[0002] With the development of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies, ecosystems such as Mixed Reality (MR) and Extended Reality (XR) based on VR and AR technologies are gradually being established.
[0003] Currently, the video see-through (VST) technology that integrates the virtual and real worlds mainly uses a see-through lens to capture real images of real-world objects and transmits them to a display in the form of electrical signals. The display then shows the real and virtual images of the real objects, and finally projects the images onto the human eye through an eyepiece to create a see-through fusion effect.
[0004] However, the light transmission of the two optical systems, the perspective lens and the eyepiece, differs due to different environments in which they are used, which can lead to abnormal contrast in the fused image. In addition, the peripheral light obstruction at the edge of the perspective lens can cause certain safety hazards and affect the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0042] The features, principles and other aspects of this application are described in detail below.
[0043] Figures 1A to 1C A schematic diagram of the internal structure, a front view, and a rear view of a virtual reality device according to an exemplary embodiment of this application are shown. Figures 1A to 1C As shown, the virtual reality device 100 according to an exemplary embodiment of this application may include a first optical system 110 and a second optical system 120. The first optical system 110 may be an eyepiece, and the second optical system 120 may be a perspective lens. The second optical system 120 acquires a real image of a real scene, and the formed real image is transmitted to a display 130 in the form of an electrical signal. The first optical system 110 projects the real image and virtual image on the display 130 to the human eye 200.
[0044] The first optical system 110 may include a first element group and a second element group arranged sequentially along a first optical axis from the human eye side to the display side. The first element group may have positive optical power and may include a reflective polarizing element, a first lens, a quarter-wave plate, and a second lens arranged sequentially along the first optical axis from the human eye side to the display side, or a reflective polarizing element, a first lens, a second lens, and a quarter-wave plate. The second element group may have positive or negative optical power and may include a third lens.
[0045] The second optical system 120 may include a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, and a sixth lens arranged sequentially from the object side to the image side along a second optical axis. The first lens may have negative optical power, the second lens may have positive optical power, the optical powers of the third and fourth lenses may have opposite signs, the fifth lens may have positive optical power, and the sixth lens may have negative optical power.
[0046] In an exemplary embodiment, the eye-side surface of the first lens of the first optical system 110 may be concave, and the display-side surface may be convex; the eye-side surface of the second lens of the first optical system 110 may be concave, and the display-side surface may be convex; the eye-side surface of the third lens of the first optical system 110 may be concave, and the display-side surface may be either convex or concave.

By using an aspherical lens, aberrations that occur during imaging can be eliminated as much as possible, thereby improving image quality.
[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, at least one of the first to sixth lenses of the second optical system 120 may be an aspherical lens.
[0049] In an exemplary embodiment, the virtual reality device 100 of this application can satisfy the condition 0.5 < (TDA / fA) * (TDB / fB) < 1.5, where TDA is the distance on the first optical axis from the human eye side of the first lens to the display side of the third lens in the first optical system 110, fA is the effective focal length of the first optical system 110, TDB is the distance on the second optical axis from the object side of the first lens to the image side of the sixth lens in the second optical system 120, and fB is the effective focal length of the second optical system 120.

It also helps to indirectly control the light transmission of the first optical system 110 and the second optical system 120, so that the light transmission of the two optical systems is balanced, avoiding abnormal contrast. It can better realize the image transmission and combination of the two optical systems. Furthermore, by limiting the above relationship to a reasonable range, it is beneficial to achieve a short focal length and wide angle while maintaining a small total optical length. This can enhance the ability to capture real-world objects, reduce the phenomenon of peripheral light obstruction, reduce safety hazards, and improve the user experience.

This is beneficial for reasonably allocating and connecting the field of view of the first optical system 110 and the second optical system 120 based on controlling the total optical length, which can improve the acquisition range of the real scene and the projection size of the virtual image, balance the light transmission of the two optical systems, avoid abnormal contrast, reduce the phenomenon of peripheral light occlusion, reduce safety hazards, and improve the user experience.

The smaller lens thickness in the second optical system 120 is beneficial to the miniaturization of the perspective lens, which is convenient for balancing the overall size and weight, and is suitable for the practical needs of lightweight use.

By controlling the ratio of the sum of the radii of curvature of the two surfaces of the first lens and the second lens in the first optical system 110, on the one hand, the curvature of the first lens and the second lens in the first optical system 110 is smaller, which is beneficial for the attachment of reflective polarizing elements and quarter-wave plates, increasing the feasibility of the process; on the other hand, establishing the relationship between the radii of curvature of the two lenses through the above formula is beneficial for the control of edge light effect, so as to reduce aberrations.

By controlling the ratio of the effective focal length of the first element group in the first optical system 110 to the sum of the central thicknesses of its constituent elements and the air gaps of the lenses, it is beneficial to balance the focal length and the total optical length of the first optical system 110, control the volume of the first optical system 110 while ensuring its optical performance such as the field of view, and avoid excessive volume from affecting the actual use experience.

By controlling the product of the sum of the refractive indices of the first lens and the third lens in the first optical system 110 and the F number of the first optical system 110, on the one hand, it is beneficial to control the light transmittance of the first optical system 110, ensure the brightness and height of the virtual image projection, and indirectly trace back to the display 130, which is beneficial for the selection of the display 130. On the other hand, it is beneficial to select materials with low stress for the first lens and the third lens.
[0058] In an exemplary embodiment, the virtual reality device 100 of the present application can satisfy the conditional formula 1.7 < |R5A + R6A| / fA < 3.5, where R5A is the curvature radius of the human eye side of the third lens in the first optical system 110, R6A is the curvature radius of the display side of the third lens in the first optical system 110, and fA is the effective focal length of the first optical system 110.

