Systems and methods for personal viewing devices

1. A personal viewing device for overlaying images, comprising:

a mount;

a camera attached to the mount, the camera configured to generate a first image;

an electronic display attached to the mount, the electronic display configured to present an overlaid image;

an electronic circuit that is attached to the mount, the electronic circuit configured to process the first image to identify a position and an orientation of the personal viewing device relative to an object within a field of view of the camera;

produce a second image comprising annotations, the annotations produced based on the position and the orientation of the personal viewing device relative to the object, and

overlay the first image with the second image to produce the overlaid image; and

display the overlaid image on the electronic display;

a lens attached to the mount and positioned by the mount so that an eye views the electronic display through the lens; and

a second electronic display attached to the mount, a second lens attached to the mount and positioned by the mount so that a second eye views the second electronic display through the second lens, and a mechanical adjustment device that allows the position of the electronic display and the lens to be adjusted relative to the position of the second electronic display and the second lens;

wherein an amount of overlap of an image seen by the eye and the second eye is increased or decreased upon adjustment of the position of the electronic display and the lens relative to the position of the second electronic display and the second lens;

a first eyepiece including the electronic display and the lens; and

a second eyepiece including the second electronic display and the second lens;

wherein both the first eyepiece and the second eyepiece are rotatable towards each other, via the mechanical adjustment device, to a first configuration in which the optical axis of the first eyepiece and the optical axis of the second eyepiece are parallel to each other, and

wherein both the first eyepiece and the second eyepiece are rotatable away from each other, via the mechanical adjustment device, to a second configuration in which the optical axis of the first eyepiece and the optical axis of the second eyepiece are not parallel to each other.

2. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the first image comprises an input image and the second image comprises a graphic image of symbols, letters, or drawings.

3. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the second image comprises status information of the personal viewing device.

4. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the second image comprises an advertisement.

5. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a wireless transceiver attached to the mount, the wireless transceiver configured to:

transmit telemetry data associated with the first image, and

receive a second image in response to transmitting the telemetry data, the second image based, at least in part, on the at least one of the position or the orientation of the personal viewing device relative to the object.

6. The personal viewing device of claim 5 , wherein the wireless transceiver is in communication with a cellular phone.

7. The personal viewing device of claim 5 , wherein the wireless transceiver is in communication with another wireless transceiver of another personal viewing device.

8. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , further comprising an input/output interface for physically connecting one or more personal viewing device peripheral devices to the personal viewing device and electrically connecting the one or more personal viewing device peripheral devices to the electronic circuit.

9. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the first image comprises a widescreen image and wherein the electronic circuit separates the first image into a first overlapping image for display on the electronic display and a second overlapping image for display on the second electronic display.

10. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic circuit is further configured to display different images on the electronic display and the second electronic display based on the electronic circuit determining (i) a first comparison between the resolution of the first image and the resolution of both the electronic display and the second electronic display and (ii) a second comparison between the aspect ratio of the first image and the aspect ratio of both the electronic display and the second electronic display.

11. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the second image is based, at least in part on an input from a motor vehicle system, the input from the motor vehicle system conforming to the controller area network (CAN) standard.

12. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein

the camera is one of a plurality of cameras attached to the mount; and

the first image is based on a field of view of the plurality of cameras.

13. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the second image is associated with an eye test application.

14. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic circuit system is configured to process the first image to identify a person within the field of view of the camera, the second image produced, based, at least in part, on the person being identified.

15. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the second image is produced such that the overlaid image warns of an imminent collision with the object.

16. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein

the second image includes a virtual user interface;

the object is a portion of a body of a user of the personal viewing device; and

the electronic circuit is configured to process the first image to identify a gesture of the user representing an interaction with the virtual user interface.

17. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , wherein the mount is configured to be worn on a head of a user.

18. The personal viewing device of claim 1 ,

wherein an increase or decrease of the of the overlap of the image is based on the personal viewing device configuring the image by sensing an amount of adjustment of the position of the electronic display and the lens relative to the position of the second electronic display and the second lens.

19. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , further comprising

a processor included in the electronic circuit, the processor configured to adjust a contrast of the first image generated by the camera.

20. The personal viewing device of claim 1 , further comprising a processor included in the electronic circuit, the processor configured to execute a business application that is an online marketplace for applications for personal viewing devices.
