体逼真感,而且会增加显示景深以及提升显示内容的丰富性。通常3D技术的实现是基于左眼和右眼两组图像信息,并将其投影到荧幕之上,观测者使用偏振光眼镜来分离图像信息,使得左眼获取一组图像信息,右眼获取另外一组图像信息。Three-dimensional (3D) display can give the observer a strong sense of three-dimensional realism, increase the display depth of field, and enhance the richness of the display content.

The observer uses polarized glasses to separate the image information, so that the left eye acquires a set of image information and the right eye Eyes obtain another set of image information.
随着3D显示技术的发展,裸眼3D显示技术(或称为视差屏障或视差障栅技术)已成为研究的热点之一。目前裸眼3D显示技术可以在不借助偏振光眼镜等外部工具,通过光屏障技术实现立体视觉效果。然而,基于光屏障技术显示的3D图像会造成分辨率的损失。With the development of 3D display technology, naked-eye 3D display technology (also known as parallax barrier or parallax barrier technology) has become one of the hot spots of research. At present, naked-eye 3D display technology can achieve stereoscopic visual effects through light barrier technology without the use of external tools such as polarized glasses. However, 3D images displayed based on light barrier technology will cause a loss of resolution.
综上所示,如何在不损失分辨率的情况下实现图像显示,是当前亟需解决的技术问题。To sum up, how to realize image display without losing resolution is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

具体实施方式Detailed ways
下面将结合附图,对本申请实施例进行详细描述。The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
下面对本申请可能的应用场景进行介绍。The possible application scenarios of this application are introduced below.
在一种可能的应用场景中,本申请提供的显示模组也可以集成于抬头显示设备(head-up device,HUD),请参阅图1a,以HUD安装于车辆为例介绍。HUD可将形成的图像(称为HUD虚像)投射在驾驶员的前方视野范围,并与真实路面信息融合起来,从而可增强驾驶员对于实际驾驶环境的感知。例如,HUD可以将携带导航信息(如方向箭头、距离、和/或行驶时间等)和/或车辆的状态信息(如行驶速度、行驶里程、转速、温度、油量、和/或车灯状态等信息)的HUD虚像叠加在车辆外的真实环境(如安全车距、周围障碍物、和/或倒车影像等)上,使得驾驶员可获得增强现实的视觉效果。基于此,车辆可以实现增强现实(augmented reality,AR)导航、自适应巡航、车道偏离预警等功能。或者,可以结合高级驾驶辅助系统(advanced driving assistant system,ADAS)的功能,实现车辆的辅助驾驶或智能驾驶等。通常,为了不干扰路况,基于车辆的状态信息形成的HUD虚像的虚像距约在2~3米。为了使得基于导航信息形成的HUD虚像与真实路面能够更好的融合,基于导航信息形成的HUD虚像的虚像距约为7~15米。其中,HUD包括但不限于挡风玻璃(windshield-head up device,W-HUD)、或AR-HUD等。In a possible application scenario, the display module provided by this application can also be integrated into a head-up display device (HUD). Please refer to Figure 1a, which takes the HUD installed in a vehicle as an example. HUD can project the formed image (called HUD virtual image) into the driver's front field of view and fuse it with real road information, thereby enhancing the driver's perception of the actual driving environment. For example, the HUD can carry navigation information (such as direction arrows, distance, and/or driving time, etc.) and/or vehicle status information (such as driving speed, driving mileage, rotation speed, temperature, fuel level, and/or car light status). and other information) is superimposed on the real environment outside the vehicle (such as safe distance, surrounding obstacles, and/or reversing images, etc.), so that the driver can obtain augmented reality visual effects. Based on this, vehicles can implement augmented reality (AR) navigation, adaptive cruise, lane departure warning and other functions. Alternatively, it can be combined with the functions of the advanced driving assist system (ADAS) to achieve assisted driving or intelligent driving of the vehicle. Usually, in order not to interfere with road conditions, the virtual image distance of the HUD virtual image formed based on the vehicle's status information is about 2 to 3 meters. In order to better integrate the HUD virtual image formed based on navigation information with the real road surface, the virtual image distance of the HUD virtual image formed based on navigation information is approximately 7 to 15 meters. Among them, HUD includes but is not limited to windshield-head up device (W-HUD), or AR-HUD, etc.
在又一种可能的应用场景中,本申请提供的显示模组也可以集成于近眼显示(near eye display,NED)设备。NED设备例如可以是AR设备或虚拟(virtual reality,VR)设备,AR设备可以包括但不限于AR眼镜或AR头盔,VR设备可以包括但不限于VR眼镜或VR头盔。请参阅图1b,以AR眼镜为例示例,用户可佩戴AR眼镜进行游戏、观看视频、参加虚拟会议、或视频购物等。In another possible application scenario, the display module provided by this application can also be integrated into a near eye display (NED) device. The NED device may be, for example, an AR device or a virtual reality (VR) device. The AR device may include but is not limited to AR glasses or an AR helmet. The VR device may include but is not limited to VR glasses or a VR helmet. Please refer to Figure 1b, taking AR glasses as an example. Users can wear AR glasses to play games, watch videos, participate in virtual meetings, or video shopping, etc.
在又一种可能的应用场景中,本申请提供的显示模组也可以集成于车载显示屏。请参阅图1c,车载显示屏可以安装在车辆的座椅后背或副驾驶位置等,本申请对车载显示屏安装的 位置不作限定,图1c是以安装于座椅后背示例的。In another possible application scenario, the display module provided by this application can also be integrated into a vehicle-mounted display screen. Please refer to Figure 1c. The vehicle-mounted display screen can be installed on the back of the vehicle's seat or in the passenger seat. This application covers the installation of vehicle-mounted display screens. The position is not limited. Figure 1c shows an example of being installed on the back of the seat.
应理解,上述给出的可能的应用场景仅是举例,本申请提供的显示模组还可以集成于包括图像生成单元(picture generation unit,PGU)和反射组件的设备中,或者其它可能的智能虚像光显、虚空显示等其它可能显示场景,而不限于上述示例出的场景。It should be understood that the possible application scenarios given above are only examples. The display module provided by this application can also be integrated into a device including a picture generation unit (picture generation unit, PGU) and a reflective component, or other possible smart virtual images. There are other possible display scenarios such as light display, void display, etc., and are not limited to the scenes illustrated in the above examples.
如背景技术介绍,目前基于光屏障技术的图像显示会造成分辨率的损失。鉴于此,本申请提供一种显示模组。该显示模组可以不损失显示的图像的分辨率。As introduced in the background art, current image display based on light barrier technology will cause a loss of resolution. In view of this, this application provides a display module. The display module can be used without losing the resolution of the displayed image.
