SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CUSTOMIZING OPTICAL REPRESENTATION OF VIEWS PROVIDED BY A HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY BASED ON OPTICAL PRESCRIPTION OF A USER
Systems and methods for operating a screen of a head mounted display includes executing a program. The execution of the program causes rendering of images on the screen of the HMD. The screen renders the images using a first optical setting. A first image is presented on the screen. The first image has a first size and is presented at a distance. Input is received identifying a clarity level for the first image. A second image is presented on the screen. The second image has a second size and the distance. Input is received identifying the clarity level for the second image. Based on the clarity level received for the first and the second images, the first optical setting for the screen is changed to a second optical setting.
1 . A method for operating a screen of a head mounted display (HMD), comprising,
executing a program, the execution rendering images on the screen of the HMD, the screen rendering the images using a first optical setting;
presenting a first image on the screen, the first image having a first size and a distance;
receiving input identifying a clarity level for the first image;
presenting a second image on the screen, the second image having a second size and the distance;
receiving input identifying a clarity level for the second image; and
changing the first optical setting to a second optical setting based on the clarity level received for the first and second images.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first size is larger than the second size.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the second size is larger than the first size.
4 . The method of claim 1 , further includes,
maintaining the second optical setting in a user profile of the user at the HMD, wherein information from the user profile used in adjusting the screen of the HMD during subsequent use.
5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein the user profile includes at least a biometric identity for identifying the user, the biometric identity is generated using one of retinal scanning or iris scanning using an internal camera of the HMD.
6 . The method of claim 4 , further includes,
adjusting the second optical setting for the screen of the HMD in response to changes in the clarity level feedback obtained from the user; and
updating the second optical setting stored in the user profile to reflect the adjustment.
7 . A method for operating a screen of a head mounted display (HMD), comprising,
executing a program, the execution rendering images on the screen of the HMD, the screen rendering the images using an optical setting;
presenting a plurality of images on the screen at a virtual distance, each of the plurality of images having a distinct size;
receiving clarity level feedback from a user for each of the plurality of images; and
automatically adjusting the optical setting of the screen, such that the adjusted optical setting compensates for optical characteristics of the user's vision.
8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein presenting the plurality of images further includes, adjusting the virtual distance used for presenting the plurality of images, the virtual distance adjusted to obtain clarity level feedback.
9 . The method of claim 7 , wherein adjusting further includes,
obtaining selection of optical prescription settings for the user, the optical prescription settings selected from a list of prescription settings presented on a user interface; and
tuning the adjusted optical settings of the screen of the HMD in accordance to the optical prescription settings for the user.
10 . The method of claim 7 , further includes,
updating a user profile of the user at the HMD with the adjusted optical settings.
11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the user profile includes at least a biometric identity.
12 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the biometric identity in the user profile is generated and verified using one of retinal scanning or iris scanning technique using an internal camera of the HMD.
13 . A method for operating a screen of a head mounted display (HMD), comprising,
executing a program, the execution rendering images on the screen of the HMD, the screen rendering the images using an optical setting;
presenting a plurality of images on the screen at a virtual distance, each of the plurality of images having a distinct size;
receiving clarity level feedback from a user for each of the plurality of images;
receiving a selection of optical prescription settings for the user; and
automatically adjusting the optical setting of the screen of the HMD in accordance to the clarity level feedback and the selected optical prescription settings, such that the adjusted optical setting compensates for optical characteristics of the user's vision.
14 . The method of claim 13 , wherein the selection of optical prescription settings are selected from a list of optical prescription settings rendered on a user interface that is presented on the screen of the HMD.
15 . The method of claim 13 , further includes,
storing the adjusted optical setting of the screen for the HMD in a user profile of the user at the HMD.
16 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the user profile includes a biometric identity for identifying the user, wherein the biometric identity of the user is obtained by engaging one of retina scanning or iris scanning technique using an internal camera of the HMD.
17 . A method for operating a screen of the head mounted device (HMD), comprising:
detecting a user wearing the HMD using a biometric identity of the user;
retrieving a user profile for the user, the user profile identified using the biometric identity of the user; and
automatically adjusting an optical setting of the screen of the HMD in accordance to an optical setting defined for the user within the user profile.
