Therefore, the side of the frame 100 of the glasses body 10 is provided with a control module 11 , and the control module 11 includes a storage unit 110 and a processing unit 111 . The storage unit 110 stores at least one preset image 1100 , such as virtual images of people, animals, plants, or vehicles, or virtual images of natural scenery. The processing unit 111 is connected to the storage unit 110 and can receive at least one preset image 1100 . At least one shielding display module 12 is disposed on one side of one lens 101 of the glasses main body 10 and connected to the control module 11 to be controlled by the control module 11 .

As shown in FIG. 2, when the user wears the head-mounted display 1 for use, when the processing unit 111 receives the trigger signal 1110 and generates the first control signal 1111 according to the received trigger signal 1110, the processing unit 111 will convert the first control signal to 1111 and at least one preset image 1100 are sent to at least one shielded display module 12 . Next, at least one shielding display module 12 will be controlled by the first control signal 1111 to assume a semi-transparent state, and display at least one preset image 1100 in this state, so that the user can watch the virtual image and the real image at the same time 2, that is, the user can watch the image combined with the virtual image and the real image 2.

On the contrary, when the processing unit 111 receives the trigger signal 1110 and generates the second control signal 1112 according to the received trigger signal 1110, the processing unit 111 will transmit the second control signal 1112 and at least one preset image 1100 to at least one shielding display module 12 . Afterwards, at least one masking display module 12 is controlled by the second control signal 1112 to be in a non-see-through state, and in this state displays at least one preset image 1100 , as shown in FIG. 3 . At this time, the user can only watch the virtual image, but cannot watch the real image 2 around him. Therefore, the head-mounted display 1 of the present invention can provide the user with the convenience of watching a combination of a virtual image and a real image 2 , or viewing only a virtual image.

As shown in the figure, the head-mounted display in this embodiment is similar to that of the head-mounted display in the first embodiment described above, so it will not be repeated here. However, it is worth mentioning that, in this embodiment, preferably, the control module 11 may further include a sensing unit 112, and when sensing that the illuminance of external light is lower than or equal to a preset illuminance value, the sensing unit 112 then A trigger signal 1110 for low illumination is generated. Wherein, the processing unit 111 can correspondingly generate the first control signal 1111 according to the low-illuminance trigger signal 1110 .

On the contrary, when the sensing unit 112 senses that the illuminance of the external light is higher than the preset illuminance value, the sensing unit 112 generates a high-illuminance trigger signal 1110 .

The processing unit 111 generates the second control signal 1112 after receiving the high-illuminance trigger signal 1110 . Afterwards, at least one shielding display module 12 is controlled by the second control signal 1112 to be in a non-see-through state, and to display at least one preset image 1100 on itself.
