Specifically, incident light from a light source is split into first polarized light and second polarized light by a beam splitting component, and then transmitted to the waveguide lens in a light transmission direction through a reflective driver. The light is then transmitted to the user's eyes in a direction that is consistent with the light transmission direction of the reflective driver. This allows the use of a single light source to meet the visual display requirements of both eyes, effectively avoiding the high power consumption of the smart glasses caused by traditional dual-optical module configurations, and significantly reducing the power consumption of the smart glasses. Subsequently, the image detection module compares the projected optical image coupled out of the waveguide lens to the user's eyes based on the light transmission direction with a preset standard optical image, thereby accurately determining the optical state of the smart glasses. Upon detecting a variation in optical performance due to physical impact (e.g., a visual defect such as a dark band), that is, when the optical state of the glasses is abnormal, the reflective driver is immediately triggered to automatically adjust the light transmission direction from the reflective driver to the waveguide lens. This allows the projected optical image coupled out of the waveguide lens based on the adjusted light transmission direction to quickly return to consistency with the standard optical image, thereby avoiding the dark band phenomenon in the image of the smart glasses caused by physical impact, significantly improving the optical performance of the smart glasses when subjected to physical impact, and thereby effectively ensuring the wearer's visual experience.

The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all embodiments consistent with this application.
[0057] In the field of XR (eXtended Reality) technology, smart glasses, as a key enabler of XR technology, are categorized by their design and functionality. Smart glasses are primarily categorized into two types: split-body and integrated. Split-body smart glasses effectively address power supply issues by separating functional modules like the power supply and driver from the main body of the glasses. However, the resulting dragging of wires significantly reduces wearing convenience and comfort, failing to meet users' high demands for portable wear. In contrast, integrated smart glasses integrate functional modules with the main body of the glasses, successfully eliminating the dragging of wires. However, the dual-optical module consumes significant power and requires a large-capacity battery. This increases the weight of the glasses, placing a heavier burden on the wearer's head and severely impacting the wearing experience. Furthermore, during daily wear, smart glasses are inevitably exposed to the risk of physical impact, such as drops or external pressure, which can cause displacement, deformation, or damage to the optical components within the glasses. This can lead to variations in optical performance, such as visual defects like dark bands, which severely disrupt the wearer's visual experience.
[0058] In order to solve the technical defects of the above-mentioned traditional smart glasses, the present application provides a smart glasses and its image detection method, as well as an extended reality device.
[0059] The present application embodiment provides a smart glasses, referring to Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the optical principle of the smart glasses involved in the first embodiment of the present application. The smart glasses include a waveguide lens 100, an optical engine module 200, and an image detection module 300. The optical engine module 200 includes a light source 10, a spectrometer component 20, and a reflective driver 30.
[0060] The incident light from the light source 10 is split into a first polarized light S and a second polarized light P by the light splitting component 20 , and then passes through the reflective driving component 30 to the light transmission direction of the waveguide lens 100 and is incident on the user's eyes.
[0061] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 1 After the spectroscopic component 20 splits the incident light (i.e., non-polarized light) from the light source 10 into the first polarized light S and the second polarized light P, the first polarized light S and the second polarized light P pass through the reflective driving component 30 to the light transmission direction of the waveguide lens 100 and are incident on the user's eyes, thereby achieving the goal of using only one light source 10 to meet the visual display needs of both eyes, avoiding the technical problem of high power consumption of smart glasses caused by the traditional dual-light machine module 200 configuration, that is, the present application significantly reduces the power consumption of smart glasses by splitting the single light source 10 through the spectroscopic component 20, thereby reducing the dependence on large-capacity batteries, further reducing the overall weight of the smart glasses, and thus significantly improving the user's wearing experience.
[0062] It should be noted that the light source 10 includes but is not limited to LED (Light Emitting Diode) lamps, and the incident light of the light source 10 can be understood as non-polarized light from the light source 10; the first polarized light S can be understood as S-polarized light, which refers to polarized light in which the electric field vibration direction is perpendicular to the light propagation direction of the incident light; the second polarized light P can be understood as P-polarized light, which refers to polarized light in which the electric field vibration direction is the same as the light propagation direction of the incident light.
[0063] Smart glasses can be understood as XR glasses, which can be a glasses structure that combines one or more of the following technologies: AR (Augmented Reality) technology, VR (Virtual Reality) technology, and MR (Mixed Reality) technology.
[0064] The image detection module 300 is configured to obtain a projected optical image coupled out by the waveguide lens 100 to the user's eyes based on the light transmission direction, determine the optical state of the glasses based on the projected optical image and a preset standard optical image, and enable the reflective driver 30 to adjust the light transmission direction based on the abnormal optical state of the glasses until the projected optical image coupled out by the waveguide lens 100 based on the adjusted light transmission direction is adjusted to be consistent with the standard optical image.
