Abstract

This disclosure relates to a head-mounted display including a wearable component, a display device and at least one sensor. The display device is movably disposed on the wearable component. The at least one sensor is connected to the display device. A position of the display device is related to a sensing result of the at least one sensor.

Claims (18)

1. A head-mounted display, comprising:

a wearable component;

a display device comprising two separate optical modules;

at least one sensor, fixed to the display device and comprising at least one gravity sensor and at least one eye-tracking sensor, wherein the at least one eye-tracking sensor corresponds to the optical modules;

a base assembly, comprising a base part and two front shells, wherein the base part is pivotably disposed on the wearable component about an axis, the two front shells are respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the base part; and

a frame, wherein the optical modules of the display device are both fixed to the frame so that a distance between the optical modules is fixed, and wherein the frame comprises a front cover;

wherein a position of the display device is related to a sensing result of the at least one gravity sensor and the at least one eye-tracking sensor;

wherein two opposite ends of the front cover of the frame are respectively movably inserted into the two front shells so that the front cover are movable between the front shells, and the front cover, the optical modules of the display device, the at least one gravity sensor, and the at least one eye-tracking sensor are together linearly movable along a direction substantially parallel to the axis of the base assembly with respect to the wearable component according to the sensing result of the at least one eye-tracking sensor.

2. The head-mounted display according to claim 1 , wherein an inclination of the optical modules relative to the wearable component is related to the sensing result of the at least one gravity sensor.

3. The head-mounted display according to claim 1 , wherein a position of a symmetric center line of the optical modules is related to the sensing result of the at least one eye-tracking sensor.

4. The head-mounted display according to claim 1 , wherein the display device is pivotably disposed on the wearable component, and an amount of pivoting of the display device relative to the wearable component is related to the sensing result of the at least one gravity sensor.

5. The head-mounted display according to claim 1 , further comprising a first driving component, wherein the first driving component is configured to drive the base assembly to pivot relatively to the wearable component, the at least one gravity sensor is disposed on the display device, and the display device activates the first driving component according to the sensing result of the at least one gravity sensor.

6. The head-mounted display according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of sliding of the display device relative to the wearable component is related to the sensing result of the at least one eye-tracking sensor.

7. The head-mounted display according to claim 1 , further comprising a second driving component, wherein the second driving component is configured to drive the frame to slide relatively to the base assembly, and the display device activates the second driving component according to a sensing result of the at least one eye-tracking sensor.

8. The head-mounted display according to claim 1 , further comprising a first driving component, and a second driving component, wherein the first driving component is configured to drive the base assembly to pivot relatively to the wearable component about the axis, and the second driving component is configured to drive the frame to linearly slide relatively to the base assembly along the direction parallel to the axis of the base assembly.

9. The head-mounted display according to claim 8 , wherein the display device activates the first driving component according to a sensing result of the at least one gravity sensor, and the display device activates the second driving component according to a sensing result of the at least one eye-tracking sensor.

10. The head-mounted display according to claim 9 , wherein a position of a symmetric center line of the optical modules is related to the sensing result of the at least one eye-tracking sensor, and an inclination of the optical modules relative to the wearable component is related to the sensing result of the at least one gravity sensor.

11. The head-mounted display according to claim 1 , wherein the frame comprises a front frame and a rear frame, and the optical modules are between the front frame and the rear frame.
