  • Patent number: 10108016
    Abstract: A headband is disclosed for supporting a head-worn device with a comfortable and non-intrusive fit. In examples, the headband includes first and second loops supporting the headband on a wearer's head, and an adjustment mechanism for tightening the first and second loops. The adjustment mechanism tightens down the loops to a desired fit, at which point further actuation of the adjustment mechanism has no effect on the loops.

  • Patent number: 10034508
    Abstract: A head-worn assembly is disclosed including a head-worn device supported on a headband. The headband may include a first loop positioned around the head, and possibly a second loop affixed to the first loop and positioned over the head. Weight distribution and comfort of the head-worn assembly may be optimized by mounting the head-worn device at an approximate center (front to back) of the headband, and further balancing the weight of the head-worn device (front to back) over the mounting point. The weight distribution and comfort of the head-worn assembly may be further optimized by providing several user-customizable adjustments to the head-worn assembly.

  • Patent number: 9817476
    Abstract: An augmented reality device includes a frame assembly including a nose piece and a pair of temple pads configured to accommodate a plurality of fit points of a user. A set of mountings on the frame assembly is configured to mount to the frame assembly any of a plurality of different see-through display modules having different exit pupil distances. A see-through display module is coupled to the frame assembly via the set of mountings. The see-through display module is selected from among the plurality of different see-through display modules to match an exit pupil distance of the see-through display module to an inter-pupillary distance of the user.

  • Publication number: 20160054571
    Abstract: A headset is disclosed including optics supported on a headband by a pair of temple arm assemblies. The temple arm assemblies are positioned on either side of a wearer's head when the headset is worn. Each temple arm assembly may include one or more kinematic assemblies allowing pivotal and/or translational adjustment of the optics to optimize optical properties such as line-of-sight, pantoscopic tilt and/or eye relief. The one or more kinematic assemblies for each temple arm may have a variety of different pivots and/or slides enabling adjustment of the optics and optical properties.
