EYE IMAGING SYSTEMS FOR HEAD-WORN COMPUTERS
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to eye illumination and capture systems and methods for use in head-worn computing systems.
1 .- 4 . (canceled)
5 . A head-worn computer, comprising:
a see-through computer display comprising a combiner system;
the combiner system comprising a flat surface that reflects image light away from a user's eye towards a curved surface that reflects the image light back towards the user's eye;
the flat surface having a side that is proximate a nose bridge mounted to the head-worn computer; and
an eye imaging camera mounted proximate the side of the flat surface and positioned to image the eye directly.
6 . The head-worn computer of claim 5 , further comprising an eye illumination system, wherein the eye illumination system produces a pattern of light on the user's eye, wherein a change in the shape of the pattern of light is interpreted by a processor as an eye position change.
7 . The head-worn computer of claim 6 , wherein the eye illumination system comprises reflective features that produce the pattern of light.
