Abstract: Disclosed is an operation device that includes a mounting section, a first position detection section, and a stimulus generation section. The mounting section is attached to a hand and fingers of a user. The first position detection section is disposed on the mounting section to detect the positions of the fingers. The stimulus generation section is disposed on the mounting section, placed at a position corresponding to one of the user's fingers, and configured to apply an external stimulus to the user.

Abstract: A head-mounted display that can suppress positional misalignment of a display apparatus in the left and right directions, and can reduce the load on a user's nose is proposed. A nose pad assembly H has: a movable portion (M2) having a frame (31), and a nose pad (32) attached to the frame (31); and a support mechanism (M1) that is attached to an apparatus body (10), and supports the frame (31). The support mechanism (M1) supports the frame (31) such that a motion of the nose pad (32) in the front and rear directions is allowed.