基于上述内容,下面结合附图对本申请提出的显示模组进行具体阐述。Based on the above content, the display module proposed in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
如图2所示,为本申请提供的一种显示模组的结构示意图。该显示模组包括光源组件、光学整形组件、光调制组件和反射组件,光学整形组件位于光源组件与光调制组件之间。其中,光源组件用于分时发射第一光束和第二光束,第一光束和第二光束从光源组件的出射位置不同。也可以理解为,光源组件在不同的时段从不同位置发射出不同的光束。光学整形组件用于调整第一光束的指向得到第三光束,以及调整第二光束的指向得到第四光束。光调制组件用于对第三光束进行调制得到携带第一图像信息的第一图像光,以及对第四光束进行调制得到携带第二图像信息的第二图像光。反射组件用于将第一图像光反射至观察者的左眼成像,以及将第二图像光反射至观察者的右眼成像。As shown in Figure 2, it is a schematic structural diagram of a display module provided by this application. The display module includes a light source component, an optical shaping component, a light modulating component and a reflecting component. The optical shaping component is located between the light source component and the light modulating component. Wherein, the light source component is used to emit the first light beam and the second light beam in a time-sharing manner, and the first light beam and the second light beam emit different positions from the light source component. It can also be understood that the light source component emits different light beams from different positions at different time periods. The optical shaping component is used to adjust the direction of the first light beam to obtain the third light beam, and adjust the direction of the second light beam to obtain the fourth light beam. The light modulation component is used to modulate the third light beam to obtain first image light carrying first image information, and to modulate the fourth light beam to obtain second image light carrying second image information. The reflective component is used to reflect the first image light to the observer's left eye for imaging, and to reflect the second image light to the observer's right eye for imaging.
结合图3,第一光束的传播光路为:光源组件发射第一光束,第一光束经光学整形组件调整指向得到第三光束,第三光束经光调制组件将第一图像信息调制于第三光束得到第一图像光,第一图像光经反射组件发射至观察者的左眼成像。第二光束的传播光路为:光源组件发射第二光束,第二光束经光学整形组件调整指向得到第四光束,第四光束经光调制组件将第二图像信息调制于第四光束得到第二图像光,第二图像光经反射组件反射至观察者的右眼成像。With reference to Figure 3, the propagation light path of the first beam is: the light source component emits the first beam, the first beam is adjusted by the optical shaping component to obtain a third beam, and the third beam modulates the first image information into the third beam through the light modulation component. The first image light is obtained, and the first image light is emitted to the observer's left eye for imaging through the reflective component. The propagation light path of the second beam is: the light source component emits the second beam, the second beam is adjusted by the optical shaping component to obtain a fourth beam, and the fourth beam is modulated by the light modulation component to modulate the second image information into the fourth beam to obtain the second image. The second image light is reflected by the reflective component to the observer's right eye for imaging.
基于上述显示模组,由于光学整形组件位于光源组件与光调制组件之间,光源组件可以与光学整形组件配合生成方向性背光,光调制组件通过时分的方式加载第一图像信息或第二图像信息,观察者单眼即可看到光调制组件的所有像素调制的第一图像信息或第二图像信息,也可以理解为,观察者单眼即可看到光调制组件调制的完整的第一图像信息或第二图像信息,因此,可以减小或避免显示的图像的分辨率的损失。进一步,第一图像光在左眼成像,第二图像光在右眼成像,观察者可以观察到不同的视差图像,若第一图像信息和第二图像信息不同,可获得立体的3D图像效果。可以理解的是,若第一图像信息与第二图像信息相同,显示模组也可以显示二维图像效果。Based on the above display module, since the optical shaping component is located between the light source component and the light modulation component, the light source component can cooperate with the optical shaping component to generate directional backlight, and the light modulation component loads the first image information or the second image information in a time-division manner. , the observer can see the first image information or the second image information modulated by all the pixels of the light modulation component with one eye. It can also be understood that the observer can see the complete first image information or the second image information modulated by the light modulation component with one eye. The second image information, therefore, can reduce or avoid the loss of resolution of the displayed image. Furthermore, the first image light is imaged on the left eye, and the second image light is imaged on the right eye. The observer can observe different parallax images. If the first image information and the second image information are different, a three-dimensional 3D image effect can be obtained. It can be understood that if the first image information and the second image information are the same, the display module can also display a two-dimensional image effect.
下面对图2所示的各个功能组件和结构分别进行介绍说明,以给出示例性的具体实现方案。Each functional component and structure shown in Figure 2 will be introduced and explained separately below to provide an exemplary specific implementation solution.
一、光源组件1. Light source components
在一种可能的实现方式中,光源组件用于根据接收到的控制信号,分时发射第一光束和第二光束。In a possible implementation, the light source component is configured to emit the first light beam and the second light beam in a time-divided manner according to the received control signal.
如下基于示例性的示出了两种可能的光源组件的结构,分别详细介绍光源组件分时发射第一光束和第二光束的过程。The following shows two possible structures of the light source assembly based on examples, and the process of the light source assembly emitting the first light beam and the second light beam in a time-division manner is introduced in detail respectively.
结构一,光源组件包括光源阵列。Structure 1: the light source component includes a light source array.
在一种可能的实现方式中,光源阵列包括第一光源和第二光源。光源阵列根据接收到的第一控制信号,在第一时段第一光源发射第一光束,在第二时段第二光源发射第二光束。其 中,第一控制信号包括第一光源的位置信息及第二光源的位置信息。可以理解的是,第一光源开启的第一时段T1、第二光源开启的第二时段T2可以在显示模组初始化过程中可以设置;或者,第一光源开启的第一时段T1、第二光源开启的第二时段T2也可以携带于第一控制信号中。需要说明的是,开启第一光源和第二光源间隔预设时长Δt,请参阅图4,通常预设时长Δt等于光调制组件的调制时长T5In a possible implementation, the light source array includes a first light source and a second light source. According to the received first control signal, the light source array emits the first light beam from the first light source during the first period and the second light beam from the second light source during the second period. That , the first control signal includes position information of the first light source and position information of the second light source. It can be understood that the first period T 1 during which the first light source is turned on and the second period T 2 during which the second light source is turned on can be set during the initialization process of the display module; or, the first period T 1 and T 2 during which the first light source is turned on can be set. The second period T2 during which the second light source is turned on may also be carried in the first control signal. It should be noted that there is a preset time period Δt between turning on the first light source and the second light source. Please refer to Figure 4. Usually, the preset time period Δt is equal to the modulation time length T 5 of the light modulation component.
