Patent attributes
A head mounted display device includes a structural frame arranged generally along a first axis and a second axis for viewing along a third axis, the first, second, and third axes being mutually perpendicular. The structural frame includes opposing upper and lower rims between which are defined left and right openings. Left and right micro-displays are coupled to the structural frame, and are configured to project visual content in a substantially forward direction along the third axis toward the left and right openings, respectively, and away from a user. Left and right optical elements are coupled to the structural frame and respectively positioned over the left and right openings and each include an at least partially reflective surface facing in a substantially rearward direction along the third axis. The structural frame maintains the optical elements in alignment to define an optical light path for reflectively guiding a light ray bundle from the micro-displays to a user's eyes.
