Publication number: 20230418076Abstract: A system for adjusting an interpupillary distance and an eye relief distance of a headset. The system can determine an interpupillary distance of a user and an eye relief distance of the user. The system can cause an adjustment assembly to adjust a first distance between the first lens and the second lens along a first axis based at least in part on the interpupillary distance and cause the adjustment assembly to adjust the optical assembly a second distance along a second axis that is orthogonal to the first axis based at least in part on the eye relief distance.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2022Publication date: December 28, 2023Inventors: David Christopher Lindberg, Ryan Michael Ebert, Seth Moczydlowski, Bruce A Cleary, III, Eric Penner, Robert Birch

Patent number: 10989927Abstract: A method includes providing frames of video data for being displayed by a head mounted display (HMD). Pixel data is encoded in a pixel of at least some of the video data frames, the encoded pixel data defining a focal state of an optics block of the HMD for displaying the respective frame of the video data to a user. The predetermined focal state is determined from a plurality of available focal states of the optics block, each focal state corresponding to a different focal plane of a virtual image generated based on the video data. The pixel used for encoding may be disposed outside a region of the frame that is displayable by the HMD.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2019Date of Patent: April 27, 2021Assignee: FACEBOOK TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Douglas Robert Lanman, Yang Zhao, Bruce A. Cleary, Olivier Mercier, Robert Birch
