Abstract
Techniques for optimizing which LEDs in a HMD to use, the brightness of those LEDs, and camera exposure are divulged based on the particular function to be performed. For instance, one set of optimization parameters may be implemented for eye tracking purposes while a different set of optimization parameters may be implemented for eye-based authentication purposes.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- controlling one or more light sources to illuminate an eye of a wearer of a head-mounted device (HMD) based at least in part a first set of parameters corresponding to a first function, wherein the first set of parameters includes an identity of the one or more light sources;
- and
- controlling the one or more light sources to illuminate the eye of the wearer of the HMD based at least in part a second set of parameters for a second function, wherein the second set of parameters includes the identity of the one or more light sources.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform operations comprising:
- controlling one or more light sources to illuminate an eye of a wearer of a head-mounted device (HMD) based at least in part a first set of parameters corresponding to a first function, wherein the first set of parameters includes an identity of the one or more light sources;
- and
- controlling the one or more light sources to illuminate the eye of the wearer of the HMD based at least in part a second set of parameters for a second function, wherein the second set of parameters includes the identity of the one or more light sources.
A system comprising:
- a memory comprising computer-executable instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to access the memory and execute the computer-executable instructions to perform operations comprising:
- controlling one or more light sources to illuminate an eye of a wearer of a head-mounted device (HMD) based at least in part a first set of parameters corresponding to a first function, wherein the first set of parameters includes an identity of the one or more light sources;
- and
- controlling the one or more light sources to illuminate the eye of the wearer of the HMD based at least in part a second set of parameters for a second function, wherein the second set of parameters includes the identity of the one or more light sources.
