Wearable Display Switching Device for AR VR Mode Adaptation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current wearable display devices can only support either augmented reality (AR) or virtual reality (VR) display modes, requiring users to change devices for different experiences, which degrades user experience.
Innovation Solution
A display switching device with a collector and controller that enables or disables entity information acquisition based on operation modes, allowing seamless switching between AR and VR displays by controlling the wearable display device to show AR or VR images accordingly.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a wearable display device supports only AR or VR display separately, then the device structure can be simplified and manufactured more easily, but the user experience deteriorates because users must change devices to experience different display modes
Solution Approach 1:
The wearable display device is designed to perform multiple functions by integrating both AR and VR display capabilities into a single device. The controller can switch between AR mode (using entity information from the collector) and VR mode (using virtual information), allowing one device to serve multiple purposes and eliminate the need for users to carry or switch between separate AR and VR devices
Solution Approach 2:
The device incorporates dynamic switching capability through the controller, which can dynamically change the display mode between AR and VR based on operational requirements. The collector's operation mode can be dynamically adjusted between enable and disable states, and the controller responds by switching the display content accordingly, making the system adaptable and flexible rather than static
2Reliability
If users change wearable display devices to experience different display modes, then each device can be optimized for its specific function, but user convenience and experience deteriorate due to the need to switch devices
Solution Approach 1:
The device integrates multiple display functions (AR and VR) into a single unified system, eliminating the need for users to switch between separate devices. The controller manages both AR and VR display capabilities, allowing users to experience different display modes with one device while maintaining the reliability of each function
Solution Approach 2:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where the controller monitors the collector's operation mode and automatically adjusts the display content accordingly. When the collector is enabled, the system provides AR feedback based on entity information; when disabled, it switches to VR feedback, creating a responsive system that adapts to user needs without requiring manual device changes
Data Source
AI summary
A display switching device, switching method, wearable display device and displaying method are disclosed. The display switching device includes a collector configured to operate in an enable mode for enabling a wearable display device to acquire entity information or a disable mode for disabling the wearable display device to acquire entity information, and a first controller configured to determine display switch of the wearable display device based on an operation mode of the collector. The wearable display device displays an AR image based on the entity information when the collector operates in the enable mode, and the wearable display device displays a VR image when the collector operates in the disable mode. The wearable display device includes the display switching device.
