Display device and vehicle
[0001] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of China on December 4, 2023, with application number 202311655074.4, and priority to the Chinese patent application entitled "A Display Device and a Vehicle", all contents of which are incorporated by reference into this application. Technical Field
[0002] The present application relates to the fields of display technology and intelligent automobile driving technology, and more particularly, to a display device and a vehicle. Background Art
[0003] Cars have become an indispensable means of transportation in our daily lives. As the number of cars increases, the frequency of traffic accidents is also increasing. To improve driving safety, head-up displays (HUDs), particularly augmented reality head-up displays (AR-HUDs), have become a hot research topic.
[0004] To reduce HUD size, new HUDs that use waveguides to transmit image light have become a research focus. Waveguide HUD solutions typically require the placement of corrective elements along the waveguide's light output path to compensate for issues like image distortion caused by the windshield. However, it's worth noting that using a single corrective element can introduce additional chromatic aberration into the HUD system, also degrading image quality. Using multiple components increases the size of the HUD system and the cost.
[0005] Therefore, how to use a single element to correct the image quality degradation caused by the windshield while eliminating the chromatic aberration introduced by the single correction element is a problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0044] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0045] In order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following explanations are provided.
[0046] First, the terms "first," "second," and various numbers in the following descriptions or drawings of the embodiments of the present application are merely for convenience of description and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence, and are not intended to limit the scope of the embodiments of the present application. For example, to distinguish between different lenses, etc.
[0047] Second, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the embodiments of the present application shown below are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or are inherent to these processes, methods, products or apparatuses.
[0048] Third, in the embodiments of this application, words such as "exemplarily" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations, or descriptions. An embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" should not be construed as being preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. The use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a concrete manner to facilitate understanding.
[0049] Fourth, in the embodiment of the present application, image light refers to light carrying an image (or image information) and is used to generate an image.
[0050] Fifth, in the drawings of this application, the thickness, size, and shape of various optical components are slightly exaggerated for ease of illustration. Specifically, the shapes of the optical components shown in the drawings are provided by way of example. For example, the shapes of the curved mirrors in this application are not limited to the spherical or aspherical shapes shown in the drawings. Furthermore, the drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not drawn strictly to scale.
[0051] Sixth, unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. It should also be understood that terms (such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries) should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant technology and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly defined as such herein.
[0052] Seventh, this application relates to optical waveguides. Optical waveguides can generally be divided into two types: geometric waveguides and diffractive waveguides. Geometric waveguides mainly include array waveguides and sawtooth waveguides. Diffractive waveguides mainly include surface relief grating waveguides manufactured using photolithography technology and volumetric holographic grating waveguides manufactured using holographic interferometry technology.
[0053] Eighth, in this application, the thickness and radius of some optical components are given in a table. It should be understood that the different precision values of these values should also be within the scope of protection of this application. For example, when the optical component is a lens, and the surface radius of the lens given in the table is 29.98m, the embodiments of this application also protect the surface radius of the lens as 29.9810mm or 30mm. In addition, values near 29.98m or approximate values of 29.98m are also within the scope of protection of this application. Here, approximate refers to the use of methods such as rounding or rounding up or down.
[0054] Ninth, this application relates to focal power. In an optical system, focal power is used to measure the system's ability to converge or diverge light. An optical system with positive focal power converges light. Conversely, an optical system with negative focal power diverges light.
[0055] FIG1 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of the HUD device provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG1 , the HUD device is provided on a car. The HUD device is used to project the vehicle's status information, indication information of external objects, and navigation information into the driver's field of view through the vehicle's windshield (also referred to as a windshield). Status information includes but is not limited to information such as driving speed, mileage, fuel level, water temperature, and headlight status. Information indicating external objects includes but is not limited to safe vehicle distance, surrounding obstacles, and reversing images. Navigation information includes but is not limited to direction arrows, distance, and driving time.
[0056] Among them, the virtual images corresponding to the navigation information and the indication information of external objects can be superimposed on the real environment outside the vehicle, so that the driver can obtain the visual effects of augmented reality, such as augmented reality (AR) navigation, adaptive cruise, lane departure warning, etc. Since the virtual image corresponding to the navigation information can be combined with the real scene, the HUD device is usually coordinated with the advanced driving assistant system (ADAS) system of the car. In order not to interfere with the road conditions, the virtual image corresponding to the instrument information is usually about 2 to 3 meters away from the human eye. In order to better integrate the virtual image corresponding to the navigation information with the real road surface, the virtual image corresponding to the navigation information is generally about 7 to 15 meters away from the human eye. Among them, the position where the virtual image of the navigation information is located is called the far focal plane, and the plane where the virtual image of the instrument information is located is called the near focal plane.
