Abstract

A head-mounted display device includes a display, a lens group and an actuator. The display is used for generating an image light beam. The lens group is disposed between the display and a target area and is adapted to focus the image light beam to form a display image in the target area. The actuator is coupled to the display or the lens group to periodically move the display or the lens group on a plane.

Claims (24)

1. A head-mounted display device, comprising:

a display, used for generating an image light beam;

a lens group, disposed between the display and a target area and adapted to focus the image light beam to form a display image in the target area; and

an actuator, coupled to the display or the lens group to periodically move the display or the lens group on a plane, wherein the plane is parallel to a viewing plane of a user.

2. The head-mounted display device according to claim 1 , wherein the actuator makes the display or the lens group move on the plane along a rectangular trajectory, a circular trajectory or multiple straight-line trajectories.

3. The head-mounted display device according to claim 1 , wherein the actuator makes the display or the lens group complete at least one period of movement in a frame period of the display.

4. The head-mounted display device according to claim 1 , wherein the actuator makes the display or the lens group move on the plane at a frequency that is a positive integer multiple of one frame frequency of the display.

5. The head-mounted display device according to claim 1 , wherein the actuator makes the display or the lens group move on the plane with an amplitude determined by the distance between two adjacent pixels in the display.

6. The head-mounted display device according to claim 1 , further comprises:

a controller, coupled to the actuator, generates a driving signal to drive the actuator.

7. A display method for a head-mounted display device, comprising:

providing a display for generating an image light beam;

providing a lens group disposed between the display and a target area and the lens group is adapted to focus the image light beam to form a display image in the target area; and

providing an actuator for periodically moving the display or the lens group on a plane, wherein the plane is parallel to a viewing plane of a user.

8. The display method according to claim 7 , further comprises:

providing the actuator to make the display or the lens group move on the plane along a rectangular trajectory, a circular trajectory or multiple straight-line trajectories.

9. The display method according to claim 7 , further comprises:

providing the actuator to make the display or the lens group complete at least one period of movement in a frame period of the display.

10. The display method according to claim 7 , further comprises:

providing the actuator to make the display or the lens group move on the plane at a frequency that is a positive integer multiple of a frame frequency of the display.

11. The display method according to claim 7 , further comprises:

determining an amplitude of the display or the lens group moving on the plane according to the distance between two adjacent pixels in the display.

12. The display method according to claim 7 , further comprises:

providing a controller to generate a driving signal to drive the actuator.
