Abstract
The invention relates to a method for generating and displaying a virtual object to an individual user by an optical system consisting of gaze-tracking glasses and at least one display unit connected to the gaze-tracking glasses, the display unit having a first display, the gaze-tracking glasses having a first eye-tracking camera, the first display being arranged in a first viewing region of the gaze-tracking glasses. According to the invention, the optical system is adapted to an individual user, a first target value for adaptation of a display control unit of the display unit for controlling the first display being determined, a current viewing direction of the first eye being determined by the gaze-tracking glasses, a virtual object being generated and, taking account of the first target value, the virtual object being displayed in the first display at a position in the determined viewing direction of the first eye.
