چکیده

In non-orthoscopic video see-through (VST) head-mounted displays (HMDs), depth perception through stereopsis is adversely affected by sources of spatial perception errors. Solutions for parallax-free and orthoscopic VST HMDs were considered to ensure proper space perception but at expenses of an increased bulkiness and weight. In this work, we present a hybrid video-optical see-through HMD the geometry of which explicitly violates the rigorous conditions of orthostereoscopy. For properly recovering natural stereo fusion of the scene within the personal space in a region around a predefined distance from the observer, we partially resolve the eye-camera parallax by warping the camera images through a perspective preserving homography that accounts for the geometry of the VST HMD and refers to such distance. For validating our solution; we conducted objective and subjective tests. The goal of the tests was to assess the efficacy of our solution in recovering natural depth perception in the space around said reference distance. The results obtained showed that the quasi-orthoscopic setting of the HMD; together with the perspective preserving image warping; allow the recovering of a correct perception of the relative depths. The perceived distortion of space around the reference plane proved to be not as severe as predicted by the mathematical models.

Simulation-Based Design and Rapid Prototyping of a Parallax-Free, Orthoscopic Video See-Through Head-Mounted Display

We built a video see-through head-mounted display with zero eye offset from commercial components and a mount fabricated via rapid prototyping. The orthoscopic HMD’s layout was created and optimized with a software simulator. We describe simulator and HMD design, we show the HMD in use and demonstrate zero parallax.

A comparison of optical and video see-through head-mounted displays

One of the most promising and challenging future uses of head-mounted displays (HMDs) is in applications where virtual environments enhance rather than replace real environments. To obtain an enhanced view of the real environment, the user wears a see-through HMD to see 3D computergenerated objects superimposed on his/her real-world view. This see-through capability can be accomplished using ei...

Optical see-through HMD calibration: a stereo method validated with a video see-through system

This paper presents initial results from an ongoing work to calibrate optical see-through head-mounted displays (HMDs). We have developed a method to calibrate stereoscopic optical see-through HMDs based on the 3D alignment of a target in the physical world with a virtual object in user’s view. This is an extension of the Single Point Active Alignment Method (SPAAM) [28] developed for monocular...

Silylation of Alcohols and Phenols Using HMDS Catalyzed by SiO2-Cl in Solution and Solvent-Free Conditions

Trimethylsilylation of a variety of alcohols and phenols, in the presence of silica chloride, using hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) in solution and under solvent-free conditions is reported. Trimethylsilyl ethers were formed in excellent yields both for aliphatic alcohols and phenols without having an electron-withdrawing group. In addition, SiO2-Cl can be recovered and reused after drying.
