HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD FOR THE HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

A head-mounted display device includes: an image-light generating unit for right eye that generates image light from image data for right eye and emits the image light; an image-light generating unit for left eye that generates image light from image data for left eye and the image light; a light guide units that guide the emitted image lights to the left and right eyes of the user; and a display control unit that transmits control signals for controlling the emission of the image lights respectively to the image-light generating unit for right eye and the image-light generating unit for left eye. The display control unit transitions, according to a condition set in advance, the head-mounted display device to a power saving state for causing one of the image-light generating unit for right eye and the image-light generating unit for left eye to stop the emission of the image light.

主权项

1. A head-mounted display device for making a user recognize a virtual image in a state in which the head-mounted display device is mounted on a head of the user, the head-mounted display device comprising:
an image-light generating unit for right eye to generate an image light from an image data for right eye corresponding to a right eye of the user and emits the image light; an image-light generating unit for left eye to generate the image light from an image data for left eye corresponding to a left eye of the user and emits the image light; a display control unit for controlling an emission of each of the image lights respectively made by the image-light generating unit for right eye and the image-light generating unit for left eye; a temperature detecting unit for right eye that detects a temperature of the image-light generating unit for right eye; and a temperature detecting unit for left eye that detects a temperature of the image-light generating unit for left eye, wherein the display control unit controls to transit, according to a condition set in advance, the head-mounted display device to a power saving state which makes one of the image-light generating unit for right eye and the image-light generating unit for left eye stop the emission of the image light and makes another execute the emission of the image light.
