Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of self-service optometry equipment technology, specifically to a fully automated self-service optometry silent cabin system and optometry control method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently available optometry equipment and self-service optometry devices have the following core defects: 1. Existing optometry equipment is mostly distributed and not integrated into a closed, quiet chamber, making it susceptible to external noise and light interference, resulting in unstable optometry accuracy and making it unsuitable for use in open settings such as shopping malls and communities; 2. Most optometry tables are of a fixed height, which cannot be adapted to people of different heights such as children and adults. The adaptability is extremely poor when using them by oneself, resulting in a poor user experience. 3. The core equipment such as subjective optometry, bullseye, and internal projection lacks standardized and streamlined layout, resulting in chaotic self-service operation logic. Without professional guidance, users are prone to operational errors and are unable to complete a full eye exam. 4. The lack of a complete self-service access control solution prevents the implementation of unattended management, such as one-click door opening via external QR code scanning and convenient exit via internal switches, thus hindering large-scale commercial application. The entire process of optometry operation, data display, and environmental control is not fully integrated, making it impossible to achieve truly unmanned self-service optometry. The functions are limited and cannot meet the long-term use needs of commercial scenarios. Summary of the Invention