具体的,光源阵列可根据第一控制信号中的第一光源的位置信息确定需要开启的第一光源,第一光源在第一时段T1开启,开启的第一光源用于发射第一光束;根据第二光源的位置信息确定需要开启的第二光源,第二光源在第二时段T2开启,开启的第二光源用于发射第二光束。Specifically, the light source array can determine the first light source that needs to be turned on based on the position information of the first light source in the first control signal. The first light source is turned on in the first period T1 , and the turned on first light source is used to emit the first light beam; The second light source that needs to be turned on is determined according to the position information of the second light source. The second light source is turned on in the second period T2 , and the turned on second light source is used to emit the second light beam.
下面基于光源阵列的分布方式,如下示例性的示出了三种可能的情形。Based on the distribution of the light source array, three possible situations are exemplarily shown below.
情形一,光源阵列中的光源呈平面分布。In case one, the light sources in the light source array are distributed in a plane.
在一种可能的实现方式中,光源阵列包括m×n个光源,m为大于1的整数,n为正整数;或者,m为正整数,n为大于1的整数。具体的,光源阵列可以是一维阵列(或称为线列型),或者也可以是二维阵列(或称为面阵型)。In a possible implementation, the light source array includes m×n light sources, m is an integer greater than 1, and n is a positive integer; or, m is a positive integer, and n is an integer greater than 1. Specifically, the light source array may be a one-dimensional array (or called a linear array), or it may be a two-dimensional array (or called an area array).
如下基于光源阵列中光源的排列方式分两种情形介绍。The following is an introduction in two situations based on the arrangement of light sources in the light source array.

In this example, the light source array includes 6×1 light sources as an example. It can also be understood that these six light sources are arranged in strips along the row direction.
情形2,光源阵列中的光源为二维排列。Case 2: The light sources in the light source array are arranged two-dimensionally.
基于光源阵列中的光源在行方向和/或列方向的对齐方式可进一步分如下五种情形介绍。Based on the alignment of the light sources in the light source array in the row direction and/or column direction, the method can be further divided into the following five situations.

The light sources in the light source array are staggered at equal intervals in the row direction. In this example, a staggered arrangement with a three-row period (or period called a staggered arrangement) is taken as an example. The staggered size of any two adjacent light sources in the row direction is equal. is Δ 1 . It should be noted that the misalignment size Δ 1 in the row direction is smaller than the distance S 1 between the centers of two adjacent light sources.
情形2.3,光源阵列中的光源在列方向等间隔的错位排列,在行方向是对齐排列的。In case 2.3, the light sources in the light source array are staggered at equal intervals in the column direction, but are aligned in the row direction.
如图5d所示,为本申请提供的又一种光源阵列的错位排列的结构示意图。其中,该光源阵列中的光源在列方向上是等间隔的错位排列的,该示例中以3列为周期的错位排列为例,任意相邻两个光源在列方向的错位大小为Δ2。需要说明的是,在列方向的错位大小Δ2小于相邻两个光源的中心之间的距离H1As shown in Figure 5d, it is a schematic structural diagram of another staggered arrangement of light source array provided by the present application. The light sources in the light source array are staggered at equal intervals in the column direction. In this example, a three-column periodic staggered arrangement is taken as an example. The stagger size of any two adjacent light sources in the column direction is Δ 2 . It should be noted that the dislocation size Δ 2 in the column direction is smaller than the distance H 1 between the centers of two adjacent light sources.
应理解,上述图5c中的错位大小Δ1可以与上述图5d中的错位大小Δ2相同,也可以不相同,本申请对此不作限定。It should be understood that the dislocation size Δ 1 in the above-mentioned Fig. 5c may be the same as the dislocation size Δ 2 in the above-mentioned Fig. 5d, or may be different, and this application does not limit this.

可以理解的是,光源阵列中光源在行方向上错位排列方式也可以是上述情形2.2和情形2.5的组合,即部分是等间隔的错位排列,部分是非等间隔错位排列。可参见图5g,在行方向的错位大小为Δ7、Δ8和Δ7。类似的,光源阵列中光源在列方向上错位排列方式也可以是上述情形2.3和情形2.5的组合,即部分是等间隔的错位排列,部分是非等间隔错位排列。可参见图5h,在列方向的错位大小为Δ9、Δ0和Δ9。可以理解的是,为了尽可能的减小光学串扰,相邻两个光源之间的间隔可以设置的大些,例如,相邻两个光源之间的间隔可设置为400微米或更大。It can be understood that the staggered arrangement of the light sources in the row direction in the light source array can also be a combination of the above situations 2.2 and 2.5, that is, some are equally spaced staggered arrangements, and some are non-equally spaced staggered arrangements. Referring to Figure 5g, the misalignment sizes in the row direction are Δ7 , Δ8 and Δ7 .

请参阅图7a,为本申请提供的一种光源阵列中的光源为曲面分布的结构示意图。请参阅图7b或图7c,为曲面分布的光源阵列的三维图。通过曲面分布的光源,可以使得观察者在边缘和中央看到的图像尽基本一致,从而可以扩大显示模组的眼盒范围。Please refer to Figure 7a, which is a schematic structural diagram of a light source array provided by the present application in which the light sources are distributed on a curved surface. Please refer to Figure 7b or Figure 7c, which is a three-dimensional diagram of a light source array distributed on a curved surface. Through the light source distributed on the curved surface, the image seen by the observer at the edge and the center can be basically consistent, thereby expanding the eye box range of the display module.
