    Area of Science:

    • Optics
    • Display Technology
    • Wearable Technology

    Background:

    • Traditional head-mounted displays (HMDs) often suffer from vergence-accommodation conflict, leading to visual discomfort.
    • Achieving multi-focal capabilities in a compact, wearable form factor presents significant engineering challenges.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose and demonstrate a novel three-dimensional (3D) head-mounted display (HMD) with integrated multi-focal and wearable functions.
    • To investigate and compensate for optical aberrations in a polarization-dependent optical system for improved image quality.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized polarization-dependent optical path switching in a Savart plate to achieve multi-focal functionality.
    • Employed a high pixel density micro-display optically duplicated in the longitudinal direction based on polarization state.
    • Investigated optical aberrations using ray tracing and implemented compensation strategies for astigmatism and lateral chromatic aberration.

    Main Results:

    • Developed a compact HMD module (40x90x40 mm, 131g) with a wearable form factor.
    • Achieved real-time synchronization at 30 Hz, creating two focal planes at 640 mm and 900 mm.
    • Demonstrated augmented reality functionality by combining duplicated panels with a beam splitter, confirming multi-focal capability and integration of real-world scenes with 3D images.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed Savart plate-based HMD system effectively provides multi-focal and wearable functions with a compact design.
    • Optical aberration compensation methods ensure high-quality 3D image perception, overcoming limitations of previous designs.
    • The demonstrated prototype validates the feasibility of advanced augmented reality experiences through integrated multi-focal and real-world scene display.
