Abstract: An optical module for a head-mounted device is configured to present content to a user. The optical module includes an optical module housing assembly, a display assembly, and an eye camera. The optical module housing assembly has a first end and a second end. The lens is connected to the optical module housing assembly and positioned at the first end of the optical module housing assembly. The display assembly is connected to the optical module housing assembly and is positioned at the second end of the optical module housing assembly. The display assembly is configured to cause the content to be displayed to the user through the lens. The eye camera is connected to the optical module housing assembly and is positioned at the second end of the optical module housing assembly. The eye camera is configured to obtain images through the lens.

Abstract: A system can include head-mounted devices that collaborate to process views from cameras of the respective head-mounted devices and identify objects from different perspectives and/or objects that are within the view of only one of the head-mounted devices. Sharing sensory input between multiple head-mounted devices can complement and enhance individual units by interpreting and reconstructing objects, surfaces, and/or an external environment with perceptive data from multiple angles and positions, which also reduces occlusions and inaccuracies. As more detailed information is available at a specific moment in time, the speed and accuracy of object recognition, hand and body tracking, surface mapping, and/or digital reconstruction can be improved. Such collaboration can provide more effective and efficient mapping of space, surfaces, objects, gestures and users.

Abstract: A head-mounted display a housing, two display modules, and a head support. The two display modules ae coupled to the housing. Each of the two display modules includes a display for outputting light that forms graphical content, a lens for refracting the light output by the display, and an eye illuminator. The eye illuminator includes a light-emitting diode, a flexible circuit to which the light-emitting diode is coupled, and a stiffener laminated to the flexible circuit with one or fewer layers of adhesive. The lens is removably coupled to the display indirectly by the stiffener. The head support is coupled to the housing for supporting the housing on a head of a user with the two display modules positioned to provide the graphical content to eyes of the user.
