Systems and methods for operating a head-mounted display system based on user identity
Systems and methods for depth plane selection in display system such as augmented reality display systems, including mixed reality display systems, are disclosed. A display(s) may present virtual image content via image light to an eye(s) of a user. The display(s) may output the image light to the eye(s) of the user, the image light to have different amounts of wavefront divergence corresponding to different depth planes at different distances away from the user. A camera(s) may capture images of the eye(s). An indication may be generated based on obtained images of the eye(s), indicating whether the user is identified. The display(s) may be controlled to output the image light to the eye(s) of the user, the image light to have the different amounts of wavefront divergence based at least in part on the generated indication indicating whether the user is identified.
1. A wearable system comprising:

a camera configured to capture an image of the eye of the user; and
one or more processors configured to:
receive, via the camera, the image of the eye of the user;
determine an identity of the user based on the image, wherein the determining the identity of the user comprises determining whether the user is a registered user; and
present the image light, via the display, to the eye of the user, wherein the amount of wavefront divergence is determined based at least in part on the identity of the user and wherein, in accordance with a determination that the user is the registered user, the amount of wavefront divergence is determined further based at least in part on settings associated with the registered user.
2. The wearable system of claim 1 , wherein the determining the identity of the user comprises performing one or more of an iris scanning operation or an iris authentication operation.
3. The wearable system of claim 1 , wherein:
in accordance with a determination that the user is not the registered user, the amount of wavefront divergence is determined based at least in part on default settings.
4. The wearable system of claim 1 , wherein:
the determining the identity of the user comprises determining that the user is not the registered user, and
the one or more processors are further configured to:
perform one or more of enrolling the user via iris authentication or generating a calibration profile for the user;
determine settings for the user based at least in part on information obtained via the one or more of the enrolling or the generating the calibration profile; and
determine the amount of wavefront divergence based at least in part on the settings determined for the user.
5. The wearable system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:
present, via the display, a virtual target to the user; and
receive the image of the eye via the camera concurrently with presenting the virtual target to the user.
6. The wearable system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:
receive, via the camera, a second image of the eye of the user, wherein the identity of the user is determined further based on the second image.
7. A method comprising:
presenting, via a display of a wearable system, virtual image content to an eye of a user, wherein the presenting the virtual image content comprises presenting image light to the eye of the user, the image light having an amount of wavefront divergence corresponding to a depth plane at a distance from the user;
receiving, via a camera of the wearable system, an image of the eye of the user;
determining an identity of the user based on the image, wherein the determining the identity of the user comprises determining whether the user is a registered user; and
presenting the image light, via the display, to the eye of the user, wherein the amount of wavefront divergence is determined based at least in part on the identity of the user and wherein, in accordance with a determination that the user is the registered user, the amount of wavefront divergence is determined further based at least in part on settings associated with the registered user.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the determining the identity of the user comprises performing one or more of an iris scanning operation or an iris authentication operation.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein:
in accordance with a determination that the user is not the registered user, the amount of wavefront divergence is determined based at least in part on default settings.
10. The method of claim 7 , wherein:
the determining the identity of the user comprises determining that the user is not the registered user, and
the method further comprises:
performing one or more of enrolling the user via iris authentication or generating a calibration profile for the user;
determining settings for the user based at least in part on information obtained via the one or more of the enrolling or the generating the calibration profile; and
determining the amount of wavefront divergence based at least in part on the settings determined for the user.
11. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
presenting, via the display, a virtual target to the user; and
receiving the image of the eye via the camera concurrently with presenting the virtual target to the user.
12. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
receiving, via the camera, a second image of the eye of the user, wherein the identity of the user is determined further based on the second image.
13. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a wearable system, cause the one or more processors to perform a method comprising:
presenting, via a display of the wearable system, virtual image content to an eye of a user, wherein the presenting the virtual image content comprises presenting image light to the eye of the user, the image light having an amount of wavefront divergence corresponding to a depth plane at a distance from the user;
receiving, via a camera of the wearable system, an image of the eye of the user;
determining an identity of the user based on the image, wherein the determining the identity of the user comprises determining whether the user is a registered user; and
presenting the image light, via the display, to the eye of the user, wherein the amount of wavefront divergence is determined based at least in part on the identity of the user and wherein, in accordance with a determination that the user is the registered user, the amount of wavefront divergence is determined further based at least in part on settings associated with the registered user.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the determining the identity of the user comprises performing one or more of an iris scanning operation or an iris authentication operation.
15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein:
in accordance with a determination that the user is not the registered user, the amount of wavefront divergence is determined based at least in part on default settings.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the method further comprises:
