58‐2: Objective Metrics and Theoretical Model for Evaluating the Spatial Reality Reproduction Performance of Head‐Mounted Display

This paper explores the issue of spatial reality reproduction (SRR) that arises from the inherent differences between the human eye and the camera viewpoint in video see‐through (VST) of the head‐mounted display. We present a set of indicators and methods to objectively evaluate the performance of SRR. These indicators include scaling, positioning, distortion, motion distortion, and stereo depth. Additionally, we delineate the corresponding measurement equipment and methods. A comprehensive evaluation of these indicators can help us establish a theoretical model, which may incorporate an appropriate weighting for each indicator. This model could facilitate the calculation of the final score through a weighted average, enabling us to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the headset's SRR performance.
