    GLASSES WITH OPTICAL DISPLAY SYSTEM
    Technical field of the invention
    The invention relates to the field of optical systems, and more particularly to optical display systems integrated in a helmet or a pair of glasses (called "connected glasses").
    State of the art
    Various models of head-mounted displays are known for viewing a "virtual reality", such as the Oculus Rift ™ system which is commercially available. They are bulky and do not allow a vision of the external environment at the same time. Helmets with a head-up display are also known, which at the same time allow a vision of external reality. Also known are so-called connected glasses with optical display system. The optical principles of these devices are presented in the article "Head-Worn Displays: A Review" by O. Cakmakci and J. Rolland, published in 2006 in Journal of Display Technology 2 (3), p. 199-921. A large number of patent documents propose different configurations.
    These glasses are generally quite bulky and heavy. They represent specific objects which are not suitable for everyday use. Their design differs very significantly from that of standard glasses, whether it be glasses with corrective lenses or sunglasses. For example, documents WO 2016/135 727 (Elbit Systems) and US 2009/0231 722 (Day & Night Display Systems) propose to position the display system horizontally above the root of the nose. This positioning is incompatible with standard glasses. Spectacles with waveguides in the branches have been described in WO 2015/075206 (Cari Zeiss Optics); they require the use of a set of prisms to extract light from spectacle lenses that degrade vision in transparency.
    Several documents describe displays integrated in glasses whose frames are closer to those of common type eyeglasses.
    Document FR 3 017 966 (O. Cecconi) proposes to integrate a micro-screen in each of the two plates intended to hold the frame on the nose; each screen projects an image into the eye of the wearer of the glasses through the inner (rear) lens of the spectacle lens, which must then have a very specific curvature.
    The document US 2003/0184 868 (Geist) describes a system in which the display, arranged on the branch of a pair of glasses, sends an image on a first mirror fixed on one of the plates of the glasses, then on a second mirror attached to the spectacle lens, from where the image is projected into the eye of the user. This second mirror, close to the plate, is far from the center of the lens glass, which requires significant movement of the eyes to look at the image emanating from the system.
    Document US 6,394,601 (Bettinger) describes the diagram of a system comprising a display, fixed on the upper part of the spectacle lens with its emitting surface oriented perpendicular to the plane of the glass, which sends an image to a mirror located in the lower part of the glass, from which the image is reflected in the user's eye. No concrete example is shown, and one might think that the display located at the top edge of the spectacle lenses is quite bulky. This system also has the disadvantage that the image is always perceived at the periphery of the glasses, which requires eye movements which interfere with attentive vision of the environment.
    The problem that the present invention seeks to solve is to present a system of glasses in which the optical system allowing the display is designed to reduce the space occupied by the optical system ensuring the display function, while keeping at best the usual characteristics (size, size, lightness, curvature of the lenses, frame, design) of a pair of standard glasses, and in particular of a pair of sport glasses, and not to interfere with the vision of the environment .
    Object of the invention
    The invention is based on a "pair of spectacles" having at least one optical unit of the spectacle lens type comprising a face defining a passage for the nose of the user and means of attachment to the head of the user. Said optical unit has a front diopter (or "exterior", seen from the front) and a rear diopter (or "interior", directed towards the face of the user). The fixing means may be branches of glasses or any other suitable means.
    According to the invention these objectives are achieved with glasses comprising a face provided with at least one optical unit of the glass type, said face defining a passage for the nose of the user, said passage for the nose being delimited by first and second so-called internal edges of the face, said glasses further comprising:
    - a module for transmitting visual information, comprising an element for transmitting said visual information of the display type,
    - optionally an optical transformation element of said visual information transmitted, in particular of the lens type,
    a geometric reference element for transformed visual information, of the mirror type, capable of returning said transformed visual information to a target area of said glass type optical unit, said emission module being arranged in the lower or upper part of a first internal edge of the face, while the geometric deflection element is disposed in the upper or lower part of said first internal edge, knowing that when said transmission module is disposed in the lower part of said first internal edge of the face, then the geometric deflection element is arranged in the upper part of the first internal edge, and when said transmission module is disposed in the upper part of a first internal edge of the face, then the geometric deflection element is disposed in the lower part of said first internal edge.
    Typically, said first and second internal edges of the face are turned respectively towards first and second lateral edges of the face,
    In one embodiment, the glasses comprise branches mounted on this face (for example on first and second lateral edges of this face), in particular pivotally. In another embodiment they are integrated, in a fixed or pivoting manner, in a head protection helmet, in particular in a bicycle helmet of approved type, or in a motorcycle helmet of approved type.
