Abstract

A head mounted display (HMD) is disclosed. The HMD comprises a screen, a processing circuit and an eyeglass frame. The screen displays a coded data associated with an exchange information. The processing circuit outputs the coded data to the screen. The eyeglass frame carries the screen and the processing circuit.

Claims

1. A head-mounted display (HMD), comprising:

a first screen for displaying first coded data associated with first exchange information;

a processing circuit for outputting the first coded data to the first screen; and

an eyeglass frame for carrying the first screen and the processing circuit;

wherein the eyeglass frame comprises a frame, a first handle and a second handle, the frame is located between the first handle and the second handle and the first screen is disposed on the first handle.

2. The head-mounted display according to claim 1, further comprising:

a database for storing at least a sample data;

an image capturing device for capturing second coded data, wherein the processing circuit generates second exchange information according to the second coded data and generates the sample data according to the second exchange information; and

a projection unit for projecting the second exchange information.

3. The head-mounted display according to claim 2, wherein the image capturing device captures a first facial image associated with the second coded data.

4. The head-mounted display according to claim 3, wherein the processing circuit extracts a plurality of first facial features of the first facial image.

5. The head-mounted display according to claim 4, wherein the processing circuit generates the sample data according to the second exchange information and the first facial features.

6. The head-mounted display according to claim 4, wherein the processing circuit generates the sample data according to the second exchange information, the first facial image and the first facial features.

7. The head-mounted display according to claim 4, wherein the image capturing device captures a second facial image, the processing circuit extracts a plurality of second facial features of the second facial image and judges whether the second facial image matches the sample data and when the second facial image matches the sample data, the processing circuit controls the projection unit to project the second exchange information.

8. The head-mounted display according to claim 7, wherein when the second facial image does not match the sample data, the processing circuit adds another sample data to the database, the processing circuit generates the another sample data according to the second facial features and a user'"'"'s annotations.

9. The head-mounted display according to claim 7, wherein the processing circuit calculates an a Euclidean distance according to the first facial features and the second facial features, when the Euclidean distance is the smallest and the Euclidean distance is smaller than a threshold, the second facial image matches the sample data.

10. The head-mounted display according to claim 3, wherein the processing circuit generates the sample data according to the second exchange information and the first facial image.

11. The head-mounted display according to claim 2, wherein the processing circuit comprises an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and an application processor, the ASIC is connected to the application processor, the image capturing device and the first screen are connected to the ASIC and the projection unit is connected to the application processor.

12. The head-mounted display according to claim 2, wherein the processing circuit comprises an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and an application processor, the ASIC is connected to the application processor, the image capturing device is connected to the ASIC and the projection unit and the first screen are connected to the application processor.

13. The head-mounted display according to claim 2, wherein the processing circuit comprises an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and an application processor, the ASIC is connected to the application processor, the first screen is connected to the ASIC and the projection unit and the image capturing device are connected to the application processor.

14. The head-mounted display according to claim 2, wherein the processing circuit comprises an application processor, the first screen, the projection unit and the image capturing device are connected to the application processor.

15. The head-mounted display according to claim 1, further comprising:

a second screen for displaying a second coded data associated with the first exchange information.

16. The head-mounted display according to claim 15, wherein the second screen is disposed on the second handle.

17. The head-mounted display according to claim 15, further comprising:

a third screen for displaying third coded data associated with the first exchange information.

18. The head-mounted display according to claim 17, wherein the third screen is disposed on the second handle.

19. The head-mounted display according to claim 1, wherein the first coded data is a two-dimensional matrix barcode.

20. The head-mounted display according to claim 19, wherein the two-dimensional matrix barcode is a QR code, a micro QR code, a data matrix or an Aztec code.
