Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a head-mounted device, and more particularly to a head-mounted device capable of automatically adjusting the optical-mechanical distance. Background Technology

[0002] Head-mounted devices are one of the new products that various technology companies have been vying to develop in recent years. The suitability and convenience of wearing them is an important aspect. Among them, each different user has a different interpapillary distance (IPD), so the device cannot be suitable for everyone. Misaligned interpupillary distance or unsuitable head-mounted displays may cause blurred images, dizziness and eye fatigue.

[0003] Head-mounted displays represent the latest trend in multimedia playback devices, primarily used in Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Mixed Reality (MR) systems. Currently, most AR products on the market do not adjust the interpupillary distance (IPD). Incorrect IPD not only affects image quality but can also cause user discomfort.

[0004] For consumers, a larger field of view (FOV) results in a stronger sense of immersion and a better experience when playing games or watching videos. The eye-box is the square area that the optical display module can effectively display at a specific distance; exceeding this area may affect the user experience. With a fixed eye relief, if the field of view (FOV) needs to be increased to increase the image size, the eye-box will shrink. When the eye-box shrinks, the area of ​​the image that the eye can clearly see also shrinks. At this point, the user's IPD needs to be more precisely aligned with the center of the eye-box for a clearer and more complete image to be viewed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention provides a head-mounted device to address the problems of the prior art, comprising a first optical engine, a second optical engine, an adjustment mechanism, a first temple, and a second temple. The adjustment mechanism is connected to and adapted to drive the first optical engine and the second optical engine. The first temple is connected to and adapted to drive the adjustment mechanism. The second temple is connected to and adapted to drive the adjustment mechanism, wherein the first temple and the second temple are adapted to rotate between a first spatial posture and a second spatial posture. When the first temple and the second temple are in the first spatial posture, a first distance exists between the first optical engine and the second optical engine; when the first temple and the second temple are in the second spatial posture, a second distance exists between the first optical engine and the second optical engine.

[0006] When using the head-mounted device of this invention, if the optical engine's eye-box is sufficient to cover the IPD (Integrated Perimeter Distance) of most users and the design value differences, and multiple people need to interact with the device in a given situation, the head-mounted device can be worn directly. The head-mounted device automatically adjusts the IPD upon wearing, optimizing operation through a temple-driven mechanism, allowing users to use it more intuitively and conveniently. Furthermore, when the user's head width and IPD exceed the normal human physiology range, or the optical engine's eye-box is too small, and temple adjustment is insufficient, this invention adds an IPD fine-tuning mechanism to address this situation. Users can use the outer ring or a knob to fine-tune the distance, improving visual comfort and immersion. Attached Figure Description
