Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of optical devices, and particularly to a virtual reality system. Background Art
[0002] For a virtual reality system, a visual system enables a user to enter a virtual world, and a positioning system captures the user's actions. When paired with the visual system, it can connect the real world and the virtual world to achieve interaction between the real world and the virtual world, thus bringing an immersive experience to the user.
[0003] The first lens and the last lens in the visual system and the positioning system are located at the edge of the lens group, which are relatively sensitive and have a crucial impact on correcting aberration and field curvature. However, the optical power or surface shape of these two lenses in the visual system and the positioning system are likely to be set unreasonably. When the optical power or surface shape of the above lenses are set unreasonably, it will cause the visual system and the positioning system to have large aberrations, and the performance of the virtual reality system will deteriorate, thus affecting the user's immersion.

[0049] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0050] The features, principles and other aspects of this application are described in detail below.
[0051] refer to Figure 1 The first aspect of this application provides a virtual reality system that may include a visual optical system and a positioning optical system. The positioning optical system is used to capture the user's body movements (e.g., a controller in the user's hand), and the resulting real image is transmitted to the visual optical system as an electrical signal. The visual optical system is used to project a virtual image onto an image surface positioned on a second side. The number of visual optical systems and the number of positioning optical systems may be one or more. In one example, the virtual reality system may include two symmetrically arranged visual optical systems. It should be understood that the virtual reality system provided in this application may also include any optical system other than the visual optical system and the positioning optical system, such as a first optical system.
[0052] The visual optical system in this application transmits virtual images from the display to the user's eyes, providing a sense of virtual immersion. The positioning optical system collects position data of the controller in the user's hands and transmits this data via a chip to the display of the visual optical system. The visual optical system then transmits the controller's position data from the display to the user, helping them determine the position of their hands on the screen. This virtual reality system combines the immersive experience of the visual optical system with the positioning function of the positioning optical system, breaking through the spatial limitations of virtual reality systems and enabling interaction between the real and virtual worlds.
[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, the visual optical system may include a first element group, a second element group, a third element group, and a fourth element group arranged sequentially along a first optical axis from a first side to a second side. The first element group may, for example, include a reflective polarizing element, a first quarter-wave plate, and a first lens. The second element group may, for example, include a second quarter-wave plate and a second lens. The third element group may, for example, include a third lens. The fourth element group may, for example, include a fourth lens. An air gap may exist between adjacent element groups from the first to the fourth element groups. In one example, the first element group may have positive optical power. The second element group may have negative optical power. The third element group may have positive optical power. The fourth element group may have positive optical power.
[0054] In an exemplary embodiment, the first side may be the human eye side, and the second side may be the display side. Accordingly, the first side of each element (first lens, second lens, third lens, fourth lens, reflective polarizing element, first quarter-wave plate, second quarter-wave plate) may be referred to as the side near the human eye, and the second side may be referred to as the side near the display.
[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, the first side surface of the first lens is configured as a plane, and a reflective polarizing element is bonded to a first quarter-wave plate to form a film layer. The bonded film layer is attached to the first side surface of the first lens, wherein the reflective polarizing element is located on the first side surface of the first quarter-wave plate. By combining the reflective polarizing element and the first quarter-wave plate to form a film layer, the number of bonding surfaces of the film layer can be reduced, improving the bonding yield of the film layer. Furthermore, the bonded film layer is attached to a plane, which helps to improve the stability of the film layer after bonding, thereby improving the performance of the visual optical system.
[0056] In an exemplary embodiment, the visual optical system may further include a partially reflective layer, which may, for example, be attached to a second side surface of the first lens. The partially reflective layer has a semi-transmissive and semi-reflective effect on light. By providing a partially reflective layer on the second side surface of the first lens, and combining it with a reflective polarizing element and a first quarter-wave plate on the first side surface of the first lens, light can be refracted multiple times, effectively reducing the overall length of the visual optical system.
[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, the visual optical system may further include an aperture stop, which may be disposed, for example, between the first side and the first lens. The image light on the display is finally projected to the user's eyes after being refracted and reflected multiple times by a fourth lens, a third lens, a second lens, a second quarter-wave plate, a first lens, a first quarter-wave plate, and a reflective polarizing element.
[0058] In an exemplary embodiment, a fifth element group may be disposed on the image surface. This fifth element group may include, for example, a display and a third quarter-wave plate, wherein the second side of the third quarter-wave plate is attached to the display. Image light from the display sequentially passes through a fourth lens, a third lens, a second lens, a second quarter-wave plate, a first lens, and a first quarter-wave plate, reaching a reflective polarizing element, where it is reflected to form first reflected image light. The first reflected image light passes through the first quarter-wave plate and the first lens, reaching a partial reflective layer, where it is reflected to form second reflected image light. The second reflected image light sequentially passes through the first lens, the first quarter-wave plate, and the reflective polarizing element to the aperture stop and is finally projected into the user's eye. The visual optical system provided in this application folds the required optical path without affecting projection quality by combining light reflection and refraction, effectively shortening the overall length of the visual optical system.
[0059] In an exemplary embodiment, the positioning optical system may include a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, and a fifth lens arranged in sequence from the object side to the image side along the second optical axis. There may be an air gap between two adjacent lenses among the first lens to the fifth lens. In one example, the first lens may have a negative optical power. The second lens may have a negative optical power. The third lens may have a positive optical power. The fourth lens may have a positive or negative optical power. The fifth lens may have a positive or negative optical power. By configuring the positioning optical system into a structure of five lenses, it is possible to enable the positioning optical system to have a relatively small total effective focal length on the basis of having a certain effective image plane, thereby ensuring that the positioning optical system has a relatively large field angle, which is convenient for helping the positioning optical system to capture the position and orientation of the handle in the user's hand.
[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the total effective focal length f' of the visual optical system, the curvature radius R2' of the second side of the first lens, and the curvature radius R8' of the second side of the fourth lens may satisfy: 1.0 mm < f' / (R2' / R8') < 5.0 mm; and the total effective focal length f of the positioning optical system, the curvature radius R2 of the image side of the first lens, and the curvature radius R10 of the image side of the fifth lens may satisfy: -6.0 mm < f / (R2 / R10) < -1.0 mm. By constraining the focal lengths and corresponding relevant curvature radii of the lenses relatively closest to the first side and the second side in the visual optical system, and the focal lengths and corresponding relevant curvature radii of the lenses relatively closest to the object side and the image side in the positioning optical system, it is beneficial to improve the aberrations of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system and enhance the performance of the virtual reality system. At the same time, the virtual immersion feeling of the visual optical system is combined with the positioning function of the positioning optical system, breaking through the space limitation of the virtual reality system and realizing the interaction between the real world and the virtual world of the virtual optical system.
[0061] In an exemplary embodiment, the total effective focal length f' of the visual optical system, the maximum field angle FOV' of the visual optical system, the total effective focal length f of the positioning optical system, and the maximum field angle FOV of the positioning optical system may satisfy: 0.5 < (f'×tan(FOV' / 2)) / (f×tan(FOV / 2)) < 2.5. For a virtual reality system, the handle information collected by the chip of the positioning optical system will be transmitted to the display of the visual optical system, and then enter the user's eyes through the visual optical system. By controlling the above conditional expression, it is possible to constrain the display size of the visual optical system and the chip size of the positioning optical system, which is beneficial to the image transmission between the positioning optical system and the visual optical system.
[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, the entrance pupil diameter EPD' of the visual optical system and the entrance pupil diameter EPD of the positioning optical system may satisfy: 6.5 < EPD' / EPD < 8.0. The entrance pupil diameter of the visual optical system needs to match the pupil diameter of the user's eye, and the entrance pupil diameter of the positioning optical system is used to increase the incident amount of ambient light. By constraining the ratio of the entrance pupil diameters of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system within a reasonable range, it is possible to ensure that the light entering the chip and the user's eye is appropriate enough, thereby ensuring the comfort of the user's eye imaging and the clarity of the chip imaging.
[0063] In an exemplary embodiment, the on-axis distance TD' from the first side surface of the first lens to the second side surface of the fourth lens and the on-axis distance TTL from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface of the positioning optical system may satisfy: 1.3 < TD' / TTL < 1.8. By controlling the above conditional expression, it is possible to ensure the miniaturization of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system and the rationalization of the focal length, which is beneficial to shortening the lengths of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system and ensuring the miniaturization and thinness of the virtual reality system.