[0057] Currently, research on HUDs focuses on reducing device size. One effective approach to reducing HUD size is to use optical waveguides as the medium for image light transmission. In this approach, image light enters the waveguide through its incoupling region and then exits through its outcoupling region in a parallel direction through total internal reflection. It then passes through the windshield and enters the human eye, resulting in a virtual image. In this approach, the waveguide only transmits the image light and generally does not perform any "work" on the image itself (such as magnification or reduction). This can be understood as "parallel light in, parallel light out." However, due to the varying curvature of the windshield at different locations, the direction and / or angle of the image light reflected into the eye change, making it no longer parallel, resulting in poor image quality. Therefore, in optical waveguide HUD systems, a corrective element is also required above the waveguide outcoupling region to compensate for image quality degradation caused by the windshield. However, a single corrective element introduces additional systemic chromatic aberration to the HUD system, while combining corrective elements increases the size of the HUD device.
[0058] In view of this, the present application proposes a display device that can compensate for the chromatic aberration introduced by the correction element for correcting the curvature of the windshield, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the imaging quality and realizing the effect of enhancing the user experience.
[0059] FIG2 is a schematic structural diagram of a display device 200 provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG2 , the display device 200 includes a projection module 201, a waveguide coupling module 202, an optical waveguide 203, and a windshield correction element 204. The projection module 201 is configured to project image light onto the waveguide coupling module 202. The waveguide coupling module 202 is configured to couple the image light from the projection module 201 into the optical waveguide 203 and to compensate for the chromatic aberration of the windshield correction element 204. The optical waveguide 203 is configured to transmit the image light from the waveguide coupling module 202 to the windshield correction element 204. The windshield correction element 204 is configured to adjust the transmission angle and / or transmission direction of the image light from the optical waveguide and to transmit the adjusted image light toward the windshield.
[0060] It is understood that the image light emitted by the optical waveguide 203 is approximately parallel light. Therefore, when the display device 200 does not include the windshield correction element 204, the approximately parallel light emitted by the optical waveguide 203 is no longer approximately parallel light after being reflected by the windshield, which has a varying curvature. This causes distortion and other degradation of the image perceived by the human eye. Therefore, to eliminate the deterioration of image quality caused by the windshield, the windshield correction element 204 is positioned in front of the windshield. This deflects the image light by adjusting its propagation angle and / or direction. When the deflected image light is deflected again by the windshield, the emitted light becomes approximately parallel light, thus eliminating the impact of the windshield on image quality. It should be noted that the deflection effect of the windshield corrective element 204 and the windshield on the image light can be measured by different parameters, such as the focal length of the windshield corrective element 204 or the windshield itself, the refractive index, the distance between the windshield corrective element 204 and the windshield, the respective optical focal lengths of the windshield corrective element 204 and the windshield, and the optical focal length of the combined system composed of the windshield corrective element 204 and the windshield. In the present application, the optical focal length is used as an example to illustrate the parameter for measuring the correction effect. Specifically, in the present application, the optical focal length of the combined system of the windshield corrective element 204 and the windshield is designed to be approximately 0, so as to reflect the correction effect of the windshield corrective element 204 on the windshield. Optionally, the optical focal length Φ1 of the windshield and the optical focal length Φ2 of the windshield corrective element satisfy: -0.5m -1 ≤(Φ1+Φ2)≤0.5m -1 .
[0061] It should be noted that the image light incident on the windshield corrective element 204 contains light of different wavelengths. When these multiple wavelengths of light pass through the windshield corrective element 204, the windshield corrective element 204 deflects the light of different wavelengths differently, causing the different wavelengths to be unable to focus on the same plane. In severe cases, this can cause color fringing in the generated displayed image, affecting the user's viewing experience. Therefore, the present application compensates for the chromatic dispersion of the windshield corrective element 204 through the waveguide coupling module 202. Specifically, in the present application, the chromatic aberration of the waveguide coupling module 202 is designed so that the chromatic aberration value of the waveguide coupling module 202 is close to the chromatic aberration value of the windshield corrective element 204, but in opposite directions. This ensures that the chromatic aberration of the combined system formed by the waveguide coupling module 202 and the windshield corrective element 204 is close to zero, thereby achieving chromatic aberration compensation. Optionally, when using C light and F light to represent the chromatic aberration value, in the display device 200 provided by the present application, the chromatic aberration value Δθ of the windshield corrective element 204 is CF1 and the color difference Δθ of the waveguide coupling module 202 CF2 The following relationship is satisfied: -3mrad≤(Δθ CF1 +Δθ CF2 )≤3mrad.