    Advantageously, the main surface of the display-type emission element is oblique (in particular substantially perpendicular) to the main surface of said face.
    The invention uses the available space close to the joint of the nose to position the emission module and / or the geometrical return element. More particularly, either of these two devices (namely the emission module or the geometrical return element) can be positioned below the brow bone, close to the nasal bone, and the other can be positioned close to the lower lacrimal point. This positioning of the transmission module and of the geometrical return element makes it possible to minimize the bulk and the inconvenience which they generate for the user. This positioning also promotes the projection of a good quality image with a sufficiently wide field, and prevents direct vision from being hampered by the emission module or the geometric reference element.
    Said target area is located on the rear diopter of said optical unit. It is preferably located in the middle part of said first lateral edge, which prevents direct vision of the eye from being hampered by the display.
    In one embodiment, said face comprises two straps and a bridge connecting said straps, each strapping comprising fixing means, in particular removable, for said optical unit of glass type, each strapping comprising a lateral edge and an internal edge, forming respectively one of said lateral edges and one of said internal edges of the face. Said straps connected by the bridge can form a spectacle frame, of known type.
    In a first variant ("variant 1"), said emission module and / or said geometric reference element is mounted on the strapping.
    In a second variant ("variant 2"), said emission module and / or said geometric deflection element is not (are not) mounted on the strapping but fixed (s) directly on said glass.
    In a third variant (“variant 3), which can be combined with variants 1 or 2, said frame is designed to accommodate in each strapping an optical unit of the glass type.
    In a fourth variant ("variant 4"), which can be combined with variants 1 or 2, said frame is designed to contain a single optical unit which extends over the two straps.
    In a fifth variant (“variant 5”), which can be combined with all the preceding variants, the arms and / or the trigger guard are mounted directly on said (or said) optical unit (s).
    In another embodiment, said face comprises a single optical unit, the lateral edges of said optical unit forming said lateral edges of the face, said branches being mounted directly on the lateral edges of said optical unit.
    In particular, the emission module can be mounted on the strapping, in the lower part of a first edge of the face, or directly on the glass-type optical unit. Likewise, the geometric deflection element can be mounted on the strapping, in the lower part of a first edge of the face, or directly on the glass-type optical unit. In one embodiment, the emission module and the geometric deflection element are both mounted on the hoop, is mounted on the hoop, one at the bottom, the other at the top (in a first variant the transmission module is in the upper part, in a second variant it is in the lower part). In another embodiment, the emission module and the geometric deflection element are both mounted on the glass-type optical unit (by assembly techniques known as such), one in part lower, the other in the upper part (in a first variant the transmission module is in the upper part, in a second variant it is in the lower part). In another embodiment, the emission module is mounted on the strapping while the geometric reference element is mounted on the glass-type optical unit, one at the top, the other at the bottom (in a first variant the transmission module is in the upper part, in a second variant it is in the lower part). In yet another embodiment, the emission module is mounted on the glass-type optical unit while the geometric reference element is mounted on the strapping, one at the top, the other at the bottom. (in a first variant the transmission module is in the upper part, in a second variant it is in the lower part)
    Said frame can also include an optical transformation element of said visual information transmitted, in particular of the lens type; one can use several of these elements, for example two.
    Another object of the invention is a frame belonging to glasses according to the invention, said frame comprising two straps and a bridge connecting said straps, each strapping comprising fixing means, in particular removable, for an optical unit of the glass type, said frame further comprising:
    a module for transmitting visual information, comprising an element for transmitting said visual information of display type, an element for optical transformation of said visual information transmitted, in particular of the lens type,
    a geometric reference element for transformed visual information, of the mirror type, capable of returning said transformed visual information to a target area of said glass, said emission module being mounted in the lower or upper part of a first internal edge of the frame, while the geometric return element is mounted in the upper or lower part of said first internal edge, knowing that when said emission module is mounted in the lower part of said first internal edge of the frame, then the return element geometric is mounted in the upper part of the first internal edge, and when said transmission module is mounted in the upper part of a first internal edge of the frame, then the geometric return element is mounted in the lower part of said first internal edge.
    The target area is advantageously located in the middle part of the lateral edge of said first hooping. The main surface of the display-type emission element is substantially perpendicular to the main surface of said first strapping.
