Abstract
Disclosed herein are a head-mounted display and a method of controlling the same, more particularly, a method of performing rotation compensation on a captured image based on an angle of rotating a user wearing the head-mounted display and an angle of rotating a camera detached from the head-mounted display.
Claims20
A head-mounted display (HMD) comprising a first body and a second body,
- the first body comprises:
- a display unit configured to display visual information;
- a first angle sensing unit configured to sense a first angle of rotating the first body;
- a first communication unit configured to transmit/receive data;
- and
- a processor configured to control the display unit, the first angle sensing unit, and the first communication unit;
- and
- the second body comprises:
- a camera unit configured to sense an image;
- a second communication unit configured to transmit/receive data;
- an input sensing unit configured to detect an input signal and transmit a result of the detection to the processor;
- and
- a second angle sensing unit to sense a second angle of rotating the second body,
- wherein the second body is mountable to and detachable from the first body,
- wherein, when the second body is detached from the first body,
- the processor is further configured to:
- acquire the first angle of rotation and the second angle of rotation;
- display a separation image preview interface to display an image performed by a first rotation compensation on a sensed image based on the second angle of rotation;
- detect a first capturing signal;
- and
- capture the sensed image and store an image performed by a second rotation compensation on the captured image based on the first angle of rotation and the second angle of rotation.

A method of controlling a head-mounted display including a first body and a second body, the method comprising, in the case that the second body is detached from the first body, the steps of:
- acquiring a first angle of rotation and a second angle of rotation, wherein the first angel of rotation is an angle of rotating the first body and the second angle of rotation is an angle of rotating the second body;
- displaying a separation image preview interface to display an image performed by a first rotation compensation on a sensed image according to the second angle of rotation;
- detecting a first capturing signal;
- and
- capturing the sensed image and storing an image performed by a second rotation compensation on the captured image according to the first angle of rotation and the second angle of rotation.
