Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of optical optimization and environmental adaptation technology for smart wearable devices. Specifically, it relates to a smart luminous glasses that achieves passive insect-repellent behavior by limiting specific spectral bands and suppressing phototaxis of nocturnal insects. It is applicable to various smart glasses devices with nighttime lighting effects, display and auxiliary lighting functions. Background Technology

[0002] Existing smart glasses, AR glasses, and wearable optical devices with functions such as light emission, screen display, ambient lighting effects, and nighttime auxiliary lighting generally use broadband white light or cool-colored light sources, with the spectrum mainly concentrated in the 300nm–500nm wavelength range, including the ultraviolet, blue, and short-wavelength cool green light bands. According to the photosensitive mechanism of insect vision, the compound eye photosensitive proteins of nocturnal mosquitoes, moths, and other phototactic insects are highly sensitive to short-wavelength light in the 300nm–500nm range. This wavelength of light can strongly activate the phototactic stress response of insects, causing them to gather towards the light source.

[0003] As a close-range wearable device, smart glasses emit light at night, which can easily attract insects to gather around the wearer's head, leading to a series of problems such as biting harassment, obstructed vision, and reduced user experience. This seriously restricts the application of smart glasses in nighttime outdoor, commuting, fishing, and fieldwork scenarios.

[0004] Currently, all existing smart wearable insect repellent technologies are active intervention solutions, mainly including three categories: chemical volatilization insect repellent, ultrasonic physical insect repellent, and active insect repellent using specific light. All of these existing technologies have fundamental technical flaws: First, their technical logic is to "passively repel already gathered insects," failing to address the fundamental technical problem of "the device's own light emission inducing insect phototaxis," thus failing to eliminate the insect-attracting factor at its source. Second, active insect repellency requires the addition of independent functional modules, resulting in structural redundancy, increased power consumption, poor device lightweighting, and low wearing comfort. Third, existing optical insect repellent technologies all use narrow-band fixed-point light repellency, failing to adapt the spectrum to the product characteristics of smart glasses—omni-area light emission, planar display, and ambient lighting effects. There is currently no passive spectral anti-phototaxis technology solution in the industry specifically for the nighttime light emission system of smart glasses.

[0005] In summary, there is currently no technical solution that can achieve passive anti-phototaxis focusing in smart glasses by precisely defining the spectral band, eliminating the insect-sensitive band, and using a long-wave warm color broad spectrum. There is a clear technological gap and room for further innovation and optimization. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Purpose of the invention Addressing the fundamental deficiencies and technological gaps in existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a passive, phototactic-controlled smart luminescent glasses for preventing phototaxis in insects. This invention overcomes the technological constraints of traditional active insect repellents, abandoning external interventional insect repellent structures. By precisely defining and filtering the entire nighttime emission spectrum of the smart glasses, it utilizes the photosensitive blind spots of insects to suppress their phototactic aggregation behavior at the source of light emission. The invention does not limit the placement, structure, or emission method of the luminescent module. By defining a specific nighttime emission spectrum range, it forms a universal technology adaptation system, widely compatible with various smart glasses products possessing nighttime emission functions, exhibiting broad technological adaptability and industrial applicability. Technical solution

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A passive smart light-emitting glasses for preventing phototaxis of insects based on spectral modulation includes a glasses body, a light-emitting module, a main control module and a power module. The glasses body includes a frame, a pair of temples and optical lenses. The light-emitting module is arranged in any light-emitting area of ​​the main body of the glasses to realize the functions of nighttime light effect display, screen light emission, ambient light or auxiliary lighting of the smart glasses. The nighttime steady-state light emission spectrum of the light-emitting module is limited to a continuous warm color broad spectrum of 480nm to 650nm. The continuous warm-colored broad spectrum from 480nm to 650nm seamlessly covers the pale yellow light band, yellow light band, orange light band and warm red light band, completely cutting off and eliminating the 300nm to 500nm short wavelength spectrum that is highly sensitive to nocturnal insects, and there is no leakage of the spectrum of insect-attracting bands such as ultraviolet light and blue light. The main control module is electrically connected to the light-emitting module and the power module respectively, and is used to control the start and stop status, output brightness and dynamic light-emitting mode of the light-emitting module, so as to ensure that the smart glasses output warm color broadband light of 480nm~650nm in all low light working scenarios at night, with no sudden change in spectral composition and no sensitive band doping. The power module is embedded inside the main body of the glasses, providing a stable and continuous power supply to each functional module.

[0008] Furthermore, the light-emitting module is compatible with various light-emitting forms, including point light source light emission from the frame, strip light emission, surface light guide light emission from the lens, surface display light emission from the screen, and dynamic ambient lighting, and any one or more combinations thereof. All nighttime light-emitting scenarios are uniformly limited to a warm color broad spectrum of 480nm to 650nm.

[0009] Furthermore, the color temperature of the continuous warm color spectrum from 480nm to 650nm is stably controlled in the low color temperature range of 2000K to 3000K. This color temperature and wavelength range are within the low photosensitive response range of the compound eyes of nocturnal insects, and cannot trigger phototactic stress behavior in insects.

[0010] Furthermore, the main control module is equipped with multiple working modes, including constant light, breathing dimming, and low-power standby. In all working modes, the spectral composition remains constant, there is no switching of short wavelength bands that are sensitive to insects, and the passive anti-phototaxis performance is maintained throughout the process.

