- Enhancing Panoramic Experience in Head-Mounted Displays: Multiple Optical Systems and Real-Time Display Technology

Description:
In this study, we developed a head-mounted display (HMD) system featuring multiple displays and lenses, combined with software for calibration and real-time image correction. This HMD achieves an expansive horizontal viewing angle of 220° for both eyes and a high resolution of up to 110 pixels per degree. To utilize this enhanced viewing angle and resolution, we created an approximately 32K ultra-high resolution spherical video player and runtime software for game engines. This paper details the hardware configuration and calibration procedures and introduces a preliminary user questionnaire to assess the system performance and user experience.
