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.

A device including a frame and an eyepiece is provided. The eyepiece includes a front glass, a rear glass, and an active element sandwiched between the front glass and the rear glass. The active layer is electrically activated, via an interconnect, by a flex circuit enclosed between a top portion of the frame and a cap, the flex circuit including a memory and a processor. A method for assembling the above device is also provided.

The present invention relates to a head-up display device with reflection sheet, the only component left on the windshield after being detached is a simple transparent sheet by using the detachable structure, so as to reduce line-of-sight obstruction for drivers to get a better field and quality of view, to thereby improve driving safety.

A head mounted display for a user that uses a display screen to produce images. The head mounted display includes a frame. The frame has a pair of lenses. The pair of lenses has their optical centers biased away from their physical centers. The head mounted display includes a strap which attaches to the frame and fits about the user's head to hold the frame to the user's head. A method for viewing images by a user.

An image display apparatus mountable on a mobile object includes an image light generator and a transmissive member. The image light generator is configured to generate image light and emit the image light to a transmission and reflection member mounted on the mobile object. The transmissive member is disposed in an optical path of the image light between the image light generator and the transmission and reflection member. The transmissive member is configured to transmit the image light from the image light generator. The transmissive member has a cross section with a predetermined curve, the cross section being orthogonal to a predetermined direction inclined with reference to a virtual plane orthogonal to a horizontal direction of the mobile object.

A head-mounted display apparatus includes a support member that supports a first display unit and a second display unit that display images, an extension member extending in a second direction intersecting a first direction along a direction from the first display unit to the second display unit, and a coupling member coupling the support member to the extension member, in which the support member has a first coupled portion coupled to the extension member, the extension member has a second coupled portion coupled to the support member, and a thickness (width) of the first coupled portion is thicker (wider) than a thickness (width) of the second coupled portion in a third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction.

An improved VR headset accessory, and in particular, a case for carrying the VR headset that has advanced functionality necessary for facilitating portable maintenance and usage. For example, the accessory houses additional batteries and/or power source connections for charging the VR headset as well as ancillary devices for controlling the display of content in the VR headset to create a controlled viewing environment. The accessory also houses a communication component for sharing content with a remote server.

Multiple head-mounted devices and/or other electronic devices can operate in concert to provide multiple users with shared experiences and content enjoyment. Such operations can be facilitated by a connection between multiple head-mounted devices and/or other electronic devices to allow different users to receive content. Such a connection can be made possible by a connector that directly and physically connects head-mounted devices and/or other electronic devices to each other and transmits signals there between. By providing a physical connection, the signals can be efficiently transmitted even when other types of connections (e.g., wireless) are not available

A head-mountable device can include adaptable components, which move to comfortably engage the face of the user and to exclude light from an external environment. A head-mountable device can include a light seal element that includes discrete portions that rotate relative to each other and to a user. Such mobility allows the portions to be oriented with respect to corresponding regions of the face, so that an engagement surface of each portion directly engages the corresponding region of the face to maximize the surface area of contact.

A mirror holding structure includes a mirror holder that holds a mirror with an adhesive member having elasticity interposed therebetween. The mirror holder includes an elastic part that is in contact with the mirror and elastically deforms. A spring constant of the elastic part is greater than a spring constant of the adhesive member.