[0065] In this embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 2 , the reflection driving member 30 includes Figure 2The light reflector 31 shown is used to project first polarized light S and second polarized light P onto the light reflector 31. When the light is coupled from the light reflector 31 to the waveguide lens 100 and out to the user's eyes, the image detection module 300 captures the projected optical image coupled from the waveguide lens 100 to the user's eyes in real time. The projected optical image is then compared and analyzed with a preset standard optical image, thereby accurately assessing the current optical state of the smart glasses (i.e., the optical state of the glasses). Once the optical state of the glasses is determined to be abnormal, the reflective driver 30 is immediately triggered to move the position of the light reflective mirror surface in the light reflector 31 to dynamically adjust the light transmission direction from the light reflector 31 to the waveguide lens 100 until the projected optical image coupled from the waveguide lens 100 based on the adjusted light transmission direction quickly returns to consistency with the standard optical image, thereby ensuring that the smart glasses continue to provide a high-quality, defect-free visual experience, significantly enhancing the user's wearing comfort and satisfaction.
[0066] It should be noted that the preset standard optical image can be understood as a cross-shaped image constructed according to a preset standard template. Figure 3 (a) shows a standard optical image. The light reflecting mirror surface of the light reflecting member 31 can be understood as the left reflecting surface of the light reflecting member 31 and the right reflecting surface of the light reflecting member 31.
[0067] The projected optical image includes a left field of view image and a right field of view image, wherein the left field of view image can be understood as a polarized optical image of the first polarized light S passing through the left reflective surface of the light reflector 31 to the light transmission direction of the waveguide lens 100 and coupled out to the user's left eye; the right field of view image can be understood as a polarized optical image of the first polarized light S passing through the right reflective surface of the light reflector 31 to the light transmission direction of the waveguide lens 100 and coupled out to the user's right eye.
[0068] In a specific embodiment, the left / right field of view images formed by the waveguide lens 100 are coupled to the image detection module 300; at this time, after receiving the left / right field of view images coupled out by the waveguide lens 100, the image detection module 300 determines the image center position and the image edge four corner positions corresponding to the cross standard template, and constructs the left / right field of view images with the image center position and the image edge four corner positions. Figure 3(b) shows the left / right cross template image; next, it is determined whether the left / right cross template image completely coincides with the standard optical image; if the left / right cross template image completely coincides with the standard optical image, the optical state of the glasses is determined to be a normal optical state; if the left / right cross template image does not completely coincide with the standard optical image, the optical state of the glasses is determined to be an abnormal optical state, and in response to the optical state of the glasses being the abnormal optical state, the reflection driving member 30 is triggered to move the left / right reflection surface of the light reflecting member 31 to dynamically adjust the light transmission direction of the left / right reflection surface of the light reflecting member 31 to the waveguide lens 100, thereby dynamically adjusting the left / right field of view images coupled out by the waveguide lens 100 until the left / right field of view images coupled out by the waveguide lens 100 based on the adjusted light transmission direction (i.e., the adjusted left / right field of view images) completely coincide with the standard optical image, thereby ensuring that the smart glasses continue to provide a high-quality, defect-free visual experience, avoiding the image dark band phenomenon caused by physical impact on the smart glasses, and significantly enhancing the wearer's visual experience.
[0069] Further, in some feasible embodiments, referring to Figure 4 , Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the optical reflector involved in the embodiment of the present application. The reflective driving component 30 includes a light reflecting component 31, which is a mirror-symmetrical left reflecting module 310-L and a right reflecting module 310-R. The light reflecting surface of the left reflecting module 310-L is set toward the splitting surface of the splitting component 20, and the light reflecting surface of the right reflecting module 310-R is set toward the total reflection surface of the splitting component 20. The total reflection surface is opposite to the splitting surface. A polarizing splitting film PBS1 is attached to the splitting surface, and an anti-reflection film is coated on the total reflection surface. The light reflecting component 31 is configured to project the first polarized light S projected by the splitting surface to the left eye area of the waveguide lens 100 through the light reflecting surface of the left reflecting module 310-L, and project the second polarized light P projected by the splitting surface to the right eye area of the waveguide lens 100 through the light reflecting surface of the right reflecting module 310-R. Among them, the light reflecting surface of the left reflecting module 310-L constitutes the left reflecting surface of the light reflecting component 31, and the light reflecting surface of the right reflecting module 310-R constitutes the right reflecting surface of the light reflecting component 31.