[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, the total effective focal length f' of the visual optical system and the total effective focal length f of the positioning optical system may satisfy: 9.0 < f' / f < 13.0. The positioning optical system is an imaging system, which needs to have a smaller image plane and a larger field angle to receive ambient light in order to better locate the position of the handle in the user's hand. By constraining the ratio of the total effective focal lengths of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system within a certain range, it is possible to make the positioning optical system have a smaller focal length, indirectly ensuring that the positioning optical system has a smaller image plane and a larger field angle to better locate the position of the handle in the user's hand, which helps to improve the performance combination of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system.
[0065] In an exemplary embodiment, the sum ∑CT' of the central thicknesses of each lens of the first lens to the fourth lens on the first optical axis and the sum ∑CT of the central thicknesses of each lens of the first lens to the fifth lens on the second optical axis may satisfy: 3.0 < ∑CT' / ∑CT < 5. _. By controlling the above conditional expression, it is possible to make the structures of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system compact, which helps to achieve the miniaturization of the entire virtual reality system. At the same time, it can also reduce the length of the virtual reality system to meet the requirements of thinness.
[0066] In an exemplary embodiment, the effective focal length f3' of the third element group, the effective focal length f4' of the fourth element group, the refractive index N3' of the third lens, the refractive index N4' of the fourth lens, the central thickness CT3' of the third lens on the first optical axis, and the central thickness CT4' of the fourth lens on the first optical axis may satisfy: -2.0 < (f3' + f4') × (N3' - N4') / (CT3' + CT4') < 0. By controlling the above conditional formula, the effective focal lengths of the third element group and the fourth element group can be within a certain range, ensuring the reasonable incidence of large-angle light rays, effectively reducing the aberration of the visual optical system, and improving the imaging quality of the visual optical system; at the same time, it can also constrain the refractive indices and central thicknesses of the third lens and the fourth lens, which is beneficial to adjusting the chromatic aberration and off-axis aberration of the visual optical system, and thus ensuring that the visual optical system has a good imaging effect.
[0067] In an exemplary embodiment, the effective focal length f1' of the first element group, the refractive index N1' of the first lens, the refractive index NR of the reflective polarizing element, and the refractive index NQ1 of the first quarter-wave plate may satisfy: 10.0 mm < f1' / (NR + NQ1) + f1' / N1' < 15.0 mm. By controlling the above conditional formula, the optical power and the refractive index can be in a certain proportion, which is convenient for better constraining the effective focal length of the first element group by using the refractive index.
[0068] In an exemplary embodiment, the effective focal length f3' of the third element group, the effective focal length f4' of the fourth element group, the curvature radius R6' of the second side of the third lens, and the curvature radius R8' of the second side of the fourth lens may satisfy: -1.0 < f3' / R6' - f4' / R8' < 0. By controlling the above conditional formula, the ratio of the effective focal length of the third element group to the curvature radius of the second side of the third lens and the ratio of the effective focal length of the fourth element group to the curvature radius of the second side of the fourth lens can be constrained within a certain range, which is beneficial to reducing the sensitivity of the third lens and the fourth lens, and thus reducing the processing difficulty of the third lens and the fourth lens.
[0069] In an exemplary embodiment, the effective focal length f2' of the second element group, the effective focal length f3' of the third element group, and the total effective focal length f' of the visual optical system may satisfy: -15. < (f2' + f3') / f' < -8.0. By controlling the above conditional formula, the optical power of the visual optical system can be reasonably distributed, ensuring that the second element group and the third element group have good light bending capabilities.
[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, the air gap T23' between the second element group and the third element group on the first optical axis, the air gap T34' between the third element group and the fourth element group on the first optical axis, the dispersion coefficient V2' of the second lens, the dispersion coefficient VQ2 of the second quarter-wave plate, the dispersion coefficient V3' of the third lens, and the dispersion coefficient V4' of the fourth lens may satisfy: 1.0 mm < T23'×(V2'+VQ2) - T34'×(V3'+V4') < 2.0 mm. By controlling the above conditional expression, the dispersion coefficient of the visual optical system can be reasonably distributed, which is beneficial to improving the chromatic aberration of the visual optical system; at the same time, the air gap between the second element group and the third element group on the first optical axis and the air gap between the third element group and the fourth element group on the first optical axis can be constrained, which is beneficial to reducing the sensitivity of the visual optical system and improving the performance yield of the visual optical system.
