AR/VR Testing Lenses: Professional Optical Evaluation Solutions Purpose-Built for NED Testing
AR/VR lenses are core components of professional optical test equipment for near-eye displays (NEDs) in head-mounted devices. They simulate the human eye to objectively evaluate microdisplay imaging. They are designed specifically for display quality inspection of AR devices themselves—independent of whether the user is nearsighted—with the goal of faithfully reproducing the optical state as seen by the human eye.
What Are the Design Challenges?
AR/VR test lenses must simultaneously meet multiple optical requirements within a limited volume:
Ensure image clarity from center to edge while fully covering the display field of view.
Suppress ghosting caused by stray light while maintaining chromaticity measurement accuracy.
Control optical axis consistency to avoid deviations during binocular evaluation.
These requirements constrain one another, making them difficult for traditional lenses to balance.
Our Design Breaks Through These Bottlenecks:
Near-Diffraction-Limit Performance: MTF design values are close to the diffraction limit.
Axial Chromatic Aberration Correction: Axial chromatic aberration is corrected to within the Airy disk at different object distances.
Field Curvature and Resolution Consistency: MTF resolution remains excellent from center to edge at different object distances, with well-corrected field curvature and high image consistency.
Mass Production Controllability: Shipping standards are controlled at approximately 90% of design values, ensuring yield while still delivering actual imaging performance close to theoretical limits.
Wide Object Distance Adaptation: Object distance support ranges from +200mm to +∞ and from -∞ to -200mm, covering a wide range of test distances with stable imaging at different object distances.
This human-eye-inspired test optical system is purpose-built for the NED testing requirements of the latest waveguide AR glasses. It balances wide object distance adaptation, chromatic aberration correction, and mass production consistency—making AR display quality evaluation clear, consistent, and reliable.
