Abstract

Interactive systems using adaptive control software and hardware from known and later developed eyepieces to later developed head-wear to lenses, including implantable, temporarily insertable and contact and related film based types of lenses including thin film transparent elements for housing cameras lenses and projector and functional equivalent processing tools. Simple controls, real-time updates and instant feedback allow implicit optimization of a universal model while managing complexity.

Claims (14)

1. A visual aid eyeglass device configured to be worn by a low-vision user, comprising:

a frame;

a camera mounted within the frame and configured to capture images of a scene;

a processor configured to modify the images to produce corrected images of the scene;

an optical system mounted within the frame and configured to present the corrected images of the scene to one or more eyes of the low-vision user, the optical system being configured to block an external central light path so that a central visual field of the low-vision user comprises only the corrected images of the scene, the optical system being further configured to simultaneously allow an external peripheral light path passing between an edge of the optical system and the frame to reach the eye of the low-vision user to preserve the low-vision user's existing peripheral vision of the scene.

2. The visual aid eyeglass device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to modify a magnification of the images.

3. The visual aid eyeglass device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to modify an amount of magnification over at least a portion of the images.

4. The visual aid eyeglass device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to modify a contrast of the images.

5. The visual aid eyeglass device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to adjust the corrected images to blend smoothly from the central visual field of the low-vision user into the peripheral vision of the low-vision user.

6. The visual aid eyeglass device of claim 5 , wherein the processor is configured to modify a magnification of the images.

7. The visual aid eyeglass device of claim 5 , wherein the processor is configured to modify an amount of magnification over at least a portion of the images.

8. The visual aid eyeglass device of claim 5 , wherein the processor is configured to modify a contrast of the images.

9. The visual aid eyeglass device of claim 5 , wherein the processor is configured to apply color mapping to the images.

10. The visual aid eyeglass device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to apply color mapping to the images.