需要说明的是,上述给出的光源阵列可以实现独立寻址。独立寻址是指可独立选通(或称为点亮或开启或通电)光源阵列中的光源,选通的光源用于发射第一光束或第二光束。例如,向光源阵列中的第一光源输入驱动电流,以选通第一光源。向光源阵列中的第二光源输入驱动电流,以选通第二光源。可以理解的是,光源阵列的寻址方式与光源阵列中光源的物理连接关系相关。例如,若光源阵列中各个光源的物理连接方式为并联,则可以逐点选通光源,或者也可以按需选通光源,其中,按需选通例如可以是在某一时刻选通特定位置的光源等。再比如,光源阵列中的同一列内的光源串联,不同列之间并联,则可以逐列选通光源阵 列中的光源。再比如,光源阵列同一行内的光源串联,不同行之间并联,则可以逐行选通光源阵列中的光源。再比如,若光源阵列中各斜对角线上的光源串联,不同斜对角线上光源并联,则可以按斜对角线选通光源阵列中的光源等,此处不再逐一列举。It should be noted that the light source array given above can achieve independent addressing. Independent addressing means that the light sources in the light source array can be independently gated (or called on or turned on or powered on), and the gated light sources are used to emit the first beam or the second beam. For example, a driving current is input to a first light source in the light source array to strobe the first light source. A driving current is input to the second light source in the light source array to strobe the second light source. It can be understood that the addressing mode of the light source array is related to the physical connection relationship of the light sources in the light source array. For example, if the physical connection mode of each light source in the light source array is parallel, the light sources can be gated point by point, or the light sources can be gated on demand, where, for example, the gate on demand can be gated on a specific position at a certain time. Light source, etc. For another example, if the light sources in the same column in the light source array are connected in series and different columns are connected in parallel, the light source array can be gated column by column. The light source in the column. For another example, if the light sources in the same row of the light source array are connected in series and different rows are connected in parallel, the light sources in the light source array can be gated row by row. For another example, if the light sources on diagonal lines in the light source array are connected in series and the light sources on different diagonal lines are connected in parallel, the light sources in the light source array can be gated according to the diagonal lines, etc., which will not be listed one by one here.

结构二,光源组件包括面光源和光阀。Structure 2, the light source component includes an area light source and a light valve.
在一种可能的实现方式中,光源组件可以包括面光源和光阀。进一步,面光源可以为平面型面光源,光阀可以为平面型光阀。请参阅图8a,光阀可以覆盖完整的面光源,当某一位置的光阀打开,面光源发射的面光束可以从打开光阀的位置射出。In a possible implementation, the light source component may include a surface light source and a light valve. Furthermore, the surface light source can be a planar surface light source, and the light valve can be a planar light valve. Please refer to Figure 8a. The light valve can cover the complete area light source. When the light valve at a certain position is opened, the area beam emitted by the area light source can be emitted from the position where the light valve is opened.
其中,面光源用于发射面光束,通常面光源为常亮状态。光阀用于根据接收到的第二控制信号在第三时段打开第一位置的光阀,面光源发射的面光束中的第一光束经第一位置射出,请参阅图8b中的(1)。进一步,光阀用于根据第二控制信号在第四时段打开第二位置的光阀,面光源发射的面光束中的第二光束经第二位置射出,请参阅图8b中的(2)。Among them, the surface light source is used to emit surface beams, and usually the surface light source is always on. The light valve is used to open the light valve at the first position in the third period according to the received second control signal. The first beam of the surface beam emitted by the surface light source is emitted through the first position. Please refer to (1) in Figure 8b . Further, the light valve is used to open the light valve at the second position in the fourth period according to the second control signal, and the second light beam in the surface beam emitted by the surface light source is emitted through the second position, please refer to (2) in Figure 8b.
也可以理解为,第二控制信号包括光阀的第一位置信息、及光阀的第二位置信息。其中,光阀的第一位置信息包括需要打开的光阀的第一宽度和第一中心坐标,或者,包括需要打开的光阀的第一起始位置和第一终止位置。光阀的第二位置信息包括需要打开的光阀的第二宽度和第二中心坐标,或者,包括需要打开的光阀的第二起始位置和第二终止位置。其中,第一宽度可以与第二宽度相同也可以不同,本申请对此不作限定。可以理解的是,第一位置的光阀打开的第三时段T3和第二位置的光阀打开的第四时段T4可以在显示模组初始化过程中设置;或者,第一位置的光阀打开的第三时段T3和第二位置的光阀打开的第四时段T4也可以携带于第一控制信号中。需要说明的是,打开第一位置的光阀和打开第二位置的光阀间隔预设时长Δt,预设时长Δt可参见前述相关介绍,此处不再赘述。It can also be understood that the second control signal includes the first position information of the light valve and the second position information of the light valve. The first position information of the light valve includes the first width and the first center coordinate of the light valve that needs to be opened, or includes the first starting position and the first end position of the light valve that needs to be opened. The second position information of the light valve includes the second width and the second center coordinate of the light valve that needs to be opened, or includes the second starting position and the second end position of the light valve that needs to be opened. The first width may be the same as the second width or may be different, which is not limited in this application. It can be understood that the third period T 3 during which the light valve is opened at the first position and the fourth period T 4 during which the light valve is opened at the second position can be set during the initialization process of the display module; or, the light valve at the first position is opened. The third period T 3 of opening and the fourth period T 4 of the light valve opening of the second position may also be carried in the first control signal. It should be noted that the interval between opening the light valve in the first position and opening the light valve in the second position is a preset time period Δt. The preset time period Δt can be found in the above-mentioned relevant introduction, and will not be described again here.
具体的,光阀根据接收到的第二控制信号,在第三时段打开第一位置的光阀,在第三时段内,面光源发射的面光束中的第一光束经第一位置射出;以及在第四时段打开第二位置的光阀,在第四时段内,面光源发射的面光束中的第二光束经第二位置射出。可以理解的是,第一光束为面光束中的部分光束,第二光束也为面光束中的部分光束,第一光束和第二光束从光阀出射的位置不同。Specifically, the light valve opens the light valve at the first position in the third period according to the received second control signal, and in the third period, the first light beam in the surface beam emitted by the surface light source is emitted through the first position; and In the fourth period, the light valve at the second position is opened. In the fourth period, the second beam of the surface beam emitted by the surface light source is emitted through the second position. It can be understood that the first light beam is a partial light beam in the surface beam, and the second light beam is also a partial light beam in the surface light beam. The first light beam and the second light beam emit from the light valve at different positions.
通过光阀配合面光源可更精确的调整第一光束和第二光束,使得在眼跟踪状态下,第一光束和第二光束的切换更平滑,观察者在眼盒内移动观察到的图像闪烁更少、更加稳定;且通过控制光阀开启的宽度,能够精准匹配更大的观看深度范围。Through the light valve and the surface light source, the first beam and the second beam can be adjusted more accurately, so that in the eye tracking state, the switching of the first beam and the second beam is smoother, and the image flickering observed by the observer moving within the eye box Fewer and more stable; and by controlling the opening width of the light valve, it can accurately match a larger viewing depth range.
二、光学整形组件2. Optical shaping components
在一种可能的实现方式中,光学整形组件用于调整第一光束的指向得到第三光束,以及调整第二光束的指向得到第四光束。具体的,光学整形组件用于改变来自光源组件的第一光束的传播方向,以使得第一光束聚焦至某一位置,以及改变来自光源组件的第二光束的传播方向,以使得第二光束聚焦至另一位置。In a possible implementation, the optical shaping component is used to adjust the direction of the first light beam to obtain the third light beam, and adjust the direction of the second light beam to obtain the fourth light beam. Specifically, the optical shaping component is used to change the propagation direction of the first light beam from the light source assembly so that the first light beam is focused to a certain position, and to change the propagation direction of the second light beam from the light source assembly so that the second light beam is focused. to another location.