    Advantageously, the total field from the screen (represented by the glass-type optical unit) makes it possible to cover several positions of the pupil.
    The image provided by the module for transmitting visual information can be monochrome or full color.
    In an embodiment which can be combined with all the other embodiments and variants, the glasses comprise an electronic ambient light detection system configured to regulate the brightness of the display in real time according to the light environment. of the environment.
    In another embodiment which can be combined with all the other embodiments and variants, the geometric deflection element is mounted on an adjustable support using a control member making it possible to translate the mirror by a few micrometers preferably keeping a constant angle between the display and the surface of the glass-type optical unit.
    As an alternative to the previous embodiment (or less preferably, in addition to the previous embodiment), it is the display (preferably with its element for optical transformation of the visual information) which is mounted on a support. adjustable by means of a control member making it possible to translate the display (preferably with its optical transformation element of visual impairment) so as to be able to adjust the focus point and to adjust the diopter; this at least partially compensates for certain visual defects of the user, such as myopia or hyperopia.
    Generally, in the context of the present invention:
    said optical transformation element of the visual information advantageously comprises at least one lens, preferably of the aspherical type. In a variant, said optical transformation element of the visual information comprises two lenses, preferably aspherical, which reduces the aberration;
    - Said geometric deflection element advantageously comprises at least one mirror, which can in particular be a plane or convex mirror, and which can have a circular, oval, oblong, rectangular or square shape (preferably with rounded edges), knowing that the shapes without angles are preferred because they are less bulky and easier to integrate into the support;
    - Said module for transmitting visual information is preferably an OLED type display, which can be monochrome or color. One can use in particular a micro-display as sold by the company Microoled ™ in Grenoble.
    Said emission module with its geometric reference element can be placed identically on the left or right part of the glasses; based on the user's eye.
    It should be clarified that in the context of the present invention, the term “glass” in the expression “glass-type optical unit” must be understood in the sense of “spectacle lens” and not as the indication of a specific material: in fact, this "glass" can be made of any suitable material, such as so-called organic glass (for example a polycarbonate such as allyl diglycol carbonate (a resin known by the acronym "CR39")), a film plastic, mineral glass, and may or may not allow optical correction, and / or may absorb at least part of the visible spectrum of light (sunglasses) or not, and / or may absorb at least part of ultraviolet rays or not, and / or can be colored or not, knowing that said functionalities (and others, such as the anti-scratch function, the anti-fog function, the polarizing function, the semi-reflecting surface function, can be intrinsic ect to “glass” materials and / or can be obtained with one or more suitable surface coatings. Indeed, the glass-type optical unit used in the context of the present invention can be a type of unit known in eyewear.
    The word "glasses" is used here in the plural to designate an object in the singular (as shown in the figures) or in the plural, this word "glasses" being derived from the expression "a pair of glasses".

    detailed description
    We describe here in greater detail embodiments of the invention, in particular in relation to the figures.
    FIG. 1 shows a front view of an embodiment of the glasses 1 according to the invention, integrated in a helmet 19 of the bicycle helmet type. The optical unit 4 of the spectacle lens type has a passage 13 for the nose; therefore it is closer to the face than the visor in a helmet visor helmet type motorcycle. It is this proximity of the optical unit 4 relative to the eye 7 which creates the need for a compact, space-saving and inconvenient display system. In this embodiment, the return element geometric 3 is a mirror, fixed using a fixing point 9 on the optical unit 4 in the upper part of the optical unit 4, close to the brow bone and the wearer's nose. The emission module 2 is fixed using a fixing point 20 on the optical unit 4, in the lower part of the optical unit 4, close to the nose. An optical transformation element 5 is located in the optical path which leads from the emission module 2 to the geometric reference element 3. The image is projected onto the interior diopter of the optical unit 4 and reflected in the eye of the user.
    In this embodiment, the optical unit 4 is fixed directly to the helmet 19. The fixing means can be a groove provided in the lower part of the helmet, into which the upper edge of the optical unit is inserted over all of its length, or 15 (as in the helmet shown on the community model n 000 175 9550001) a hinge on each side which connects the optical unit 4 in a tilting manner to the helmet 19 so that it can be opened by tilting to the top.
    Figures 2a, 2b, 2c and 2d show another embodiment which is based on a pair of commonly shaped glasses. Figure 2a is a rear view (ie view of the user), Figure 2b a front view, Figure 2d a perspective view from behind, and Figure 2c is similar to Figure 2a, but with arrows representing the optical path of the image representing the visual information emitted, and a gray area representing the target area 6 on which this visual information is projected onto the interior of the optical unit 4a represented by the glass.