[0062] Where Δθ CF1 The angle deviation between the C light and the F light corresponding to the windshield correction element 204 at the maximum viewing angle θ is Δθ. CF2 represents the angular deviation between the C light and the F light corresponding to the waveguide coupling module 202 at the maximum field of view angle θ. The wavelength of the C light is 656nm, and the wavelength of the F light is 486nm. mrad is the unit of measurement, and Δθ CF1 and Δθ CF2 The signs are opposite.
[0063] Generally speaking, the chromatic aberration of the windshield correction element 204 is within a certain range. Therefore, in the present application, the chromatic aberration value of the waveguide coupling module 202 can be designed to compensate for the median value of the chromatic aberration of the windshield correction element 204. Therefore, when the display device of the present application is applied to different vehicle models, customized development for each vehicle model is not necessary, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing development costs.
[0064] It should be noted that the present application does not limit the type and quantity of optical elements in the waveguide coupling module 202. For example, the waveguide coupling module 202 can be composed of multiple lenses, or composed of at least one lens and at least one reflector, or composed of at least one lens and a grating, or composed of at least one lens, at least one reflector and a grating, etc.
[0065] In addition, in order not to increase the volume of the display device 200, in the present application, the windshield correction element 204 is a single non-combined element. For example, the windshield correction element 204 can be a transmission diffraction grating, a free-form mirror, a Fresnel lens, etc., which is not limited in the present application.
[0066] It should also be noted that the present application does not limit the type of optical waveguide 203. It can be a geometric optical waveguide, such as a sawtooth optical waveguide and an array optical waveguide, or a diffraction optical waveguide, such as a surface relief optical waveguide and a volume holographic optical waveguide (also referred to as a volume holographic optical waveguide). It is understandable that the above examples are only common optical waveguides currently available. Other new optical waveguides resulting from future technological developments may also be applicable to the solutions of the present application. Optionally, the material of the optical waveguide 203 is inorganic optical glass, such as borosilicate glass BK7. Alternatively, the material of the optical waveguide 203 is thermoplastic plastic, such as polypropylene (PP), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polycarbonate (PC), etc., which is not limited in the present application.
[0067] In the embodiment of the present application, the projection module 201 can adopt a liquid crystal on silicon (Liquid Crystal On Silicon, LCoS) display, an organic light-emitting diode (Organic Light-Emitting Diode, OLED) display, a liquid crystal display (Liquid Crystal Display, LCD), a digital light processing (Digital Light Procession, DLP) display, a micro-electromechanical system (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems, MEMS) display, an organic light-emitting diode (organic light-emitting diode, OLED) display, a micro light-emitting diode (Micro-LED) display, a display using mini LED display technology, etc., and this application does not limit it.
[0068] As an example, Figure 3 illustrates a possible structure of a projection module 201 provided in an embodiment of the present application. Projection module 201 includes a light source 311, a modulation module 312, and a projection device 313. Depending on the display technology employed by projection module 201, modulation module 312 can be an LCoS modulator, a DMD, or a transmissive spatial light modulator (LCD). For example, when modulation module 312 is an LCoS modulator, light source 311 can be a red, green, or blue light emitting diode (LED) light source, which together with the LCoS modulator forms an LCoS display. When modulation module 312 is a DMD, it can be a MEMS-controlled DMD modulator, combined with a laser or LED light source to form a DLP display. Alternatively, when modulation module 312 is an LCD modulator, light source 311 can be a linear light source composed of red, green, and blue cold cathode fluorescent tubes, which together with the LCD modulator form an LCD display. Projection device 313 can be a projection lens.
[0069] Optionally, to improve projection quality and / or reduce the volume of the projection module 201, in some embodiments, the projection module 201 further includes a refraction module 314, or the projection module 201 further includes a polarization conversion module 314. When the projection module 201 includes the refraction module 314, the refraction module 314 can be one or more lenses (for focusing the energy of the light beam to ensure the energy of the light beam, or for diffusing the light spot to increase the projection field of view), and / or one or more prisms (for folding the light path to reduce the volume of the projection module), etc., and this application does not limit this. When the projection module 201 includes the polarization conversion module 314, the polarization conversion module 314 is used to change the polarization state of the image light.
