Handheld vision tester and calibration thereof
In one aspect, there is provided an embodiment of a calibration system for use with a vision tester having a display. In this particular embodiment, the calibration system comprises a calibration stand and a reflective surface. The calibration stand is configured to hold the vision tester. The reflective surface is coupled to the calibration stand and is oriented substantially parallel to the display. The calibration stand is configured to hold the display of the vision tester at a fixed distance from the reflective surface.
1. A calibration system for use with a vision tester having a display, comprising:
a calibration stand configured to hold said vision tester; and
a reflective surface coupled to said calibration stand and oriented substantially parallel to said display, said stand configured to hold said display at a fixed distance from said reflective surface.
2. The calibration system as recited in claim 1 wherein said reflective surface is configured to reflect images displayed on said display to a camera of said vision tester to allow said vision tester to employ said reflected images to calibrate and verify functionality of said vision tester.
3. The calibration system as recited in claim 2 wherein said images include varying colors, shapes and brightness.
4. The calibration system as recited in claim 2 wherein said images include calibration images.
5. The calibration system as recited in claim 2 wherein said images move.
6. The calibration system as recited in claim 1 wherein said vision tester includes calendar functions configured to remind a user to employ said calibration system to calibrate and verify functionality of said vision tester.
7. The calibration system as recited in claim 1 further comprising at least one security feature configured to protect information and privacy.
8. The calibration system as recited in claim 1 wherein said vision tester includes damage assessment functions configured to prompt a user to employ said calibration system to calibrate and verify functionality of said vision tester.
9. The calibration system as recited in claim 1 further comprising an auxiliary camera configured to capture an image.
10. The calibration system as recited in claim 9 wherein said auxiliary camera is configured to communicate with said vision tester.
11. The calibration system as recited in claim 9 wherein said auxiliary camera is configured to communicate with an external device.
12. A calibration system for use with a vision tester having a display, comprising:
a reflective surface oriented and configured to reflect images displayed on said display; and
a camera associated with said vision tester and configured to allow said vision tester to employ said reflected images to calibrate and verify functionality of said vision tester.