    As can be seen in FIG. 2b, the glasses include two straps 15a, b connected by a bridge 16, providing a passage 13 for the wearer's nose. Each strapping 15a, b is provided with a fixing means 11a, b of glasses 1 on the wearer's head, in this case a branch of glasses.
    More precisely, each strapping 15a, b comprises a lateral edge 18a, b and an internal edge 17a, b, a branch 11a, b being mounted on said first and second lateral edges 18a, b of the strapping 15a, b. Each strapping 15a, b comprises a glass type optical unit 4a, b. The straps 15a, b and the glass-type optical unit 4a, b together form the face 10 of the telescope 1.
    According to the invention, the glasses 1 comprise a transmission module 2 and a geometric element for visual information 3 which can be a mirror. The visual information (which will be called in the following also “the image”) emitted by the emission module 2 undergoes an optical transformation via an optical transformation element 5, in this case a lens which it crosses before arriving at said geometric reference element 3. The image is projected onto the internal face of the optical unit 4a of the spectacle lens type, from which it is reflected in the wearer's eye 7 glasses. Said optical transformation element 5 makes it possible, on the one hand, to enlarge the image, and, on the other hand, to correct the optical aberrations after reflection on the inner face of the spectacle lens 4a. Said optical transformation element 5 can be a lens (or several lenses positioned between the emission module 2 and the geometric reference element 3), or it can be integrated into said geometric reference element 3 which can be an aspherical mirror .
    The geometric return element 3 can be fixed to the optical unit 4a using a fixing point 9.
    In the embodiment of FIG. 2, the emission module 2 is mounted in the lower part of a first internal edge 14a of the face 10, while the geometric return element 3 is mounted in the upper part of said first internal edge. 14a.
    In the case where the glasses have a frame having a strapping, the internal edges 17a, b of the strapping may coincide with the internal edges 14a, b of the face, and the lateral edges 18a, b of the strapping may coincide with the lateral edges 12a , b from the front. The branches 11a, b can be mounted on the first and second lateral edges 12a, b of the face or on the first or second lateral edges 18a, b of the strapping, or can be fixed at another location on the face 10, in particular on the strapping 15a, b or directly on the glass type optical unit 4.
    The electronic components and cards for controlling the visual information transmission module 2 and / or the electrical energy storage elements (typically one or more batteries, not shown in the figures) which supply (s) the electronics for controlling the emission module 2 and / or said emission module can be housed in an electronic unit 8 and / or in one and / or the other of the branch 11 a, b of glasses and connected by a cable flexible (commonly called a "flex"), not shown in the figures.
    In an embodiment which can be combined with all the other embodiments described here, said face 10 and / or said glass-type optical unit 4 comprises a semi-transparent photovoltaic cell which supplies, directly or via the batteries , the control electronics and / or said visual information transmission module 2. Such semi-transparent photovoltaic cells are known in the state of the art.
    Figure 3 shows schematically and simplified the 2D geometric optics of the display system of the glasses according to the invention, for different settings of the emission module 1 (with its optical transformation element 5) and of the element geometric reference 3 (Figures 3a and 3b). During these adjustments, the distance d between the point of impact P1 on the geometric deflection element 3 of the incident optical ray coming from the visual information transmission element 2, on the one hand, and the point of departure P2 of the optical ray reflected by the optical unit 4 advantageously remains constant, and the angle of reflection on the optical unit 4 advantageously remains constant. This figure illustrates the possibility of modifying the positioning of the emission module 2 during the design of the glasses or during the fine adjustment of the position of the point P2 on the optical unit 4. Advantageously, during these adjustments the length d1 does not not change significantly, so as not to change the focus of the image from module 2.
    Figure 4 shows schematically and simplified the 3D geometric optics of the display system of the glasses according to the invention, with two different views (Figures 4a and 4b). It illustrates the role of the optical transformation element 5 which is here a lens, but which may, in a variant (illustrated in FIG. 5), include two lenses.
    FIG. 5 partially shows glasses according to the invention (the arms and the strapping have been omitted so as not to overload the figure) in which the optical transformation element of the visual information generated by the emission module 2 includes two lenses 5a, b. Figure 5b is rotated 45 ° relative to Figure 5a.