如下示例性的示出了两种可能的光学整形组件的结构。 The following exemplarily illustrates two possible structures of the optical shaping component.
结构A,光学整形组件包括透镜。Structure A, the optical shaping component includes a lens.
在一种可能的实现方式中,透镜包括球面透镜、或非球面透镜或菲涅尔透镜(请参阅图9a)。菲涅尔透镜(fresnel lens)也可以称为螺纹透镜,菲涅尔透镜的表面的一面为光面,另一面刻录了由小到大的同心圆(或称为纹路或菲涅尔带),因此,通过菲涅尔透镜可以使得图像的边缘的像差较小。由于非球面透镜从中心到边缘的曲率连续发生变化,因此,通过非球面透镜可以使得不同方向的光束都会聚焦在同一个定点上,因此,可以减小显示模组的视场边缘的像差。In a possible implementation, the lens includes a spherical lens, an aspheric lens or a Fresnel lens (see Figure 9a). Fresnel lenses can also be called threaded lenses. One side of the surface of the Fresnel lens is smooth, and the other side is inscribed with concentric circles (or textures or Fresnel strips) from small to large. Therefore, the Fresnel lens can make the aberration at the edge of the image smaller. Since the curvature of the aspherical lens continuously changes from the center to the edge, the aspherical lens can focus the light beams in different directions on the same fixed point, thus reducing the aberration at the edge of the display module's field of view.
示例性的,透镜的材料可以是玻璃、树脂、或晶体等光学材料。当透镜的材料为树脂时,可以减轻显示模组的质量。当透镜的材料为玻璃时,有助于提高显示模组的成像质量以及抑制温漂。本申请对透镜的材料不作限定。For example, the material of the lens may be optical materials such as glass, resin, or crystal. When the material of the lens is resin, the quality of the display module can be reduced. When the material of the lens is glass, it helps to improve the imaging quality of the display module and suppress temperature drift. This application does not limit the material of the lens.
结构B,光学整形组件包括透镜阵列。Structure B, the optical shaping component includes a lens array.
在一种可能的实现方式中,透镜阵列包括球面透镜阵列(请参阅图9b)、非球面透镜阵列(请参阅图9c)或菲涅尔透镜阵列(请参阅图9d)。关于透镜阵列中透镜的材料可参见前述相关介绍,此处不再赘述。其中,透镜阵列的节距p是指透镜阵列中单个透镜的有效直径或有效口径的大小。由于非球面透镜阵列,既可以减小显示模组的视场边缘的像差,而且可以在较大视场(field of view,FOV)的情况下,光源组件也可以设计为平面光源阵列,进而可以降低加工和组装复杂度。In a possible implementation, the lens array includes a spherical lens array (see Figure 9b), an aspherical lens array (see Figure 9c) or a Fresnel lens array (see Figure 9d). Regarding the materials of the lenses in the lens array, please refer to the relevant introduction mentioned above and will not be repeated here. Among them, the pitch p of the lens array refers to the effective diameter or effective aperture size of a single lens in the lens array. Due to the aspherical lens array, the aberration at the edge of the field of view of the display module can be reduced, and in the case of a larger field of view (FOV), the light source component can also be designed as a planar light source array, thus Processing and assembly complexity can be reduced.
进一步,可选的,透镜阵列可以为平面分布的透镜阵列。基于此,有助于减小显示模组的厚度。Further, optionally, the lens array may be a planarly distributed lens array. Based on this, it helps to reduce the thickness of the display module.
若光源组件包括光源阵列,光学整形组件包括透镜阵列。在一种可能的实现方式中,透镜阵列中的一个透镜对应光源阵列中的至少两个光源。换言之,一个透镜对应的多个光源中的部分光源作为第一光源,另外部分光源作为第二光源。例如,一个观察者在观看,一个透镜下可对应两个光源,其中一个作为第一光源,另一个作为第二光源。为了满足多个观察者可以同时观看,一个透镜可对应至少四个光源。也可以理解为,对于透镜阵列中的每个透镜,其都有一个与一个观察者的左眼位置对应的光源以及和右眼位置对应的光源。If the light source component includes a light source array, the optical shaping component includes a lens array. In a possible implementation, one lens in the lens array corresponds to at least two light sources in the light source array. In other words, part of the light sources among the plurality of light sources corresponding to one lens serve as the first light source, and other part of the light sources serve as the second light source. For example, when an observer is watching, one lens can correspond to two light sources, one of which serves as the first light source and the other as the second light source. In order to allow multiple observers to watch at the same time, one lens can correspond to at least four light sources. It can also be understood that for each lens in the lens array, it has a light source corresponding to the position of an observer's left eye and a light source corresponding to the position of the right eye.
可以理解的是,对于光源阵列,某一时段开启的第一光源(或第二光源)的数量与第一光源(或第二光源)的横向宽度、第一光源阵列(或第二光源阵列)的密度、透镜阵列包括的透镜的数量有关,其中,第一光源(或第二光源)的横向是指平行于透镜的节距p的方向。每一次需要开启的第一光源(或第二光源)的横向总宽度(或称为横向发光宽度相当于透镜的物高)是一定的,开启的第一光源(或第二光源)数量与单个第一光源(或第二光源)的横向宽度和第一光源阵列(或第二光源阵列)的密度有关,横向宽度越小且密度越大,单次开启的第一光源(或第二光源)的数量越多。It can be understood that for the light source array, the number of first light sources (or second light sources) turned on in a certain period of time is related to the lateral width of the first light source (or second light source), the first light source array (or second light source array) The density is related to the number of lenses included in the lens array, where the lateral direction of the first light source (or the second light source) refers to the direction parallel to the pitch p of the lenses. The total lateral width of the first light source (or second light source) that needs to be turned on each time (or the lateral luminous width is equivalent to the object height of the lens) is certain, and the number of first light sources (or second light sources) turned on is the same as a single The lateral width of the first light source (or second light source) is related to the density of the first light source array (or second light source array). The smaller the lateral width and the greater the density, the first light source (or second light source) that is turned on once The greater the number.
