Abstract

Head-mounted devices (HMDs) include display screens for display of video and/or images. A complex lens is positioned between the display screen and a user's eye to render images shown on the display screen for correct appearance to the user's eye. Changes in relative position or orientation between the display and the lens may cause unwanted changes in the appearance of the images viewed by the user. A process is disclosed to determine changes in relative positions and orientation of the display screen and lens. By determining changes in relative positions and orientation, recalibration of the system may be implemented to continually present images to the user's eye with the proper focus for a more satisfactory user experience.
