Wearable device and method for outputting virtual image
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of outputting a virtual image by a wearable device, the method comprising:
- radiating a first light to an eye of a user wearing the wearable device;
acquiring eye information related to a viewing point of the eye by detecting a second light which is reflected from the eye based on the first light;
acquiring tilt information on a tilt of the wearable device by using a sensor of the wearable device;
identifying a viewing distance of the user based on the eye information and the tilt information; and
displaying the virtual image on an actual view by using a projection type display based on the viewing distance of the user.

Abstract
A wearable device and a method of outputting a virtual image by the wearable device area provided. The wearable device includes a projection type display unit that includes a variable lens and configured to project a light forming an image, a first sensor configured to detect a light reflected from an eye of a user, and a processor configured to control to display the virtual image on the projection type display unit by controlling one of a location of the variable lens and refractive power of the variable lens based on retina image information corresponding to the detected light.

9. A wearable device comprising:
-
a projection type display comprising a variable lens, and configured to project a light forming an image; a first sensor configured to detect a light reflected from an eye of a user wearing the wearable device based on the projected light; a second sensor configured to detect a tilt of the wearable device; and at least one processor configured to; acquire eye information related to a viewing point of the eye based on the light detected by using the first sensor, acquire tilt information on the tilt of the wearable device by using the second sensor, identify a viewing distance of the user based on the eye information and the tilt information, and control the projection type display to display a virtual image by controlling one of a location of the variable lens or a refractive power of the variable lens based on the viewing distance. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
