Abstract
A physician performing a physical examination can miss subtle abnormalities, such as alterations of respiratory rate or dangerous skin lesion. A surgeon performing surgery can miss small areas of bleeding or tumor implants. This invention comprises head display unit comprising sensors including low light level TV (L3TV) cameras that gather data and in real time analyzes the data for potential hazards and alerts the user of a potential hazardous scenario.
Claims20
A head display unit (HDU) comprising:
- a processor;
- a first camera located on a first viewing position on said HDU configured to image an area;
- a second camera located on a second viewing position on said HDU configured to image said area wherein said second camera is separated from said first camera by a distance;
- a left eye display operably connected to the processor;
- a right eye display operably connected to the processor;
- a GPS;
- an orientation sensor;
- and
- a non-transitory memory having computer-executable instructions stored thereupon which, when executed by the processor of the HDU, cause the HDU to:
- use said GPS to obtain a GPS coordinate of said HDU at time points,
- use said orientation sensor to obtain a viewing angle of said HDU at said time points;
- use said first camera to perform imaging of said area at said time points;
- use said second camera to perform imaging of said area at said time points;
- for said time points, use said GPS coordinate, said viewing angle, said imaging of said area by said first camera, said imaging of said area by said second camera to generate a dataset wherein said dataset represents said area,
- for a stored time point from said time points in said dataset, use a left eye image of said dataset wherein said left eye image is based on a GPS coordinate of said HDU at said stored time point, a viewing angle at said stored time point and an image from said first camera at said stored time point;
- for said stored time point from said time points in said dataset, use a right eye image of said dataset wherein said right eye image is based on said GPS coordinate of said HDU at said stored time point, said viewing angle at said stored time point and an image from said second camera at said stored time point;
- display said left eye image on said left eye display;
- and
- display said right eye image on said right eye display.

A method comprising:
- performing imaging of an area using a first camera located on a left side of a head display unit (HDU) configured to be in proximity to a left eye of a user wearing said HDU at time points wherein said HDU comprises a GPS system and an orientation sensor;
- performing imaging of said area using a second camera located on a right side of said HDU configured to be in proximity to a right eye of said user wearing said HDU at said time points wherein said second camera is separated from said first camera by a distance;
- using said GPS to obtain a GPS coordinate of said HDU at said time points;
- using said orientation sensor to obtain a viewing angle of said HDU at said time points;
- for said time points, using said GPS coordinate, said viewing angle, said imaging of said are from said first camera and, said imaging of said area from said second camera to generate a dataset wherein said dataset represents said area;
- for a stored time point from said time points, using a left eye of said dataset wherein said left eye image is based on a GPS coordinate of said HDU at said stored time point, a viewing angle at said stored time point and an image from said first camera at said stored time point;
- for said stored time points, using a right eye image of said dataset wherein said right eye image is based on said GPS coordinate of said HDU at said stored time points, said viewing angle at said stored time point and an image from said second camera at said stored time point;
- displaying said left eye image onto a left eye display of said HDU;
- and
- displaying said right eye image onto a right eye display of said HDU.
