Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a technology that helps improve vision for visually challenged users by using augmented reality techniques. The technology uses a FOV (Field of View) model that is adjusted based on the needs of visually challenged users. The technology also allows users to adjust the parameters that control warping and offers a structured process to guide users in addressing large-scale appearance issues. The patent also mentions the use of guide lines to aid in targeting and fixation, pupil tracking algorithms, and hybrid distortion algorithms to improve visual adaptation and understanding. Overall, the technology helps users to better visualize and enhance their surroundings.

Problems solved by technology

This impact can affect their life in many ways including loss of the ability to read, loss of income, loss of mobility and an overall degraded quality of life.
However, with increased magnification comes decreased FOV (Field of View) and therefore the lack of ability to see other words or objects around the word or object of interest.

Abstract

Adaptive Control Driven System / ACDS 99, supports visual enhancement, mitigation of challenges and with basic image modification algorithms and any known hardware from contact lenses to IOLs to AR hardware glasses, & enables users to enhance vision with user interface based on a series of adjustments that are applied to move, modify, or reshape image sets and components with full advantage of the remaining useful retinal area, thus addressing aspects of visual challenges heretofore inaccessible by devices which learn needed adjustments.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO PRIORITY APPLICATIONS[0001]Expressly incorporated by references, the present disclosures relate to the U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 62 / 424,343 filed Nov. 18, 2016 and assigned to EYEDAPTIC, LLC. All domestic and foreign priority reserved and claimed from said USSN remains the property of said assignee.FIELD[0002]The fields of vision augmentation, automation of the same, specialized interfaces between users and such tools, including but not limited to artificial intelligence—particularly for visually challenged users of certain types, were a launch point for the instant systems now encompassing improved systems for augmented reality visual aids and tools.BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURES[0003]A modicum of background stitches together the various aspects of what the instant inventions offer to several divergent attempts to merge optical, visual and cognitive elements in systems to create, correct and project images for users.[0004]Augmented Reality (AR) ...