[0011] Furthermore, the optical lens is made of a warm-colored spectral selective transmission material, which only allows warm-colored broad-spectrum light of 480nm to 650nm to pass through, which can filter out short-wavelength insect-attracting light in the external environment, while ensuring the purity of the device's own emission spectrum.

[0012] The visual perception system of nocturnal phototactic insects exhibits high photosensitivity only to short-wavelength ultraviolet light, blue light, and cool green light in the 300nm–500nm range. This wavelength of light stimulates the photosensitive proteins in the insect's compound eyes, inducing positive phototactic movement and ultimately causing the insects to gather around the light-emitting device. However, the continuous long-wavelength warm-colored light in the 480nm–650nm range, containing a continuous transition spectrum of pale yellow, yellow, orange, and warm red, falls within the low-sensitivity blind zone of nocturnal insects' visual perception and cannot activate their phototactic neural reflexes, thus lacking the ability to attract insects.

[0013] The core innovative mechanism of this invention is a spectral matching passive anti-phototaxis technology. Unlike the traditional intervention-based technologies of active repellency and passive insect prevention, this technology reconstructs the spectral composition of the nighttime light emitted by smart glasses, eliminating the phototactic and insect-attracting properties of the device from the essence of the light source. It does not require any additional insect-repelling hardware and relies on the inherent characteristics of the optical spectrum to achieve a long-lasting, stable, and passive insect aggregation inhibition effect, thus fundamentally solving the industry's technical pain point of nighttime light emission and insect attraction in smart glasses. Beneficial effects

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has significant technological advancements and application advantages:

[0015] First, this invention proposes a completely new technical implementation path, breaking through the long-standing technical inertia and bias in the field that relies on active insect-repelling structures to achieve insect control. No technical solution has ever been publicly disclosed in the industry that uses a broad-spectrum warm color range of 480nm-650nm to cut off the short-wavelength bands sensitive to insects to achieve passive anti-phototaxis aggregation in smart glasses. This invention, for the first time, deeply integrates the blind zone characteristics of insect visual spectrum with the full-range nighttime luminescence system of smart glasses, completely distinguishing it from traditional chemical insect repellent, ultrasonic insect repellent, and fixed-point active light insect repellent technologies. The technical solution is unique and possesses exclusive differentiation.

[0016] Secondly, the technical solution of this invention is not a simple superposition and replacement of conventional technical means in the field. It overcomes many shortcomings of traditional technologies, such as redundant structure, high power consumption, poor adaptability, and the inability to passively repel insects. This invention innovatively adopts a lightweight design concept of source spectral reconstruction and passive adaptive insect repellency. It does not require additional insect repellent hardware modules or additional power consumption, and can be adapted to all types of luminous smart glasses. It eliminates the cause of insect attraction from the source of light emission, solves a long-standing technical problem in the industry, and has outstanding substantive features and significant technological progress.

[0017] Finally, the technical solution of this invention is mature, controllable, and highly practical, adaptable to various smart wearable products such as AR smart glasses, ambient light glasses, and night-lighting smart glasses. It features low difficulty in mass production modification, wide compatibility, and high operational stability. Through theoretical verification and real-world scenario testing, this solution can stably and repeatedly achieve the phototaxis inhibition effect on insects at night, effectively solving the problem of mosquito harassment when using smart glasses outdoors at night. Furthermore, this invention has no chemical residues, no acoustic noise, and no blue light hazard, exhibits excellent human-machine compatibility, can work stably for extended periods, and possesses extremely high industrial practicality, market promotion value, and scenario adaptability. Detailed Implementation

[0018] The technical solution of the present invention will be further explained clearly and completely below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0019] This embodiment provides a passive, phototactic-controlled smart luminescent glasses for preventing insect fascination. The glasses feature a lightweight wearable structure, adaptable to various smart glasses designs and functionalities. In this embodiment, all nighttime light sources utilize a continuous warm-colored broad-spectrum luminescent system ranging from 480nm to 650nm, seamlessly covering the entire transition band from pale yellow to warm red, completely eliminating the 300nm–500nm short-wavelength spectrum that insects are highly sensitive to, and maintaining a stable color temperature within the optimal phototactic range of 2000K–3000K.

[0020] The light-emitting module can be flexibly integrated into any location, such as the frame, temples, lens interlayer, or inner side of the lens, according to product design requirements. It supports any light emission form, including dot, strip, surface, screen display, and dynamic ambient light. The main control module maintains a constant luminous spectrum composition in all operating modes, including constant light, breathing dimming, and low-power standby, with no intrusion or leakage of insect-attracting wavelengths. The optical lenses use a proprietary spectrally selective transmission material to further purify the emitted light spectrum and isolate external insect-attracting light interference.

[0021] This embodiment requires no additional active insect-repelling hardware structure; it achieves a passive, long-lasting anti-phototaxis effect solely through precise spectral limitation. In complex outdoor scenarios at night, it effectively prevents mosquitoes and moths from gathering due to the device's light emission, completely resolving the technical drawbacks of traditional light-emitting smart glasses that attract insects at night. Simultaneously, it fully retains the original functions of the device's display, lighting, and ambient lighting effects, while also being lightweight, low-power, and highly adaptable, significantly improving product experience and scenario adaptability.