    Figure 6 shows the glasses of Figure 2 in which the target area 6 is offset. In figure 6a the target area 6 is shifted upwards (target area 6 ') or downwards (target area 6 ”), in figure 6b it is moved laterally outwards (target area 6”') or inward (target area 6 ””). We can also consider a trip that combines these two types of trip. The choice of the positioning of the target area 6 on the surface of the optical unit 4 is made according to the intended use of the glasses. The adjustment of this position can be done at the factory or by the optician, or by the user himself. In a particular embodiment, the geometric deflection element 3 is mounted on an adjustable support (not shown in the figures) by means of a control member (not shown in the figures) making it possible to translate said deflection element geometric 3 of a few micrometers, preferably keeping a constant angle between the display 2 and the surface of the optical unit 4 of the glass type.
    FIG. 7 shows glasses according to the invention in which the configuration of the display 2 and of the mirror 3 is reversed with respect to the embodiment of FIG. 2:
    the display 2 is located in the upper part (close to the brow bone), the mirror 3 in the lower part.
    The glasses according to the invention can be produced with or without strapping, or with a partial strapping (for example only at the top or only at the bottom). If the glasses do not have a rim, the face 10 is formed by the optical unit 4a, b of the glass type, as in FIG. 1. The bridge 16 can be present or not, and the optical unit 4 can be constituted by a single piece which leaves the passage 13 for the nose, as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1. Likewise, the frame may have plates (not shown in the figures) close to the passage 13 for the nose, to stabilize the glasses on the wearer's nose; these plates are then part of the face 10. All these types of glasses and frames are known as such, and it is a characteristic (and an advantage) of the present invention that it can be produced with frames of the type current, or at least with frames that are reminiscent, on an aesthetic level, of common type frames. The main constraints are as follows: the frame or face must effectively allow the emission module and the geometrical return element to be placed at the top or bottom of an internal edge of the face, and the glasses must be adapted to accommodate, on the one hand, an electrical energy storage element and, on the other hand, the electronic control of the transmission module. To achieve these goals, it may for example be necessary to choose branches 11 of particular shape and / or size, making it possible to arrange a housing for accommodating said energy storage element and / or said control electronics, and / or provide an electronic unit 8.
    There can be many variations in the execution of the invention; these variants can be combined with all the embodiments described here, and can be combined with one another.
    By way of example, optical layers deposited on the surfaces of the geometric reference element 3 and / or of the spectacle lens (dichroic or anti-reflective type) can improve the reflection rate as a function of the emission wavelengths of the display and reduce stray reflections.
    To increase the contrast of the system, the optical layers on the inner surface of the glass can be completed by a reflective layer of complementary color on the external face of the glass, and / or by an absorbing layer of complementary color, and / or by the choice a glass that absorbs the complementary color. This helps reduce unwanted reflections in the glass, and increases the contrast. In the same way, the glass can be tinted in the complementary color to obtain the same effect, and / or to add a function of sunglasses.
    The curves of the internal and external surface of the lens can be adjusted so as to bring an ophthalmological correction to the wearer of glasses. The internal surface allows to correct the vision of the virtual image projected by the display device, and the combination of the internal and external surface allows to correct the natural vision of the wearer of glasses.
    The mirror can be of any shape, but we prefer shapes without angles, in particular the circular or oval shape, leaving a free field sufficient for the reflection of the image in order to reduce its size and to be better integrated into the support.
    It is possible to provide a means of adjusting the focal point between the mirror and the display with a mechanical support of the mirror, fixed in an adjustable manner on the support of the frame. Thus, by screwing or unscrewing the mirror we allow the mirror to be translated by a few micrometers while keeping an identical angle between the display and the glasses.
    It is also possible (as an alternative or in addition to the previous embodiment) to provide a means of adjusting the focus point and the diopter with a mechanical support of the display, fixed in an adjustable manner on the support of the frame. . Thus, by screwing or unscrewing the display (and preferably simultaneously the lens or lenses, mounted on the same block as the display), the display (and its lens (s)) is enabled to be translated (s) by a few micrometers, so that the focus point can be adjusted and the diopter adjusted; this at least partially compensates for certain visual defects of the user, such as myopia or hyperopia.
    A system can be provided to regulate the brightness of the display. This system can be combined with an electronic ambient light capture system, configured to regulate the brightness of the display in real time according to the external environment.
