Abstract

Examples are disclosed herein that relate to calibrating a user's eye for a stereoscopic display. One example provides, on a head-mounted display device including a see-through display, a method of calibrating a stereoscopic display for a user's eyes, the method including for a first eye, receiving an indication of alignment of a user-controlled object with a first eye reference object viewable via the head-mounted display device from a perspective of the first eye, determining a first ray intersecting the user-controlled object and the first eye reference object from the perspective of the first eye, and determining a position of the first eye based on the first ray. The method further includes repeating such steps for a second eye, determining a position of the second eye based on a second ray, and calibrating the stereoscopic display based on the position of the first eye and the position of the second eye.
