Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing augmented reality head-mounted devices are heavy and limit the viewing angle due to integrated near-eye display technology, which dampens the user experience.
Innovation Solution
An augmented reality system with a head-mounted sensor assembly, computing device, and display module, where the display module is positioned far from the sensor assembly, allowing for customized multi-channel interaction and adjustable augmented reality windows based on user posture and focus, using sensors like cameras, microphones, and eye movement tracking to generate and modify AR content in real-time.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If near-eye display technology is integrated into the head-mounted device, then the AR display function is achieved, but the weight of the head-mounted device increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the display module from the head-mounted device, positioning it at a distance from the user's head. The head-mounted device retains only the sensor assembly for capturing interaction information, while the display module is placed separately to avoid adding weight to the head-mounted device, thus resolving the contradiction between achieving AR display function and minimizing device weight.
2Reliability
If near-eye display technology is used, then the AR content can be displayed close to the user's eye, but the viewing angle is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The display module is extracted from the head-mounted device and positioned at a distance, allowing users to view AR content from multiple angles without the constraints of near-eye display optics. This separation enables a wider viewing angle while maintaining the capability to display AR content, resolving the contradiction between display capability and viewing flexibility.
3Volume of moving object
If the display module is integrated into the head-mounted device, then the structure is compact, but the device complexity and weight increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system is segmented into distinct functional modules: the head-mounted sensor assembly for capturing interaction information and the separate display module for presenting AR content. This segmentation reduces the complexity of the head-mounted device by removing the display components, while the overall system remains organized and manageable through clear functional separation.
Solution Approach 2:
The display module is extracted from the head-mounted device structure, leaving the head-mounted portion to contain only the sensor assembly. This extraction simplifies the head-mounted device structure and reduces its weight, while the display module operates independently at a distance to provide AR content display functionality.
