New Lens Enables Display Testing from Same Position as the Human Eye

Radiant Vision Systems has introduced a new lens for measuring light, colour and image accuracy of near-eye displays within AR and VR headsets. The lens replicates the size and position of the human eye, allowing ProMetric imaging systems to test across the user’s full field of view.

Simulating the size and position of the human pupil, the AR/VR lens captures up to 120° horizontal, the approximate scope of the human field of vision. The AR/VR lens aperture is located in front of the lens to enable positioning the imaging system within headsets to capture the entire embedded display without occlusion by headset eye lenses.

The lens can be paired with ProMetric 16 and 29-megapixel imaging colourimeters and photometers to capture high-resolution images for pixel and sub-pixel measurements, detecting the smallest defects and anomalies in LED, LCD, OLED and projection microdisplays.

TrueTest Software tools can also be used for AR/VR display measurement, including luminance, chromaticity, contrast, uniformity, pixel or line defects, as well as Slant Edge Contrast (for MTF), Image Distortion, Image Retention and X-Y coordinates in degrees.

With aperture positioned at the front, the AR/VR lens captures the full display field of view without occlusion by the headset hardware, designed to address the limitations of standard measurement lenses.
