چکیده

Head-mounted projective displays (HMPD's) are a novel type of head-mounted display. A HMPD consists of a miniature projection lens mounted upon the user's head and retroreflective sheeting material placed strategically in the environment. First, the imaging concept of a HMPD is reviewed and its potential advantages and disadvantages are discussed. The design and a bench prototype implementation are then presented. Finally, the effects of retroreflective materials on the imaging properties and the optical properties of HMPD's are comprehensively investigated.

Design of Head mounted displays

This tutorial summarizes the design of head mounted displays. The HMD design is inherently an interdisciplinary subject fusing optical engineering, optical materials, manufacturing techniques, user interface design, computer science, human perception, and physiology for assessing the displays. The report focuses on the optical designs, human factors of HMD. Currently there are two types of micr...

A Polarized Head-Mounted Projective Display

The lack of image brightness is a common problem in optical see-through head-mounted displays (OST-HMD) where a beamsplitter is required to combine views from HMD image source and the direct-view of a real world scene. This problem is further aggregated in a headmounted projective display (HMPD) due to the fact that light passes through the beamsplitter multiple times. In this paper, we present...

Laser-pointer Based Interaction with Projective 3D Environments

3D immersive environments are one of the strongest ways to get people involved in computer simulated worlds. Traditional techniques for creating these environments involve bulky, expensive, specialized equipment such as head mounted displays. Projector based environments sidestep many of these issues. This paper looks into using red-cyan stereo glasses to add depth to projective environments, a...

A New Paradigm for Head-Mounted Display Technology: Application to Medical Visualization and Remote Collaborative Environments

Today advanced 3D virtual environments are mostly based on either a technology known as the cave or head-mounted displays. A new type of head-mounted display, which consists of a pair of miniature projection lenses and displays mounted on the helmet and retro-reflective sheeting materials placed strategically in the environment, has been proposed as an alternative to eyepiece optics types of di...

Design of an ultralight and compact projection lens.

Driven by the need for lightweight head-mounted displays, we present the design of an ultralight and compact projection lens for a head-mounted projective display (HMPD). An HMPD consists of a pair of miniature projection lenses, beam splitters, and miniature displays mounted on the helmet and retroreflective sheeting materials placed strategically in the environment. The HMPD has been proposed...
