Augmented reality glasses
A pair of augmented reality glasses including a projection device and a waveguide is provided. The projection device is configured to provide a collimated beam. The waveguide has a plurality of free form surfaces. Distances between each free form surface and the projection device are different from each other. The collimated beam progresses to and reflects off these free form surfaces in sequence, and then enters eyes of the user.
