  • Publication number: 20240369849
    Abstract: Frame assemblies for a head-mounted display may include a facial interface frame, a display support frame, and at least one extendible tab coupled to the facial interface frame and the display support frame. The at least one extendible tab may be movable between a retracted position at which a near-eye display supported by the display support frame is located a first distance from the facial interface frame and a second position at which the near-eye display is located at a second, greater distance from the facial interface frame. Various other methods, head-mounted displays, frames and frame elements, and systems are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20240369848
    Abstract: Frames for a head-mounted display may include a front frame portion, a facial interface portion with outer peripheral regions configured to flex to conform to a user's facial features when in use, and two upper support elements connecting the facial interface portion to the front frame portion. Intersection points between the upper support elements and the facial interface portion may be separated by a common interpupillary distance of expected users. Various other methods, head-mounted displays, frames and frame elements, and systems are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20240192509
    Abstract: The disclosed flexible facial interface assemblies for head-mounted display systems may include a rigid support frame element and a flexible facial interface frame element. The rigid support frame element may be shaped and configured to physically support a display of a head-mounted display system in front of a user's eyes when the facial interface assembly is worn by the user. The flexible facial interface frame element may be configured to flex to conform to the user's facial features when the facial interface assembly is worn by the user. An outer periphery of the flexible facial interface frame element may be independently movable relative to an outer periphery of the rigid support frame element. Various other systems and methods are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10863637
    Abstract: A facial-interface system for a head-mounted-display device may include a facial interface and a facial-interface adjustment apparatus. The facial-interface adjustment apparatus may include (1) an interface-mounting member for mounting the facial-interface adjustment apparatus to a display housing, and (2) a pivot member coupled to the facial interface and rotatably coupled to the interface-mounting member such that that the facial interface is rotatable between a plurality of positions relative to the interface-mounting member. A head-mounted-display device may include a facial interface, a display housing, and a facial-interface adjustment apparatus. The facial-interface adjustment apparatus may include (1) an interface-mounting member disposed in an interior of the display housing, and (2) a pivot member coupled to the facial interface and rotatably coupled to the interface-mounting member such that that the facial interface is rotatable between a plurality of positions relative to the display housing.
