  • Publication number: 20240107640
    Abstract: An LED driving device with an adjustable dimming depth is provided. The LED driving device includes an LED driver and a dimming depth control circuit. The LED driver includes a dimming control circuit and a driving circuit. The dimming control circuit generates a first pulse-width modulation (PWM) signal according to a first brightness indication signal. The driving circuit drives a first light source and adjusts a brightness of the first light source. A duty ratio of the first PWM signal and the first driving current have a first relationship therebetween. The dimming depth control circuit includes a first variable resistance circuit, and the first variable resistance circuit controls a magnitude of a first variable resistance between a first current sampling terminal and a ground terminal according to a first dimming depth control signal. The first relationship defines a first dimming depth that varies with the first variable resistance.

  • Publication number: 20230191230
    Abstract: When an operation block is placed in a placing groove to electrically connect a connection module of the operation block to a control module that correspond in position to the placing groove, the control module sends an identification information of the operation block to a head-mounted display. The head-mounted display identifies the operation block according to the identification information thereof, and displays an augmented reality image corresponding to the operation block.