[0070] As an example, FIG4 shows a possible structure of a projection module 201 in which the modulation module 312 provided in an embodiment of the present application is a DMD. As shown in FIG4 , the light source 311 includes a first monochromatic light array 411, a second monochromatic light array 412, a third monochromatic light array 413, dichroic filters 421 and 422, and a lens group 430. The refractive module 314 is a prism. Among them, the three monochromatic light arrays can respectively correspond to monochromatic light of the three primary colors, including red light, blue light, and green light. In order to improve the utilization rate of light energy, in some embodiments, a collimating lens can be further arranged after the monochromatic light array, such as the collimating lens 4111, the collimating lens 4112, and the collimating lens 4113 in FIG4 . Specifically, when the projection module 201 is working, the first monochromatic light array 411, the second monochromatic light array 412, and the third monochromatic light array 413 respectively emit corresponding monochromatic lights. The three monochromatic lights pass through the dichroic filters 421 and 422 and are incident on the lens group 430. After being emitted from the lens group 430, they are incident on the DMD through the prism. The DMD modulates the input light beam based on the data information of the input image and outputs image light. The image light is incident on the projection device 313 after transmitting through the prism, and then passes through the projection device 313 to emit the image light to the waveguide coupling module 202.
[0071] It is understood that when the display device 200 functions as a HUD display device, it also includes a housing for protecting the projection module 201, waveguide coupling module 202, optical waveguide 203, and windshield correction element 204. The housing can be made of plastic, metal, or a combination of plastic and metal. Furthermore, the display device 200 also includes a dust cover. In one embodiment, the windshield correction element 204 also serves as a dust cover for the display device 200. In this case, the dimensions of the windshield correction element 204 are comparable to those of the dust cover reserved on the housing. In another embodiment, the windshield correction element 204 can be fixed integrally with the dust cover, for example, by affixing the windshield correction element 204 to the dust cover using transparent optical adhesive.
[0072] It can also be understood that the display device provided in the embodiment of the present application can be installed in an instrument panel (IP) of a vehicle.
[0073] Based on the description of Figure 2 above, the following, in combination with Figures 5 to 8, respectively illustrate specific embodiments of the optical imaging system 50 composed of the first display device 500, the optical imaging system 60 composed of the second display device 600, the optical imaging system 70 composed of the third display device 700, and the optical imaging system 80 composed of the fourth display device 800 provided in the embodiments of the present application.
[0074] FIG5 is a schematic diagram of the structure of an optical imaging system 50 comprising a first display device 500 according to an embodiment of the present application. Specifically, the optical imaging system 50 includes a display device 500 and a windshield 510. The display device 500 includes a projection module 501, a waveguide coupling module 502, a surface relief optical waveguide 503, and a windshield correction lens 504. The surface type of the windshield correction lens 504 is an extended polynomial. The waveguide coupling module 502 includes a first lens 521, a second lens 522, a third lens 523, a fourth lens 524, and a fifth lens 525, arranged in sequence along the transmission direction of the image light. The second lens 522 is a doublet.
[0075] Specifically, when the optical imaging system 50 is working, the projection module 501 emits image light to the waveguide coupling module 502. After the image light is transmitted through the first lens 521, the second lens 522, the third lens 523, the fourth lens 524 and the fifth lens 525 in sequence, it is coupled into the surface relief optical waveguide 503 from the coupling area of the surface relief optical waveguide 503. After being transmitted in the surface relief optical waveguide 503, it is emitted from the coupling area of the surface relief optical waveguide 503 to the windshield correction lens 504, and then transmitted to the surface of the windshield 510, and is reflected by the windshield 510 into the human eye.
[0076] For example, Table 1 shows relevant optical data of the windshield correction lens 504 .
[0077] Table 1
[0078] For example, Table 2 shows relevant optical data of the waveguide incoupling module 502 .
[0079] Table 2
[0080] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the absolute value of the curvature radius R represents the size of the curvature radius of the corresponding surface, and the positive and negative signs indicate the bending direction of the corresponding surface. When the center of the sphere corresponding to the curvature radius is located on the left side of the vertex of the sphere, the sign of the curvature radius of the sphere is negative; when the center of the sphere corresponding to the curvature radius is located on the right side of the vertex of the sphere, the sign of the curvature radius of the sphere is positive.