[0071] In an exemplary embodiment, the total effective focal length f' of the visual optical system, the central thickness CT4' of the fourth lens on the first optical axis, and the air gap T4Q between the fourth element group and the fifth element group on the first optical axis may satisfy: -3.0 < f' / (CT4'+T4Q) < 7.0. By constraining the ratio of the total effective focal length of the visual optical system to the total thickness of the fourth lens and its air gap within a certain range, good processability of the fourth lens can be ensured, and a reasonable total optical length of the visual optical system can be ensured, which is beneficial to realizing miniaturization of the visual optical system.
[0072] In an exemplary embodiment, the total effective focal length f of the positioning optical system and the effective focal length f1 of the first lens may satisfy: -0.5 < f / f1 < 0. By constraining the ratio of the total effective focal length of the positioning optical system to the effective focal length of the first lens within a certain range, the optical power of the positioning optical system can be reasonably distributed, good light bending ability of the first lens can be ensured, and the imaging quality of large-angle light can be ensured.
[0073] In an exemplary embodiment, the total effective focal length f of the positioning optical system, the curvature radius R1 of the object side surface of the first lens, and the curvature radius R2 of the image side surface of the first lens may satisfy: 0 < f / (R1 - R2) < 0.5. By controlling the above conditional expression, the curvature radii of the object side surface and the image side surface of the first lens can be constrained within a certain range, which is beneficial to reducing the surface sensitivity of the first lens and the processing difficulty of the first lens.
[0074] In an exemplary embodiment, the effective focal length f3 of the third lens, the combined focal length f45 of the fourth and fifth lenses, the air gap T34 between the third and fourth lenses on the second optical axis, the dispersion coefficient V3 of the third lens, the dispersion coefficient V4 of the fourth lens, and the dispersion coefficient V5 of the fifth lens can satisfy: 0 < (f3 + f45) / (T34 × (V3 + V4 + V5)) < 4.0. By controlling the above conditional expression, the dispersion coefficients of the third, fourth, and fifth lenses can be reasonably allocated, which is beneficial for optimizing the chromatic aberration of the positioning optical system; at the same time, the effective focal length of the third lens and the combined focal length of the fourth and fifth lenses can be constrained, and the focal length of the positioning optical system can be reasonably allocated to ensure that the light has a relatively smooth incident path, thereby improving the imaging quality of the positioning optical system.
[0075] In an exemplary embodiment, the center thickness CT2 of the second lens on the second optical axis, the air gap T23 between the second and third lenses on the second optical axis, the effective focal length f2 of the second lens, and the radius of curvature R3 and R4 of the object side and image side of the second lens can satisfy: -3.0mm < (CT2 + T23) × f2 / |(R3 + R4)| < 0mm. By controlling the above conditional expression, the ratio of the total thickness of the second lens and its air gap to the sum of the radii of curvature on both sides of the second lens can be constrained within a reasonable range. This is beneficial for controlling the sensitivity of the second and third lenses and the total optical length of the positioning optical system, thereby ensuring that the positioning optical system can be miniaturized while maintaining good manufacturability.
[0076] In an exemplary embodiment, the center thickness CT4 of the fourth lens on the second optical axis, the effective focal length f4 of the fourth lens, the refractive index N4 of the fourth lens, the center thickness CT5 of the fifth lens on the second optical axis, the effective focal length f5 of the fifth lens, the refractive index N5 of the fifth lens, and the combined focal length f45 of the fourth and fifth lenses can satisfy: (CT4+CT5) / |(f4+f5)×N4+f45×N5|<1.5. By controlling the above conditional expression, the effective focal lengths of the fourth and fifth lenses can be kept within a certain range, ensuring reasonable incidence of large-angle light rays, effectively reducing aberrations in the positioning optical system, and improving the imaging quality of the positioning optical system; at the same time, it can also constrain the refractive index and center thickness of the fourth and fifth lenses, which is beneficial for adjusting the chromatic aberration and off-axis aberrations of the positioning optical system, thereby ensuring that the positioning optical system has a good imaging effect.
