1. A head-mounted display device, comprising:
- an optical assembly through which at least a part of a surrounding environment and also displayed content are viewable;
an integrated sensor configured to acquire sensor data relating to the surrounding environment, the integrated sensor comprising an image sensor configured to acquire image data of the surrounding environment;
an integrated processor for handling the sensor data and content for presentation to a user, the integrated processor configured to recognize an environmental feature in the surrounding environment based on the image data acquired by the image sensor;
an image source configured to introduce content to the optical assembly; and
a communications facility configured to connect the head-mounted display device to a hand held remote control comprising a haptic interface and to send a request to the hand held remote control to output a haptic notification upon recognition of the environmental feature in the surrounding environment based on the image data acquired by the image sensor of the head-mounted display device, the hand held remote control further being configured to communicate with and control the head-mounted display device, andthe integrated processor being further configured to display virtual content providing information regarding the environmental feature via the image source and optical assembly upon recognition of the environmental feature.

Abstract
This disclosure concerns an interactive head-mounted eyepiece with an integrated processor for handling content for display and an integrated image source for introducing the content to an optical assembly through which the user views a surrounding environment and the displayed content. The optical assembly includes absorptive polarizers or anti-reflective coatings to reduce stray light.
