Abstract

A virtual reality device with iris acquisition function, includes a housing having an accommodating space, an observing lens embedded in the housing, a display screen accommodated in the housing and arranged opposite to the observing lens, and at least one iris camera accommodated in the housing. The virtual reality device further includes at least one infrared source accommodated in the housing, the infrared source is arranged on a focal plane of the observing lens and light emitted from the infrared source passes through the observing lens to an iris of a human eye. The iris camera is configured to acquire an iris image of a human eye through the observing lens and the iris camera is arranged at a position which will not interfere a line of sight of the human eye on the infrared source and the display screen.

Claims (218)

1. A virtual reality device with iris acquisition function, comprising:

a housing having an accommodating space;

an observing lens embedded in the housing;

a display screen accommodated in the housing and arranged opposite to the observing lens; and

at least one iris camera accommodated in the housing; wherein the virtual reality device further comprises:

at least one accommodated in the housing, the infrared source is arranged on a focal plane of the observing lens and light emitted from the infrared source passes through the observing lens to an iris of a human eye, the iris camera is configured to acquire an iris image of the human eye through the observing lens and the iris camera is arranged at a position which will not interfere a line of sight of the human eye on the infrared source and the display screen;

two observing lens are provided, which respectively are a first observing lens and a second observing lens, the iris camera is configured to acquire two iris images of human eyes through the first observing lens and the second observing lens, respectively, the virtual reality device comprises an optical central axis passing through a center of the display screen, the iris camera and the infrared source are respectively arranged at two sides of the central axis;

a straight-line distance between the iris camera and the first observing lens or the second observing lens is X, a vertical distance between the iris camera and the central axis is Y, a straight-line distance between the first observing lens or the second observing lens and an image of the human eye generated through the observing lens is l′, X and Y meet following formula:
