Eyebox adjustment for interpupillary distance
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- left optical lenses configured to receive light of an image for viewing with a left eye, the left optical lenses including a first left optical lens and a second left optical lens, the first left optical lens configured to deviate the light of the image by a first deviation angle;
right optical lenses configured to receive the light of the image for viewing with a right eye, the right optical lenses including a first right optical lens and a second right optical lens, the first right optical lens configured to deviate the light of the image by a second deviation angle; and
a left eyebox and a right eyebox each configured to align with the respective left and right eyes that view the image, the left and right optical lenses configured to laterally shift the light of the image based in part on the first and second deviation angles to increase or decrease a distance between the left and right eyeboxes.

Abstract
In embodiments of eyebox adjustment for interpupillary distance, a first optical lens receives light of an image at a projected orientation of the light, and deviates the light by a deviation angle from the projected orientation of the light. A second optical lens receives the deviated light of the image from the first optical lens at the deviation angle, and alters the deviated light back to the projected orientation of the light for viewing the image. Left and right eyeboxes align with respective left and right eyes that view the image, and a distance between the left and right eyeboxes approximately correlates to an interpupillary distance between the left and right eyes. The light of the image can be laterally shifted to increase or decrease the distance between the left and right eyeboxes.