[0070] In this embodiment, the light reflecting member 31 integrates a mirror-symmetrical left reflecting module 310-L and a right reflecting module 310-R. The light reflecting surface of the left reflecting module 310-L is arranged toward the splitting surface of the splitting component 20. After the splitting component 20 splits the incident light of the single light source 10 into the first polarized light S and the second polarized light P, the light reflecting surface of the left reflecting module 310-L accurately guides the first polarized light S reflected by the polarization splitting film PBS1 on the splitting surface to the left eye area of the waveguide lens 100; the right reflecting module 310-R is arranged to face the splitting surface of the waveguide lens 100. The light reflecting surface of block 310-R is set toward the opposite side of the splitting surface (i.e., the total reflection surface of the splitting component 20), so that the second polarized light P passes through the polarization splitting film PBS1 on the splitting surface and is projected onto the total reflection surface. The reflection efficiency of the second polarized light P reflected to the light reflecting surface of the right reflection module 310-R is improved by the anti-reflection film coated on the total reflection surface. After that, the second polarized light P reflected by the total reflection surface can be accurately guided to the right eye area of the waveguide lens 100 through the light reflecting surface of the right reflection module 310-R.
[0071] It should be noted that the polarizing beam splitter film PBS1 is a PBS (Polarizing Beam Splitter) film. That is, when non-polarized light is incident on the PBS film, the incident non-polarized light is split by the PBS film into two perpendicular beams of first polarized light S (i.e., S-polarized light, also called S-state polarized light) and second polarized light P (i.e., P-polarized light, also called P-state polarized light). The first polarized light S is reflected by the PBS film, and the second polarized light P passes through the PBS film.
[0072] The waveguide lens 100 may be Figure 4 As shown in the entire waveguide lens, the left eye area of the waveguide lens 100 includes a left coupling area 11 and a left coupling area 13, and the right eye area of the waveguide lens 100 includes a right coupling area 12 and a right coupling area 14; the waveguide lens 100 is also provided with an image detection area 15 for coupling out the projected optical head image to the image detection module 300.
[0073] In a specific embodiment, referring to Figure 5 , Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram of the glasses stand 400 involved in the first embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 The left light hole 41 on the glasses holder 400 is arranged toward the left coupling area 11. Figure 5 The right light hole 42 on the glasses holder 400 is arranged toward the right coupling area 12. Figure 5 The image detection hole 43 on the glasses bracket 400 shown is set toward the image detection area 15. In addition, hinge holes 45 are provided on the left and right sides of the glasses bracket 400. The hinge holes 45 are hingedly connected to the left and right temples 700 of the smart glasses through the temple 700 pins 46. The glasses bracket 400 is also provided with a nose pad 600 hole 44 for snap-fitting the nose pad 600 of the smart glasses.
[0074] Furthermore, in some other feasible embodiments, referring to Figure 2 The left reflection module 310-L and the right reflection module 310-R are both the same light reflection module 310, and the light reflection module 310 includes a reflector Q1, a reflector base Q2, a fixed plate Q4 and a reflection drive unit Q3; the reflector Q1 is fixedly connected to the reflector base Q2, and a reflection drive unit Q3 is provided on the side of the reflector base Q2 that is not fixedly connected to the reflector Q1, and the side of the reflection drive unit Q3 away from the reflector base Q2 is provided on the fixed plate Q4; wherein, the side of the reflector Q1 in the left reflection module 310-L away from the reflector base Q2 constitutes the light reflection surface of the left reflection module 310-L; the side of the reflector Q1 in the right reflection module 310-R away from the reflector base Q2 constitutes the light reflection surface of the right reflection module 310-R.
[0075] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 2 The light reflection module 310 (i.e., the left reflection module 310-LL or the right reflection module 310-RR) includes a reflector Q1, a reflector base Q2, a fixing plate Q4, and a reflector drive unit Q3. The reflector Q1 is fixedly connected to the reflector base Q2. The reflector drive unit Q3 is provided on the side of the reflector base Q2 that is not fixedly connected to the reflector Q1.

Specifically, the reflector drive unit Q3 can be Figure 2 The three driving hinges shown are respectively fixed on the side of the reflector base Q2 away from the reflector Q1, and the sides of the three driving hinges that are not fixedly connected to the reflector base Q2 are hingedly connected to the fixed plate Q4; alternatively, the reflection driving unit Q3 may have two driving hinges and one fixed part, and the two driving hinges are fixed on the side of the reflector base Q2 away from the reflector Q1, and the sides of the two driving hinges that are not fixedly connected to the reflector base Q2 are hingedly connected to the fixed plate Q4, and the fixed part fixedly connects the reflector base Q2 and the fixed plate Q4.
[0076] It should be noted that the drive hinge includes a telescopic shaft, a spherical hinge, and a drive housing on which the spherical hinge is provided.

