Description
FIELD

The present disclosure relates to field of Augmented Reality (AR) glasses technology, particularly to a self-power-generation structure and an Augmented Reality glass.


BACKGROUND

With a development of science and technology, sales and applications of AR glasses have grown in recent years. At present, existing AR glasses have a large power consumption, but a battery of the existing AR glass may not be able to support the large power consumption of the existing AR glass for a long period of time. So, the AR glasses needs to be charged frequently.


The existing AR glasses applies a contact charging mode, such as via a connector. The contact charging mode requires a user to plug the connector, the contact charging mode is inconvenience and has a low charging efficiency. When the user does not wear the AR glass, the AR glass is usually stored in locations, such in as a handbag, where the AR glass can't be charges. In addition, the contact charging mode may cause abrasions of a charging port easily, resulting sparks.
