METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENHANCING VR EXPERIENCES
A method and apparatus for enhancing a VR experience for a user of a VR headset and HMD. The method includes increasing craniofacial contact of the VR headset and HMD to the user using a face conforming structure. The method also includes maintaining a sense of proprioception of the user via added support for the VR headset and HMD from the front of the user's face using the face conforming structure. The VR headset and HMD is stabilized to the face of the user in all directions using the face conforming structure by allowing the VR headset and HMD to rest on and deform or be supported by the face conforming structure.

BINOCULAR LOUPES
To provide binocular loupes capable of ensuring an optimal focal distance for a user using a simple operation, focus adjustment units disposed in eyepiece units of a pair of left and right loupe bodies of binocular loupes are provided with focus adjustment lenses, and holding rings having magnetic bodies into which the focus adjustment lenses are fitted. The holding rings are mounted in contact with correction lenses constituting optical systems inside the loupe bodies, are drawn and held by magnet rings. By this means, it is possible to readily replace the focus adjustment lenses by mounting the lenses detachably from the loupe bodies, and it is possible to ensure an optimal focal distance.

OPTICAL ATTACHMENT FOR SURGICAL LOUPE GLASSES
An optical attachment for surgical loupe glasses is disclosed. The optical attachment for surgical loupe glasses includes a visor sized to cover at least a portion of a first carrier lens of the surgical loupe glasses. The optical attachment also includes at least one loupe orienting feature defined by the visor.
Safety system, apparatus and method
An apparatus for use with an item of personal protective equipment, where the item of personal protective equipment includes a sensor configured to detect when the personal protective equipment is being worn properly by the user. The apparatus is housed within a hand-held power tool that includes a power circuit. The apparatus includes an electrical isolation device configured to prevent current flow in at least one conductor included in the power circuit; a wireless communication device configured to wirelessly couple to a wireless communication device included in the personal protective equipment. The wireless communication device is configured to receive a wireless signal transmitted from the wireless communication device included the personal protective equipment, the wireless signal providing information concerning whether the user is wearing the item of personal protective equipment properly. The electrical isolation device operates to allow current flow in the at least one conductor when the information provided by the wireless signal indicates that the item of personal protective equipment is being worn properly by the user.

A MAGNETIC EYEGLASSES ATTACHMENT COMPRISING DECORATIVE ELEMENTS AND/OR FUNCTIONAL ELEMENTS INCLUDING LENSES AND METHODS OF PRODUCING SAME
The present invention provides magnetic eyeglasses attachments comprising decorative elements and/or functional elements including lenses. Also provided are methods of producing the magnetic eyeglasses attachments.
Head-Mounted Electronic Device
A head-mounted device may have a head-mounted housing. The housing may include a chassis with left and right openings that overlap respective left and right optical modules that present images eye boxes. Each optical module may have a lens and display that presents an image through the lens. The chassis may have an inner frame and outer frame. A middle portion of the chassis may form a stiffened nose bridge structure. Components in the housing such as a display, a fan housing, a heat sink layer, optical module guide rods, and a rear cover may span the width of the housing and may be attached to edge portions of the chassis, thereby forming a box-shaped structure that provides rigidity and helps prevent housing deformation.