[0059] In an exemplary embodiment, the virtual reality device 100 of this application can satisfy the condition 0.7 < (f2B + f3B + f4B) * f234B < 2.4, where f2B is the effective focal length of the second lens in the second optical system 120, f3B is the effective focal length of the third lens in the second optical system 120, f4B is the effective focal length of the fourth lens in the second optical system 120, and f234B is the combined focal length of the second, third, and fourth lenses in the second optical system 120. By controlling the product of the sum of the effective focal lengths of the individual lenses of the second, third, and fourth lenses in the second optical system 120 and the combined focal length of the second to fourth lenses, and limiting this product to a reasonable range, it is beneficial to the reasonable allocation of the focal lengths of adjacent positive and negative lenses in the second optical system 120 and the transfer of focal lengths of adjacent element groups. This facilitates the realization of smaller focal lengths in the middle range, and, in conjunction with the negative optical power of the first and sixth lenses, it is beneficial to achieve a wide angle, increase the field of view of the second optical system 120, and expand the ability to acquire real scene information.
[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the virtual reality device 100 of this application can satisfy the condition 9.6 < |f34B| / (CT3B+T34B+CT4B<17.3), where f34B is the combined focal length of the third and fourth lenses in the second optical system 120, CT3B is the center thickness of the third lens in the second optical system 120 on the second optical axis, T34B is the air gap between the third and fourth lenses in the second optical system 120 on the second optical axis, and CT4B is the center thickness of the fourth lens in the second optical system 120 on the second optical axis. By controlling the ratio of the absolute value of the combined focal length of the third and fourth lenses in the second optical system 120 to the sum of the center thickness and air gap of the third and fourth lenses, and limiting this ratio within a reasonable range, it is beneficial to further increase the focal length while ensuring the forming strength and assembly gap of the third and fourth lenses in the second optical system 120, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the second optical system 120 and the realization of a wide angle.
[0061] In an exemplary embodiment, the virtual reality device 100 of this application can satisfy the condition 3.1 < (f1B + f6B) / (f1B - f6B) < 4.7, where f1B is the effective focal length of the first lens in the second optical system 120, and f6B2 is the effective focal length of the sixth lens in the second optical system 120. By controlling the ratio of the sum and difference of the effective focal lengths of the first and sixth lenses in the second optical system 120, it is beneficial to reasonably connect and allocate the field of view of the real scene and the field of view of the virtual image, reduce the ratio or visual conflict when the real image and the virtual image are merged, and improve the user experience.
[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, the virtual reality device 100 of the present application can satisfy the conditional formula 3.5 < tan(FOVB / 2) * (fB / EPDB) < 4, where FOVB is the maximum field of view angle of the second optical system 120, fB is the effective focal length of the second optical system 120, and EPDB is the entrance pupil diameter of the second optical system 120. By controlling the product of the maximum half field of view angle and the F number of the second optical system 120, it is beneficial to balance the field of view angle and the light passing amount of the second optical system 120. On the one hand, it avoids potential safety hazards caused by the occlusion of peripheral light in a small field of view, and on the other hand, it controls the brightness of the real image to avoid strong conflicts with the virtual image and affect the immersion feeling.
[0063] In an exemplary embodiment, the virtual reality device 100 of the present application can satisfy the conditional formula 1.0 < T12B / (T23B + T34B + T45B + T56B) < 1.4, where T12B is the air gap between the first lens and the second lens on the second optical axis in the second optical system 120, T23B is the air gap between the second lens and the third lens on the second optical axis in the second optical system 120, T34B is the air gap between the third lens and the fourth lens on the second optical axis in the second optical system 120, T45B is the air gap between the fourth lens and the fifth lens on the second optical axis in the second optical system 120, and T56B is the air gap between the fifth lens and the sixth lens on the second optical axis in the second optical system 120. By controlling the ratio of the air gap between the first lens and the second lens in the second optical system 120 to the sum of the air gaps of each lens from the second lens to the sixth lens, on the one hand, it is beneficial to ensure the basic forming conditions and assembly gaps of each lens in the second optical system 120, increasing the process feasibility, and on the other hand, it compresses and limits the optical total length of the second optical system 120, which is beneficial to the miniaturization and light weight of the second optical system 120.
[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, the first optical system 110 may further include an aperture stop, and the aperture stop may be disposed at an appropriate position of the first optical system 110. For example, the aperture stop may be located between the side of the human eye and the first element group. The aperture stop can restrict the light path and control the light intensity.
[0065] In an exemplary embodiment, the second optical system 120 may further include an aperture stop, and the aperture stop may be disposed at an appropriate position of the second optical system 120. For example, the aperture stop may be located between the first lens and the second lens in the second optical system 120.
[0066] In an exemplary embodiment, the first optical system 110 may further include a partial reflection element, and the partial reflection element may be a semi-transmissive and semi-reflective film layer plated on the side of the third lens facing the human eye or the side of the display.
[0067] In an exemplary embodiment, the second optical system 120 may further include a filter for correcting color deviation and / or a protective glass for protecting the photosensitive element located on the imaging surface.
[0068] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments are described using only two optical systems as examples. However, without departing from the technical solutions claimed in this application, the number of optical systems constituting the virtual reality device 100 may not be limited to two. For example, as Figure 1A As shown, the virtual reality device 100 includes three optical systems, namely two first optical systems 110 and one second optical system 120. If needed, the virtual reality device 100 of this application may also include four optical systems or other numbers of optical systems.
