HEAD TRACKING EYEWEAR SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A system for tracking with reference to a three-dimensional display system, comprising:
- a display device which images, during use, a first stereo three-dimensional image;
a surface comprising at least three emitters, wherein the surface is positionable, during use, with reference to the display device;
at least two sensors coupled to the display device in a known position and orientation referenced to the display device, wherein at least two of the sensors detect, during use, light received from at least three of the emitters as light blobs when the light blobs from the at least three emitters of the surface are detected substantially in proximity to the display device during use;
a processor coupled to at least two of the sensors, wherein the processor assesses, during use, a referenced position of the detected light blobs using a bounding function for each of at least two of the sensors, wherein the processor, correlates, during use, the assessed referenced position of the detected light blobs for each of at least two of the sensors such that a first position/orientation of the surface with reference to the display device is assessed; and
an image processor which generates, during use, the first stereo three-dimensional image using the assessed first position/orientation of the surface with reference to the display device.

Abstract
In some embodiments, a system for tracking with reference to a three-dimensional display system may include a display device, an image processor, a surface including at least three emitters, at least two sensors, a processor. The display device may image, during use, a first stereo three-dimensional image. The surface may be positionable, during use, with reference to the display device. At least two of the sensors may detect, during use, light received from at least three of the emitters as light blobs. The processor may correlate, during use, the assessed referenced position of the detected light blobs such that a first position/orientation of the surface is assessed. The image processor may generate, during use, the first stereo three-dimensional image using the assessed first position/orientation of the surface with reference to the display. The image processor may generate, during use, a second stereo three-dimensional image using an assessed second position/orientation of the surface with reference to the display.

16. A method for tracking with reference to a three-dimensional display system, comprising:
-
positioning a surface with reference to a display device, wherein the surface comprises at least three emitters; detecting light received from at least three of the emitters as light blobs when the light blobs from the at least three emitters of the surface are detected substantially in proximity to the display device using at least two sensors coupled to the display device in a known position and orientation with reference to the display device; assessing a referenced position of the detected light blobs using a bounding function for each of at least two of the sensors using a processor coupled to at least two of the sensors; correlating the assessed referenced position of the detected light blobs for each of at least two of the sensors such that a first position/orientation of the surface with reference to the display device is assessed; generating a first stereo three-dimensional image on the display device using an image processor, wherein the image processor uses the assessed first position/orientation of the surface with reference to the display device to generate the first stereo three-dimensional image; and generating a second stereo three-dimensional image on the display device using the image processor, wherein the image processor uses an assessed second position/orientation of the surface with reference to the display device to generate the second stereo three-dimensional image. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
