Electronic Device With Optical Sensor Interference Mitigation Structures
20200064628 · 2020-02-27 ·

An electronic device such as a head-mounted device may have a transparent member supported by head-mounted support structures. Optical sensors such as time-of-flight sensors and other optical sensors may have light-emitting components and light-detecting components. A stray light blocking structure may be formed in the transparent member. The stray light blocking structure may be configured to block stray light that is traveling laterally through an interior portion of the polymer layer. This prevents the stray light from being received by the light-detecting detecting device. The stray light blocking structure may formed by providing the polymer layer with light redirecting structures such as protrusions and/or recesses. Light-absorbing coatings and/or patterned surfaces such as textured surfaces may be incorporated into the stray light blocking structure.

Head-mounted display unit and head-mounted display fixing stand

Physical burden when a head-mounted display is mounted to the head of a user for use is reduced. A head-mounted display unit includes a head-mounted display, and a fixing stand configured so as to enable the attachment and detachment of the head-mounted display, and to enable the head-mounted display to be mounted in a fixed state. The fixing stand includes a base member, a support column projecting perpendicularly upwards from the base member, a pedestal mount attached to an upper end portion of the support column, a retaining member attached to the pedestal mount, a clamping implement, and a chin rest. The fixing stand is configured such that the head-mounted display is detachably mounted to the retaining member using the clamping implement.
