Abstract: An apparatus for electro-optically reading targets is mounted in an orientation on a head of a human operator having eyes for directly viewing a calibration target along a sightline. A light source directs a visible light beam away from the apparatus. A calibration assembly adjustably moves the light source, no matter the orientation of the apparatus, to visually position the light beam on the calibration target that is simultaneously being directly viewed along the sightline in a calibration mode of operation. A data capture assembly is operative, subsequent to the calibration mode, for electro-optically reading the targets on which the light beam is visually positioned in a reading mode of operation.

Abstract: Modular heads up display (HUD) assemblies are disclosed herein. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes a housing to carry an image generator; a display surface extending from a first side of the housing; and a mating surface along a second side of the housing opposing the first side of the housing, the mating surface to removably couple a head mount to the housing.

Abstract: A head-mounted computing device is described. The head-mounted computing device includes a processor. Coupled to the processor is a memory for storing a software application for execution on the processor. A battery provides current to the processor. A frame supports the processor, the memory, and the battery. The frame includes a mechanical coupling feature and an electrical connector for receiving a peripheral.

Abstract: A headset is described. The headset includes a headset insert worn on a head of a user. The headset insert includes a first connector having a first mechanical coupler. The first connector is configured to mate in at least two different orientations with a second connector having a second mechanical coupler. A frame includes the second connector that mates with the first connector. The frame is adapted to receive the headset insert in at least two different orientations.

Abstract: A system comprises an accessory, a mobile unit module, and a battery pack module. The accessory is worn one of on and near a portion of a body of a user. The mobile unit module removably couples to the accessory. The battery pack module removably couples to one of the mobile unit and the accessory.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and/or methods that facilitate adaptive display of content among a plurality of display components including at least one virtual image display component are presented. The disclosed subject matter facilitates forming determinations or inferences based on various metrics for adaptively routing content to select display devices. The display interface component, at least in part, routes content selectively between a primary display component and a virtual image display (VID) component. This can better optimize the use of VID components to avoid overstimulation of a user while allowing access to the benefits of the VID component under predetermined conditions.