三、光调制组件3. Light modulation components
在一种可能的实现方式中,光调制组件用于对第三光束进行调制,得到携带第一图像信息的第一图像光;以及对第四光束进行调制,得到携带第二图像信息的第二图像光。具体的,光调制组件可将第一图像信息加载(或称为调制)于第三光束,得到携带图像信息的第一图像光;将第二图像信息加载于第四光束得到携带图像信息的第二图像光束。其中,第三光束和第四光束可以称为光载波。可以理解的是,为了实现3D显示效果,第一图像信息和第二图像信息不同。此外,光调制组件可以高频切换第一图像信息和第二图像信息,从而可以是 使得到达观察者的左右眼的图像不同,进而实现3D显示。In a possible implementation, the light modulation component is used to modulate the third light beam to obtain a first image light carrying the first image information; and to modulate the fourth light beam to obtain a second light beam carrying the second image information. Image light. Specifically, the light modulation component can load (or modulate) the first image information into the third light beam to obtain the first image light carrying the image information; load the second image information into the fourth light beam to obtain the third light beam carrying the image information. Two image beams. The third beam and the fourth beam may be called optical carriers. It can be understood that in order to achieve a 3D display effect, the first image information and the second image information are different. In addition, the light modulation component can switch the first image information and the second image information at high frequency, so that it can be This makes the images reaching the left and right eyes of the observer different, thereby achieving 3D display.
示例性的,光调制组件例如可以是硅基液晶(liquid crystal on silicon,LCOS)显示屏、液晶显示器(liquid crystal display,LCD)、数字光处理(digital light procession,DLP)显示器、激光线扫描(laser beam scanning,LBS)显示器、有机发光二极管(organic light emitting diode,OLED)、微型发光二极管(micro light emitting diode,micro-LED)、有源矩阵有机发光二极体或主动矩阵有机发光二极体(active-matrix organic light emitting diode,AMOLED)、柔性发光二极管(flex light-emitting diode,FLED)、量子点发光二极管(quantum dot light emitting diodes,QLED)、基于字微镜器件(digital micro-mirror device,DMD)的反射式显示屏等。需要说明的是,上述给出的光调制组件仅是示例,本申请对此不作限定,其它可以对光学整形组件输出的第三光束和第四光束进行调制的组件也在本申请的保护范围。For example, the light modulation component can be a liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) display, a liquid crystal display (LCD), a digital light processing (DLP) display, a laser line scan ( laser beam scanning (LBS) display, organic light emitting diode (OLED), micro light emitting diode (micro light emitting diode, micro-LED), active matrix organic light emitting diode or active matrix organic light emitting diode (active-matrix organic light emitting diode, AMOLED), flexible light-emitting diode (FLED), quantum dot light emitting diode (QLED), digital micro-mirror device , DMD) reflective display screen, etc. It should be noted that the above-mentioned light modulation component is only an example, and this application is not limited thereto. Other components that can modulate the third light beam and the fourth light beam output by the optical shaping component are also within the protection scope of this application.
基于上述内容,如下示例性的示出了两种可能的显示屏的结构。Based on the above content, two possible display screen structures are exemplarily shown below.
如图10a所示,为本申请提供的一种显示屏的结构示意图。该显示屏可包括光源组件、光学整形组件和光调制组件。该示例中光源组件以面光源和光阀为例,打开光阀的位置可以出射面光源发射的面光束的部分光束(称为第一光束或第二光束),出射的第一光束或第二光束的发散角α。其中,光学整形组件以球面透镜阵列为例,光调制组件以LCD为例。关于光源组件、光学整形组件和光调制组件的详细介绍可参见前述内容,此处不再赘述。As shown in Figure 10a, it is a schematic structural diagram of a display screen provided by this application. The display screen may include a light source component, an optical shaping component and a light modulation component. In this example, the light source component takes a surface light source and a light valve as an example. The position of the light valve can emit part of the surface beam emitted by the surface light source (called the first beam or the second beam). The emitted first beam or the second beam The divergence angle α. Among them, the optical shaping component takes a spherical lens array as an example, and the light modulation component takes an LCD as an example. For a detailed introduction to the light source component, optical shaping component and light modulation component, please refer to the foregoing content and will not be described again here.
请参阅图10b,为本申请提供的另一种显示屏的结构示意图。该显示屏可包括光源组件、光学整形组件和光调制组件。该示例中的光源组件以设置于基板上的平面分布的光源阵列为例,光学整形组件以平面分布的非球面透镜阵列为例,光调制组件以LCD为例。关于光源组件、光学整形组件和光调制组件的详细介绍可参见前述内容,此处不再赘述。Please refer to Figure 10b, which is a schematic structural diagram of another display screen provided by this application. The display screen may include a light source component, an optical shaping component and a light modulation component. In this example, the light source component is a planarly distributed light source array disposed on the substrate as an example, the optical shaping component is a planarly distributed aspherical lens array as an example, and the light modulation component is an LCD as an example. For a detailed introduction to the light source component, optical shaping component and light modulation component, please refer to the foregoing content and will not be described again here.
基于图10b的显示屏,平面分布的非球面透镜阵列和平面分布的光源阵列,可以实现小的横向宽度的密集的光源阵列和短焦透镜阵列,从而可以减小显示模组的厚度。例如,显示模组可以压缩至毫米级。通过非球面透镜阵列可以使得边缘视场的像差较小,从而可以在较大FOV情况下降低显示模组的加工和组装的复杂度。而且,光源化的光源阵列可以实现在眼盒中多视区的划分,使观察者在眼盒的不同位置都能进行3D观看。Based on the display screen in Figure 10b, the planarly distributed aspherical lens array and the planarly distributed light source array can realize a dense light source array and a short-focus lens array with a small lateral width, thereby reducing the thickness of the display module. For example, display modules can be compressed to the millimeter level.

Referring to Figure 13 above, an aspherical lens corresponds to two first light sources and two second light sources. h is the sum of the lateral widths of the two first light sources, or h is the sum of the lateral widths of the two second light sources. Wherein, t satisfies the following imaging formula 2, and may be 10 mm, for example. It can be understood that the divergence angle of the first light beam and the divergence angle of the second light beam can be set. For example, the divergence angle of the first light source and the emission angle of the second light source can be set, or a light valve that opens the first position can be set. a first width and a second width that opens the light valve in a second position. In addition, the divergence angle of the first light beam may be the same as the divergence angle of the second light beam, or may be different, which is not limited in this application. It should be noted that the divergence angle of the first light source in the light source array is the divergence angle of the first light beam, and the divergence angle of the second light source is the divergence angle of the second light beam.
