Design of a near-eye display measurement system using an anthropomorphic vision imaging method.

Abstract

We developed a new near-eye display measurement system using anthropomorphic vision imaging to measure the key parameters of near-eye displays, including field-of-view (FOV), angular resolution, eye box, and virtual image depth. The characteristics of the human eye, such as pupil position, pupil size variation, accommodation function, and the high resolution of the fovea, are imitated by the proposed measurement system. A FOV scanning structure, together with a non-vignetting image-telecentric lens system, captures the virtual image from the near-eye display by imitating human eye function. As a proof-of-concept, a prototype device was used to obtain large-range, high-resolution measurements for key parameters of near-eye displays.