[0077] In an exemplary embodiment, the central thickness CT3 of the third lens on the second optical axis, the radius of curvature R5 of the object side surface of the third lens, and the radius of curvature R6 of the image side surface of the third lens may satisfy: CT3 / |R5 - R6| < 1.0. By controlling the above conditional expression, the central thickness of the third lens on the second optical axis can be constrained within a certain range, thereby ensuring that the third lens has good machinability and aberration correction ability; at the same time, the surface profiles of the object side surface and the image side surface of the third lens can also be constrained to ensure the uniformity and machinability of the third lens.
[0078] In an exemplary embodiment, the maximum field of view FOV of the positioning optical system may satisfy: FOV > 165.0°. By making the maximum field of view of the positioning optical system greater than 165.0°, it can be ensured that the environmental field of view collected by the positioning optical system is large enough, and further ensure that the positioning optical system can detect the handle in the user's hand to the maximum extent, so as to give the user sufficient feedback.
[0079] In an exemplary embodiment, the total effective focal length f of the positioning optical system, the effective focal length f2 of the second lens, and the effective focal length f3 of the third lens may satisfy: -0.5 < f / f2 + f / f3 < 0.5. By controlling the above conditional expression, the effective focal lengths of the second lens and the third lens can be constrained within a certain range, thereby reasonably balancing the light bending ability of the second lens and the third lens.
[0080] The virtual reality system according to the above embodiment of the present application is composed of a visual optical system and a positioning optical system. Among them, the visual optical system can adopt multiple lenses, such as the four lenses described above, and the positioning optical system can adopt multiple lenses, such as the five lenses described above. By reasonably configuring the parameters of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system, the virtual immersion of the visual optical system can be combined with the positioning function of the positioning optical system, breaking through the space limitation of the virtual reality system, and realizing the interaction between the real world and the virtual world of the virtual optical system. The virtual reality system configured as above has the characteristics of miniaturization, low sensitivity, and good imaging quality, and can well meet the use requirements of various portable electronic products in the projection scenario.
[0081] In an embodiment of the present application, at least one of the surfaces of each of the first lens to the fourth lens is an aspherical surface. At least one of the surfaces of each of the first lens to the fifth lens is an aspherical surface. The characteristic of an aspherical lens is that the curvature changes continuously from the center of the lens to the periphery of the lens. Different from a spherical lens with a constant curvature from the center of the lens to the periphery of the lens, an aspherical lens has better radius of curvature characteristics and has the advantages of improving distortion aberration and improving astigmatism aberration. After using an aspherical lens, it is possible to eliminate the aberration that appears during imaging as much as possible, and thus improve the imaging quality.
[0082] However, those skilled in the art should understand that, without departing from the technical solutions claimed in this application, the number of lenses constituting the visual optical system and / or the number of lenses in the positioning optical system can be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification.
[0083] refer to Figure 1 A second aspect of this application provides a virtual reality system that may include a visual optical system and a positioning optical system. The visual optical system, along a first optical axis from a first side to a second side, sequentially includes a first element group, a second element group, a third element group, and a fourth element group. The first element group includes a reflective polarizing element, a first quarter-wave plate, and a first lens with positive optical power. The second element group includes a second quarter-wave plate and a second lens. The third element group includes a third lens. The fourth element group includes a fourth lens with positive optical power. The positioning optical system, along a second optical axis from the object side to the image side, sequentially includes a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, and a fifth lens. The first lens has negative optical power, and the fifth lens has either positive or negative optical power.
[0084] The total effective focal length f' of the visual optical system, the maximum field of view (FOV) of the visual optical system, and the total effective focal length f and maximum field of view (FOV) of the positioning optical system can satisfy the following condition: 0.5 < (f' × tan(FOV' / 2)) / (f × tan(FOV / 2)) < 2.5. For a virtual reality system, the controller information collected by the chip in the positioning optical system is transmitted to the display of the visual optical system, and then enters the user's eyes through the visual optical system. By controlling the above conditional expressions, the display size of the visual optical system and the chip size of the positioning optical system can be constrained, which is beneficial for image transmission between the positioning optical system and the visual optical system.
[0085] refer to Figure 1 A third aspect of this application provides a virtual reality system that may include a visual optical system and a positioning optical system. The visual optical system, along a first optical axis from a first side to a second side, sequentially includes a first element group, a second element group, a third element group, and a fourth element group. The first element group includes a reflective polarizing element, a first quarter-wave plate, and a first lens with positive optical power. The second element group includes a second quarter-wave plate and a second lens. The third element group includes a third lens. The fourth element group includes a fourth lens with positive optical power. The positioning optical system, along a second optical axis from the object side to the image side, sequentially includes a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, and a fifth lens. The first lens has negative optical power, and the fifth lens has either positive or negative optical power.
[0086] Among them, the on-axis distance TD' from the first side surface of the first lens to the second side surface of the fourth lens and the on-axis distance TTL from the object side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface of the positioning optical system can satisfy: 1.3 < TD' / TTL < 1.8. By controlling the above conditional formula, miniaturization of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system and rationalization of the focal length can be ensured, which is beneficial to shortening the lengths of the visual optical system and the positioning optical system and ensuring miniaturization and thinness of the virtual reality system.
[0087] The following further describes specific embodiments of the visual optical system applicable to the above embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0088] Example 1

Its side near the human eye (S3) is flat, and its side near the display (S4) is convex, with a partial reflective layer (BS) attached. The reflective polarizing element RP has a side near the human eye (S1) and a side near the display. The first quarter-wave plate QWP1 has a side near the human eye (S2) and a side near the display. The side near the display of the reflective polarizing element RP is attached to the side near the human eye (S2) of the first quarter-wave plate QWP1, and the side near the display of the first quarter-wave plate QWP1 is attached to the side near the human eye (S3) of the first lens E1'. The second lens E2' has negative optical power. Its side near the human eye (S6) is flat, and its side near the display (S7) is concave. The second quarter-wave plate QWP2 has a side near the human eye (S5) and a side near the display. Its side near the display is attached to the side near the human eye (S6) of the second lens E2.

The fifth element group may include a display and a third quarter-wave plate QWP3. The third quarter-wave plate QWP3 has a near-eye side S12 and a near-display side, with its near-display side attached to the near-eye side S13 of the display. Image light from the display passes sequentially through the fourth lens E4', the third lens E3', the second lens E2', the second quarter-wave plate QWP2, the first lens E1', and the first quarter-wave plate QWP1, and reaches the reflective polarizing element RP, where it undergoes a first reflection. The light after the first reflection passes through the first quarter-wave plate QWP1 and the first lens E1', and reaches the partial reflective layer BS, where it undergoes a second reflection. The light after the second reflection passes sequentially through the first lens E1', the first quarter-wave plate QWP1, and the reflective polarizing element RP, and is finally projected onto a target object (not shown) in space. For example, the light from the visual optics system 100, after being reflected twice, is finally projected into the user's eyes.

The second quarter-wave plate QWP2 has a side near the human eye (S5) and a side near the display. Its side near the display is attached to the side near the human eye (S6) of the second lens E2. The third lens E3' has positive optical power. Its side near the human eye (S8) is concave, and its side near the display (S9) is convex. The fourth lens E4' has positive optical power, with its side S10 near the human eye being concave and its side S11 near the display screen being convex.
[0121] In this example, the second side of the visual optical system 100 may be provided with an image surface S14. The image surface S14 may, for example, be provided with a fifth element group. The fifth element group may include a display and a third quarter-wave plate QWP3. The third quarter-wave plate QWP3 has a near-eye side S12 and a near-display side, with its near-display side attached to the near-eye side S13 of the display. Image light from the display passes sequentially through the fourth lens E4', the third lens E3', the second lens E2', the second quarter-wave plate QWP2, the first lens E1', and the first quarter-wave plate QWP1, and reaches the reflective polarizing element RP, where it undergoes a first reflection. The light after the first reflection passes through the first quarter-wave plate QWP1 and the first lens E1', and reaches the partial reflective layer BS, where it undergoes a second reflection. The light after the second reflection passes sequentially through the first lens E1', the first quarter-wave plate QWP1, and the reflective polarizing element RP, and is finally projected onto a target object (not shown) in space. For example, the light from the visual optics system 100, after being reflected twice, is finally projected into the user's eyes.
[0122] Table 5 shows the basic parameters of the visual optical system in Embodiment 3, where the units for radius of curvature and thickness / distance are millimeters (mm). Image light from the display passes through each element in the order of number 20 to number 2 and is finally projected into the human eye.