    In an exemplary embodiment, a base 8 type sport glasses frame was used, as shown in FIG. 2. The emission module (a high luminance monochrome OLED micro display with a spectrum centered on 530 nm ) was mounted in the lower part of the first internal edge, the mirror in the upper part of said first internal edge. The image of the display passes through the correction lens and is then returned by the plane mirror to the spectacle lens which reflects up to 20% of the incident light depending on the surface deposition applied. The micro display with high luminance (up to 20,000 Cd / m 2 ) and high contrast (1: 970,000) keeps the display bright enough to be visible to the user even in an outdoor environment. The high contrast keeps a very dark background (0.003 Cd / m 2 ) outside of the elements displayed on the spectacle lens.
    It is also possible to use other curvatures of glasses, for example base 6, or base 9 or other curvatures and shapes.
    You can also use a color OLED display. In one embodiment, sports glasses of the type used in FIGS. 2 and 6 have used a 3.1 mm x 3.6 mm surface color OLED display with 256 x 300 pixels and a circular mirror of a 10 mm diameter. As optical transformation element 5, two aspherical lenses made of optical polyester resin OKP4 were used (optical index n = 1.607 at a wavelength of 546.1 nm). Figure 8 shows the projection of a quadratic grid with a total field of 10 ° displayed by the display at the nominal point of the pupil (Figure 8b), at a lateral distance of - 2 mm (Figure 8a) and at a lateral distance of + 2 mm (figure 8c). Note that the image shows very little distortion in the nominal position, and hardly degrades when the position moves ± 2 mm. Such a display system is of very satisfactory quality for displaying alphanumeric signs (text, sequences of numbers representing the time, etc.) and images. In this embodiment, the position of the display center is approximately 16 ° horizontal convergence and approximately 6 ° elevation above the horizon. In this position the user keeps a good direct visibility of his environment without being bothered by the display, and can also easily recognize the alphanumeric sequences and pictograms which give him information on his speed, elevation, GPS coordinates etc (see Figure 9 for an example of display, reproduced here in black and white).
    The glasses according to the invention have many applications and uses, in particular in the professional field, in the field of sport, and in urban and daily life. These different applications may require an adaptation of the frame of the glasses, of the shape of the lenses, of the precise location of the emission module 2 and of the geometric reference element 3 (in the high or base position with respect to the internal edge in particular ), the location of the target area 6, the optical adjustment (apparent distance from the projection). They may also require the interfacing of the glasses with an external microprocessor, for example by a wireless communication channel (for example according to the Bluetooth ™ standard).
    In the professional field, the glasses 1 according to the invention can be used by people performing different tasks in a production workshop, in a packaging workshop, in a warehouse, in a logistics environment: here it is a question of transmitting information to the user and / or to guide him during the performance of his tasks while leaving him both hands free. For example, when the user travels in a warehouse with a trolley to pick up packages from different storage stations, the glasses according to the invention can display the package code and / or the location of the next station. For a production operator, the glasses can display a procedure to be followed to execute operations, or parameters to be respected, or instructions or warning messages to be taken into account.
    The glasses 1 according to the invention can be used by medical or paramedical personnel in a health establishment to display useful information to them (product lists, patient information, analysis results, physical, chemical or physico-chemical parameters important, instructions) without having to use their hands to handle paper documents or display screens.
    The glasses 1 according to the invention can be used by aviation personnel to display information that is important for piloting the aircraft. For example, this information can come from the Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS), It can also be used by emergency response personnel ( firefighters, police, technical assistance) to notify them of information visually.
    The glasses 1 according to the invention can be worn by sportsmen (for example during running, cycling, skiing or snowboarding) to display useful information, for example their heart rate, speed, distance traveled or distance to go, chronometric, altimetric, geographic, topographical, etc. information, including directions and GPS data, as well as tourist information (e.g. relating to the station ski: closing time of a lift, waiting time etc.). For diving masks, in addition to the heart rate and timing information, it is the diving depth, and information relating to decompression stops which can advantageously be displayed.
    Another use of the glasses 1 according to the invention in a sporting context is the use by sports referees, for example between the central referee and the assistant referee.
    In urban or daily life, the glasses 1 according to the invention can in particular be used to display chronometric and geographic information, GPS information, meteorological information, information on air pollution (pollution index), on tourist points of interest (monuments, water points, availability of toilets). The glasses according to the invention can also be used in the context of games, in particular in augmented reality (such as Pokémon ™ GO for example), and to display information related to social networks (such as: Twitter ™,
    Facebook ™, Instagram ™, Snapchat ™, WeChat ™, WhatsApp ™, Line ™) or notification or content of emails and sms messages.
