Abstract
A user-wearable examination/visualization/collection system with light enhancement comprising a carrier suitable for the retention of a lighting assembly and a viewing and collection system is presented wherein images or video of objects may be collected under natural (e.g., white) light and/or non-visible light (e.g., IR, UV) conditions, processed and presented to a user on a local display. Further disclosed are lighting assemblies that provide for the light necessary to collect images different lighting conditions and optical filtering that allows for a limitation of the light viewable and collected.
Claims15
An examination/visualization system comprising:
- an eyewear comprising:
- a first lens;
- and
- a second lens, joined by a bridge element;
- a visualization system associated with at least one of the first lens and the second lens, the visualization system comprising:
- a viewing/collection system comprising:
- a magnification device configured to:
- magnify, by a known level of magnification, an image of an object, the first magnification device comprising:
- an objective lens;
- and
- an eye-lens, the objective lens and the eye-lens forming a first optical axis;
- and
- an image capture assembly comprising:
- a second eye-lens, wherein the second eye-lens forms a second optical axis substantially perpendicular to the first optical axis;
- a beam splitter positioned between the objective lens and the eye-lens, the light director configured to:
- transmit through the beam splitter, a first portion of light, associated with the object, entering the objective lens along the first axis to the eye-lens, wherein a first magnified image of the object is formed;
- and
- reflect, through the beam splitter, a second portion of the light along the second axis to the second eye-lens, wherein a second magnified image of the object is formed;
- an image capture device configured to:
- receive light associated with the second magnified image of the object along the second axis;
- and
- generate an image of the object from the received light;
- a display system comprising:
- a display screen;
- and
- an electronic assembly configured to:
- receive information associated with at least one of:
- the image of the object and biometric data;
- and
- direct the received information to the display screen.
