Embodiment Construction

[0017] The present disclosure discloses systems and methods to selectively project individual UI elements from a display image of a stereoscopic HMD as monocular or stereoscopic images. UI elements can be marked for rendering as a monocular image - to be projected as a single image, or as a stereoscopic image - to be projected as left and right eye images with stereo separation to create the perception of depth. Whether a UI element is marked as a monocular image or a stereoscopic image may be based on whether the UI element is characterized as a persistent element. Persistent elements present information to the user but do not require the user's attention. Persistent elements may be rendered as monocular images to allow the user to focus on other UI elements or on the real world while maintaining perception of the information presented by the persistent element. The HMD may display a monocular image to the user's dominant eye. On the other hand, non-persistent UI elements m...

Abstract

The present disclosure discloses systems and methods to selectively project individual UI elements from a display image of a stereoscopic HMD as monocular or stereoscopic images. UI elements may be tagged for rendering as a monocular image with stereo separation or as a stereoscopic image to create the perception of depth. Labeling a UI element as a monocular image or a stereoscopic image may be based on whether the UI element is a persistent element. Persistent elements present information to a user but do not require the user's attention. Persistent elements may be rendered as monocular images to allow the user to focus on other UI elements or on the real world while maintaining perception of the information presented by the persistent element. In contrast, non-persistent UI elements may require the user's attention. Non-persistent UI elements may be rendered as stereoscopic images for projection at specific depth planes to attract the user's attention.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application generally relates to image display systems. In particular, the present application relates to methods and systems for displaying images in a display system worn by a user. Background technique [0002] A see-through head-mounted display (HMD) enables the display of computer-generated images on a display medium mounted inches in front of the eyes of a user wearing the HMD. The HMD can be incorporated into a pair of glasses or a helmet worn by the user. A user can view video, receive information, and interact with the display with minimal obstruction to the user's field of view of the real world. HMDs are increasingly appearing in augmented reality devices. See-through HMDs may be monocular or stereoscopic. Monocular HMDs display a single image of the display. On the other hand, a stereoscopic HMD displays an object stereoscopically by independently projecting left-eye and right-eye images of the object to create depth percep...