其中,f2为非球面透镜阵列的等效焦距,d为非球面透镜阵列与虚拟眼盒面之间的距离,d满足下述公式3。
d=|d3-d1|   公式3
Among them, f2 is the equivalent focal length of the aspherical lens array, d is the distance between the aspherical lens array and the virtual eyebox surface, and d satisfies the following formula 3.
d=|d3-d1| Formula 3
结合图14,W为观察者的左眼和右眼之间的眼间距,通常约为65mm,d1为实际眼盒面与反射组件之间的距离,d3为虚拟眼盒面与反射组件之间的距离。d1和d3满足下述成像公式4。
Combined with Figure 14, W is the inter-eye distance between the observer's left eye and right eye, usually about 65mm, d1 is the distance between the actual eye box surface and the reflective component, d3 is the distance between the virtual eye box surface and the reflective component distance. d1 and d3 satisfy the following imaging formula 4.
其中,f1为反射组件的等效焦距。 Among them, f1 is the equivalent focal length of the reflective component.
需要说明的是,若反射组件为平面反射元件,实际眼盒面的大小与虚拟眼盒面的大小相同,实际眼盒面与反射组件之间的距离d1和虚拟眼盒面与反射组件之间的距离d3的大小相同,且实际眼盒面与虚拟眼盒面位于平面反射元件的两侧。以平面反射元件为中心,则d1=-d3。It should be noted that if the reflective component is a planar reflective element, the size of the actual eye box surface is the same as the size of the virtual eye box surface, the distance d1 between the actual eye box surface and the reflective component and the distance d1 between the virtual eye box surface and the reflective component The distance d3 is the same, and the actual eyebox surface and the virtual eyebox surface are located on both sides of the plane reflective element.

其中,Weye为虚拟眼盒面上的虚拟眼间距,虚拟眼盒面为实际眼盒面经反射组件反射形成的虚像。Weye满足下述公式6。
Among them, W eye is the virtual eye distance on the virtual eye box surface, and the virtual eye box surface is the virtual image formed by the reflection of the actual eye box surface by the reflective component. W eye satisfies the following formula 6.
由于光源阵列中的光源的发散角都有一定的局限,当非球面透镜离光源较近时,光源发出的光能覆盖的范围很小。通过使用小节距的非球面透镜组成的非球面透镜阵列,并结合相对应的密集的光源阵列可以提高显示模组显示的图像的均匀性。Since the divergence angles of the light sources in the light source array have certain limitations, when the aspherical lens is close to the light source, the light energy emitted by the light source covers a very small range. By using an aspherical lens array composed of small-pitch aspherical lenses, combined with a corresponding dense light source array, the uniformity of the image displayed by the display module can be improved.

The processor may be a circuit with signal (or data) processing capabilities. In one implementation, the processor may be a circuit with instruction reading and execution capabilities. For example, a central processing unit (CPU), a microprocessor, a graphics processing unit (GPU) (which can be understood as a microprocessor), or a digital signal processor (DSP), etc. ; In another implementation, the processor can implement certain functions through the logical relationship of the hardware circuit, and the logical relationship of the hardware circuit is fixed or reconfigurable. For example, the processor is an application-specific integrated circuit (application-specific integrated circuit, Hardware circuits implemented by ASIC) or programmable logic device (PLD), such as field programmable gate array (FPGA). In reconfigurable hardware circuits, the processor loads the configuration file, The process of realizing hardware circuit configuration can be understood as the process of loading instructions by the processor to realize the functions of some or all of the above units. In addition, the processor can also be a hardware circuit designed for artificial intelligence, which can be understood as an ASIC, such as a neural network processing unit (neural network processing unit, NPU), tensor processing unit (TPU), deep learning Processing unit (deep learning processing unit, DPU), etc. For example, it can also be an application processor (AP), an image signal processor (ISP), or other programmable logic devices, transistor logic devices, hardware components or any combination thereof.
六、眼跟踪模组6. Eye tracking module
在一种可能的实现方式中,眼跟踪是指通过测量眼睛的注视点的位置或者眼球相对头部的运动而实现对眼球运动的跟踪。眼跟踪模组是一种能够跟踪测量眼球位置及眼球运动信息的一种设备。In one possible implementation, eye tracking refers to tracking eye movement by measuring the position of the gaze point of the eye or the movement of the eyeball relative to the head. The eye tracking module is a device that can track and measure eye position and eye movement information.
眼跟踪模组实时跟踪并输出观察者人眼的位置,并传输给控制模组,以使得控制模组控制开启对应人眼位置的第一光源或第二光源,并高速切换左眼对应第一光源的开关和右眼对应的第二光源的开关。眼跟踪模块持续监测人眼位置,当人眼位置移动时,眼跟踪模块获取新的位置信息,将位置信息传输给控制模组。The eye tracking module tracks and outputs the position of the observer's eyes in real time and transmits it to the control module, so that the control module controls to turn on the first light source or the second light source corresponding to the position of the human eye, and switches the left eye corresponding to the first light source at high speed.

When the human eye position moves, the eye tracking module obtains new position information and transmits the position information to the control module.
具体的,当显示的图像发生移动时,用户的双目视线需实时跟踪虚像的移动,眼跟踪模组具体可确定双目注视图像的辐辏深度(即双目视点)。如图16所示,示例性地示出了辐辏调节冲突的原理。辐辏调节冲突是由于人眼在观察三维(three dimensional,3D)内容时,双目的正确的晶状体聚焦深度始终固定在屏幕上,而双目辐辏则会聚在由视差定义的目标距离上,可能位于屏幕前方,也可能位于屏幕后方,由于聚焦深度与辐辏深度的不匹配造成辐辏调节冲突。Specifically, when the displayed image moves, the user's binocular vision needs to track the movement of the virtual image in real time. The eye tracking module can specifically determine the convergence depth of the binocular gaze image (i.e., binocular viewpoint). As shown in Figure 16, the principle of convergence adjustment conflict is exemplarily shown. The vergence accommodation conflict is due to the fact that when the human eye observes three-dimensional (3D) content, the correct binocular lens focus depth is always fixed on the screen, while the binocular vergence converges at the target distance defined by the parallax, which may be located In front of the screen, it may also be located behind the screen. The mismatch between the focus depth and the vergence depth causes a convergence adjustment conflict.
示例性的,眼跟踪模组例如可以包括但不限于摄像头、红外线发射器或红外线探测器等。进一步,可选的,眼跟踪模组还包括处理器。For example, the eye tracking module may include, but is not limited to, a camera, an infrared emitter or an infrared detector, etc. Further, optionally, the eye tracking module also includes a processor.

步骤1905,控制模组根据第一光源的位置信息和第二光源的位置信息生成第三控制信号。Step 1905: The control module generates a third control signal based on the position information of the first light source and the position information of the second light source.
