An immersive headset device is provided that includes a display portion and a body portion. The display portion may include microdisplays having a compact size. The microdisplays may be movable (e.g., rotational) relative to the body portion and can be moved (e.g., rotated) between a flipped-up position and a flipped-down position. In some instances, when the microdisplays are flipped up, the headset provides an augmented reality (AR) mode to a user, and when the microdisplays are flipped down, the headset provide a virtual reality (VR) mode to the user. In certain implementations, the headset includes an electronics source module to provide power and/or signal to the microdisplays. The electronics source module can be attached to a rear of the body portion in order to provide advantageous weight distribution about the head of the user.

An apparatus includes a device including a screen; a ledge against which the device lays; a connecting arm; and a partially transparent mirror coupled to the ledge via the connecting arm, where the mirror includes a center and two outer lateral edges and is structured and arranged relative to the ledge such that the screen faces the mirror and a center of the mirror is further from the screen than each of the two outer lateral edges, a part of the mirror that is adjacent the first of the two outer lateral edges thereby reflecting a part of the screen that is opposite the second of the two outer lateral edges, and a part of the mirror that is opposite the second of the two outer lateral edges thereby reflecting a part of the screen that is opposite the first of the two outer lateral edges.

A method of tracking wearable sensors attached to respective body parts of a user includes acquiring multiple yaw measurements from a wearable sensor by measurement circuitry within the wearable sensor, calculating errors in the yaw measurements based on comparisons of the yaw measurements with one or more yaw references, and correcting the yaw measurements by removing the errors.

The invention relates to a housing for a head-up display of a motor vehicle, which housing has an inner wall that at least partially delimits an internal space for an imaging projection device to project a virtual image in a beam path onto a reflection surface in an internal space of the motor vehicle. The housing is characterized by at least one reflective deflection region of the internal wall to deflect the beam path of the imaging projection device. The deflection region may have a metallized or metallizing layer which is formed via the application of a metallizing, amorphous substance or material onto a surface of a base body of the inner wall, said surface facing toward the internal space. The invention furthermore relates to a corresponding head-up display, a correspondingly embodied motor vehicle, and a method to provide a housing according to the invention.

A head mount display for use with a virtual reality system allows for an automatic adjustment of an inter-lens distance based on a particular user's inter-pupillary distance (IPD). The IPD for the user is measured, for example by taking an image of the user in a controlled environment and calculating the distance between the user's pupils within the image. Once the IPD is known, a desired inter-lens distance for the particular user may be defined based on user IPD. A computing device in communication with a head mount display unit may automatically adjust the inter-lens distance to match the desired inter-lens distance. A user's IPD and desired inter-lens distance may be stored for the user in a user account. As such, whenever the user participates in the virtual reality system, a head mount display used by the user may be configured with the user's desired inter-lens distance.

A wearable display apparatus includes a display for providing viewable images. A display support assembly can support the display. The display support assembly can be self centering and telescoping for adjusting the position of the display for viewing by a user. The display support assembly can include right side and left side arm members spaced apart from each other, and a flexibly resilient support member to which the display is mounted between the arm members. The support member can be telescopically mounted to the arm members. The support member can have flexibly resilient right and left side portions secured to the display. Each side portion can be slidably mounted to a respective arm member for telescoping. The support member can have a material cross section that provides stiffness for supporting the display when in a generally horizontal orientation for viewing while also providing resilient flexibility between the arm members to self center the display between the arm members with changes in distances between the arm members.

A head-up display system for a vehicle having a windshield is provided. The head-up display system includes a first image generation device and an optical system. The first image generation device is configured to provide a first light. The optical system is configured to reflect the first light. A first distance between the first image generation device and the optical system is greater than a second distance between the optical system and the windshield.

A display device includes: a first closed-bottom lens tube including a first display part on the closed bottom for displaying a first image; a second closed-bottom lens tube including a second display part on the closed bottom for displaying a second image; an adjustment mechanism including a first rod that extends from the first lens tube and a second rod that extends from the second lens tube and is rotatably connected to the first rod; and an image outputter that outputs the first and second images to the first and second display parts, respectively. The image outputter, in accordance with the angle of rotation of the first and second rods of the adjustment mechanism, controls and outputs the first and second images to bring the horizontal directions thereof closer to the arrangement direction of the first and second lens tubes.

By rotating each optical member including an image display apparatus by a rotation unit, it is possible to change an aspect ratio and display an image. At this time, the rotation unit rotates a stop having an opening with a shape corresponding to the shape of an emission surface of image light in a video display element which is a video element of the image display apparatus along with the image display apparatus. Accordingly, even when an image with a horizontally long aspect ratio is shown and even when an image with a vertically long aspect ratio is shown, occurrence of stray light can be suppressed. Thus, guiding of the image light by a light-guiding optical system can be maintained in a good state, and thus good image display can be realized.
