Abstract:
1. A method for improving vision of a low-vision person, comprising the steps of: initiating a recording mode recording an image by means of an image recording device within said recording mode, intermediately storing said image within an image memory within said recording mode, sensing movement of the head of the person, modifying said image within said image memory as a function of said movement to create a modified image within said recording mode, initiating a display mode at a distance in time with regard to said image recording mode, said distance in time being manually adjusted by said person, transferring said modified image to an image display device being mounted to a head of said person within said display mode, and presenting said modified image to eyes of said person by means of said image display device within said display mode wherein during recording of a text presented in lines, said text is read line by line into said image memory within said recording mode and is concurrently aligned along said direction of said lines, and further wherein said recorded text is integrated with a gray scale value thereof line by line along a direction intended for a display of said text, a position of said lines being varied stepwise orthogonally to said direction, said recorded text after having been integrated being rotated within a plane thereof as long as and with said integration being repeated, until a transition of said integrals of said gray scale value along said lines in a transition from a text line to an adjoining space has a maximum steepness.
