Heat mounted display having an inter-lens structure disposed between the right-eye lens and left-eye lens
A head mounted display is worn on a head of a user. The head mounted display includes a display device configured to display image; a casing that houses the display device; a right-eye lens and a left-eye lens attached to the casing; and an inter-lens structure disposed between the right-eye lens and the left-eye lens. The head mounted display causes the user to recognize a color of at least a part of the inter-lens structure as a color that is equal to or brighter than a skin color when the user wears the head mounted display.
Deflector, display device, and method of manufacturing deflector
A deflector includes a support substrate including a curved portion that is curved along a first direction intersecting a thickness direction and that includes a convex curved surface convex to a first side in the thickness direction, a holographic element laminated on the curved portion, and a holder configured to hold the support substrate. The holographic element is configured to deflect light incident on the curved portion at least in the first direction. The holder includes a first fixing portion fixed to, in a thickness direction, a first supported portion that is an end portion of the curved portion of the support substrate on a first side in the first direction, and a second fixing portion fixed to, in the thickness direction, a second supported portion that is an end portion of the curved portion on a second side in the first direction by adhesive bonding and the like.
Wearable display apparatus
Provided is a wearable display apparatus including a display element, an electronic circuit board, a circuit board holder configured to hold an electronic circuit board, and an exterior case configured to accommodate the display element and the circuit board, wherein an inner seal structure is provided in a location where the circuit board holder faces an opposing connecting portion of the exterior case from an inner side thereof.
Eyewear use detection
Eyewear including a support structure defining a region for receiving a head of a user. The support structure supports optical elements, electronic components, and a use detector. The use detector is coupled to the electronic components and is positioned to identify when the head of the user is within the region defined by the support structure. The electronic components monitor the use detector and transition from a first mode of operation to a second mode of operation when the use detector senses the head of the user in the region.

Removable frames for head-mounted display systems
In one example, an apparatus may include a frame that includes an optical component configured for use with a near-eye display that is part of a head-worn display system. The frame magnetically attaches to the head-worn display system, and when the frame is attached to the head-worn display system, the frame may align the optical component for use with the near-eye display. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
SEE-THROUGH COMPUTER DISPLAY SYSTEMS
An apparatus includes an eye cover adapted to be removably mounted on a head-worn computer with a see-through computer display and a flexible audio headset mounted to the eye cover. The flexible audio headset is mounted to the eye cover with a magnetic connection.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ALIGNMENT OF OPTICAL COMPONENTS
Head-mounted displays may include a frame, a light projector coupled to the frame, a waveguide configured to direct images from the light projector to a user’s eye, and at least one flexure element coupled to the frame and physically supporting the waveguide in the frame. Various other methods, systems, and devices are also disclosed.
Face seal for head-mounted display
A head-mounted display to be worn by a user includes a housing, a compressible material, and a support member. The compressible material is connected to the housing and is configured for contact with the user. The support member is disposed in the compressible material. The support member is movably connected to the housing.
Electronic Devices With Biased Guide Rails
A head-mounted device may be provided with displays. The displays and lenses through which images on the displays are viewed may be mounted in optical modules. Positioners may be used to move the optical modules towards and away from each other to adjust the head-mounted device to accommodate different user interpupillary distances. To support and guide the optical modules, the optical modules may be slidably mounted to guide rails. The guide rails may be biased against the optical modules using biasing systems. By using the biasing systems, misalignment between the optical modules can be reduced. If desired, guide rail sensors may be used to monitor the positions of the guide rails. In some configurations, the optical modules may be mounted to the guide rails using kinematic mounting.