[0091] In another embodiment, referring to Figure 10 Combined with Figure 8In the right PBS component shown in (b), the second polarized light P is reflected by the polarization splitting film PBS1 attached to the splitting surface of the splitting prism to the light reflecting surface of the right reflecting module 310-R (i.e., the right reflecting surface of the light reflecting element 31). After secondary reflection by the right reflecting surface of the light reflecting element 31, it enters the right relay lens 51 for convergence.

[0096] Furthermore, based on the first embodiment of the smart glasses of the present application, a second embodiment of the image detection method of the smart glasses of the present application is proposed, referring to Figure 13 , Figure 13 This is a flow chart of the second embodiment of the image detection method for smart glasses of the present application.
[0097] The image detection method for the smart glasses of the present application is applied to any of the above-mentioned smart glasses, and the image detection method for the smart glasses of the present application includes the following implementation steps S10 to S20.
[0098] Step S10: When it is determined that the first polarized light and the second polarized light projected by the beam splitting component pass through the reflective driving component to the waveguide lens and are incident on the user's eyes, the image detection module obtains the projected optical image coupled out of the waveguide lens to the user's eyes.
[0099] In this embodiment, after the light splitting component splits the incident light from the light source (i.e., unpolarized light) into a first polarized light and a second polarized light, the first polarized light and the second polarized light are incident on the user's eyes through the light transmission direction of the reflective driver to the waveguide lens, thereby achieving the goal of using only one light source to meet the visual display needs of both eyes, avoiding the technical problem of high power consumption of smart glasses caused by the traditional dual-light machine module configuration. That is, the present application significantly reduces the power consumption of smart glasses by splitting the single light source by the light splitting component, thereby reducing the dependence on large-capacity batteries, further reducing the overall weight of the smart glasses, and significantly improving the user's wearing experience. Next, the first polarized light and the second polarized light are projected onto the light reflecting element, and when they are coupled out to the user's eyes through the light transmission direction of the light reflecting element to the waveguide lens, the image detection module captures the projected optical image coupled out to the user's eyes by the waveguide lens in real time, thereby providing accurate and reliable projected optical images for subsequent image detection.
[0100] Step S20: enabling the reflective driver to adjust the light transmission direction according to the abnormal optical state of the glasses, until the projected optical image coupled out by the waveguide lens based on the adjusted light transmission direction is adjusted to be consistent with the standard optical image; wherein the light splitting component is configured to split the incident light from the light source into a first polarized light and a second polarized light.
[0101] In this embodiment, the projected optical image is compared and analyzed with a preset standard optical image, so that the current optical state of the smart glasses (i.e., the optical state of the glasses) can be accurately evaluated. Once the optical state of the glasses is determined to be an abnormal optical state, the reflective driving component is immediately triggered to move the position of the light reflecting mirror surface of the light reflecting component to dynamically adjust the light transmission direction of the light reflecting component to the waveguide lens until the projected optical image coupled out by the waveguide lens based on the adjusted light transmission direction is quickly restored to be consistent with the standard optical image, thereby ensuring that the smart glasses continue to provide a high-quality, defect-free visual experience, significantly enhancing the user's wearing comfort and satisfaction.
[0102] In summary, the present application provides a pair of smart glasses and an image detection method thereof, as well as an extended reality device. The smart glasses integrate a waveguide lens, an optical module and an image detection module, and by setting a splitter component and a reflective driver in the optical module of a single light source, the optical performance of the smart glasses when subjected to physical impact is effectively improved while ensuring low power consumption of the smart glasses. Specifically, incident light from a light source is split into first polarized light and second polarized light by a beam splitting component, and then transmitted to the waveguide lens in a light transmission direction through a reflective driver. The light is then transmitted to the user's eyes in a direction that is consistent with the light transmission direction of the reflective driver. This allows the use of a single light source to meet the visual display requirements of both eyes, effectively avoiding the high power consumption of the smart glasses caused by traditional dual-optical module configurations, and significantly reducing the power consumption of the smart glasses. Subsequently, the image detection module compares the projected optical image coupled out of the waveguide lens to the user's eyes based on the light transmission direction with a preset standard optical image, thereby accurately determining the optical state of the smart glasses. Upon detecting a variation in optical performance due to physical impact (e.g., a visual defect such as a dark band), that is, when the optical state of the glasses is abnormal, the reflective driver is immediately triggered to automatically adjust the light transmission direction from the reflective driver to the waveguide lens. This allows the projected optical image coupled out of the waveguide lens based on the adjusted light transmission direction to quickly return to consistency with the standard optical image, thereby avoiding the dark band phenomenon in the image of the smart glasses caused by physical impact, significantly improving the optical performance of the smart glasses when subjected to physical impact, and thereby effectively ensuring the wearer's visual experience.