其中,第三控制信号用于控制光调制组件切换第一图像信息和第二图像信息的频率。Wherein, the third control signal is used to control the light modulation component to switch the frequency of the first image information and the second image information.
需要说明的是,上述步骤1904与步骤1905之间没有先后顺序,可以先执行步骤1904后执行步骤1905,或者也可以是先执行步骤1905后执行步骤1904,或者也可以是步骤1904和步骤1905同步执行,即第一控制信号和第三控制信号同步生成,本申请对此不作限定。It should be noted that there is no sequence between the above steps 1904 and 1905. Step 1904 may be executed first and then step 1905, or step 1905 may be executed first and then step 1904, or step 1904 and step 1905 may be synchronized. Execution, that is, the first control signal and the third control signal are generated synchronously, which is not limited in this application.
步骤1906,控制模组向光源组件发送第一控制信号,并向光调制组件发送第三控制信号。相应的,光源组件接收来自控制模块的第一控制信号,光调制组件接收来自控制模组的第三控制信号。Step 1906: The control module sends a first control signal to the light source component and a third control signal to the light modulation component. Correspondingly, the light source component receives the first control signal from the control module, and the light modulation component receives the third control signal from the control module.
步骤1907,光源组件根据接收到的第一控制信号,在第一时段开启光源阵列中的第一光源,在第二时段开启光源阵列中的第二光源。Step 1907: The light source component turns on the first light source in the light source array during the first period and turns on the second light source in the light source array during the second period according to the received first control signal.
其中,开启的第一光源用于发射第一光束,开启的第二光源用于发射第二光束。关于第一光束和第二光束的详细介绍可参见前述相关描述,此处不再赘述。Wherein, the first light source that is turned on is used to emit a first light beam, and the second light source that is turned on is used to emit a second light beam. For detailed introduction of the first beam and the second beam, please refer to the foregoing relevant descriptions and will not be described again here.
步骤1908,光调制组件根据第三控制信号,对第三光束进行调制得到携带第一图像信息的第一图像光,以及对第四光束进行调制得到携带第二图像信息的第二图像光。Step 1908: The light modulation component modulates the third light beam according to the third control signal to obtain the first image light carrying the first image information, and modulates the fourth light beam to obtain the second image light carrying the second image information.
其中,第三控制信号包括第一图像信息和第二图像信息的切换频率。该切换频率可以根据最低要求(即人眼不可分辨出闪烁频率)和用户需求改变。进一步,可选的,第一图像信息和第二图像信息的切换频率等于第一光源的切换频率和第二光源的切换频率之和。结合上述图4,ν3=ν1+ν2,ν3表示光调制组件的切换频率,ν1表示第一光源的切换频率,ν2表示第二光源的切换频率。通常ν1=ν2,ν3=2ν1=2ν2。例如,第一光源的切换频率ν1=1/60秒,第二光源的切换频率ν2=1/60秒。可以理解的是,光学显示系统开始运作后,第一图像信息和第二图像信息的切换频率通常是固定的。Wherein, the third control signal includes the switching frequency of the first image information and the second image information. This switching frequency can be changed based on minimum requirements (i.e. the flicker frequency cannot be distinguished by the human eye) and user needs. Further, optionally, the switching frequency of the first image information and the second image information is equal to the sum of the switching frequency of the first light source and the switching frequency of the second light source. Combined with the above-mentioned Figure 4, ν3=ν1+ν2, ν3 represents the switching frequency of the light modulation component, ν1 represents the switching frequency of the first light source, and ν2 represents the switching frequency of the second light source. Usually ν1=ν2, ν3=2ν1=2ν2. For example, the switching frequency of the first light source ν1=1/60 second, and the switching frequency of the second light source ν2=1/60 second. It can be understood that after the optical display system starts to operate, the switching frequency of the first image information and the second image information is usually fixed.
进一步,结合上述图4,光调制组件切换时间与第一光源开启时间的间隔为ΔT,其中,ΔT也可以是在显示模组初始化过程中预先设置的。应理解,ΔT可以等于0,也可以不等于0,本申请对此不作限定。Furthermore, with reference to the above-mentioned Figure 4, the interval between the switching time of the light modulation component and the turning on time of the first light source is ΔT, where ΔT can also be preset during the initialization process of the display module. It should be understood that ΔT may be equal to 0 or not equal to 0, and this application does not limit this.
通过上述步骤1901至步骤1908,可以控制显示模组进行图像显示。若第一图像信息与第二图像信息相同,显示模组可以实现二维图像显示。若第一图像信息与第二图像信息不同,显示模组可以实现三维图像显示。Through the above steps 1901 to 1908, the display module can be controlled to display images. If the first image information and the second image information are the same, the display module can realize two-dimensional image display. If the first image information and the second image information are different, the display module can realize three-dimensional image display.
需要说明的是,眼跟踪模组持续监测人眼位置,眼跟踪模组持续执行上述步骤1901。当人眼位置移动时,眼跟踪模组检测到左眼和右眼的新的位置,重复执行上述步骤1902~步骤1908。当人眼位置不变动时,步骤1902中的第一控制信号不变,持续发送第一控制信号以点亮相应的第一光源或第二光源。It should be noted that the eye tracking module continues to monitor the position of the human eye, and the eye tracking module continues to perform the above step 1901. When the human eye position moves, the eye tracking module detects the new positions of the left eye and the right eye, and repeats the above steps 1902 to 1908. When the position of the human eye does not change, the first control signal in step 1902 does not change, and the first control signal continues to be sent to light the corresponding first light source or second light source.
请参阅图20a,为本申请提供的一种观察者的左眼和右眼在位置1的光路图。当眼跟踪模组检测到观察者的左眼和右眼在位置2时,基于显示模组的光路可参见图20b。Please refer to Figure 20a, which is an optical path diagram of an observer's left eye and right eye at position 1 provided by this application. When the eye tracking module detects that the observer's left eye and right eye are at position 2, the optical path based on the display module can be seen in Figure 20b.
需要说明的是,若光源组件为面光源和光阀,上述步骤1903的具体过程为:控制模组根据左眼位置信息及第三对应关系确定光阀的第一位置信息,以及根据右眼位置信息及第四对 应关系确定光阀的第二位置信息。It should be noted that if the light source component is a surface light source and a light valve, the specific process of the above step 1903 is: the control module determines the first position information of the light valve according to the left eye position information and the third corresponding relationship, and determines the first position information of the light valve according to the right eye position information. and the fourth pair The second position information of the light valve should be determined according to the relationship.
