  • Patent number: 10921602
    Abstract: A head-mounted device (HMD) whose circumference is dynamically adjustable to conform to different head sizes and shapes is disclosed herein. The HMD includes a front-end and back-end housing. The front-end housing includes a first compute unit, and the back-end housing includes a second compute unit. The HMD also includes two adjustable flex fit arms that connect the front-end housing to the back-end housing. The HMD has an enclosed rounded boundary that is placeable around a user's head. The HMD also includes a nested flexible cable ribbon, which is nested within a cavity of one of the arms and which includes both a static bend and a dynamic bend. The bend radius for the dynamic bend is larger than the bend radius of the static bend. The dynamic bend enables the nested flexible cable ribbon to expand or contract when the circumference of the enclosed rounded boundary changes.

  • Publication number: 20170353714
    Abstract: A self-calibrating display system includes a stereoscopic, near-eye display device, a docking unit, and one or more cameras. The display device includes one or more coupling structures, in addition to one or more microprojectors configured to project a right calibration image and a left calibration image. The docking unit includes one or more complementary coupling structures, each being releasably lockable to a coupling structure of the display device, to prevent movement of the display device relative to the docking unit. The one or more cameras are configured to acquire a secondary image of the right calibration image and a secondary image of the left calibration image.
