HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY DEVICE
First Claim
1. A primarily reflective-based, head mounted display device comprising:
- a wearable, head mounted frame;
at least one near-to-eye optics housing connected to said frame, wherein said optics housing and frame are configured such that said optics housing may be positioned at least partially in front of an eye of a user, said optics housing comprising;
a light-emitting visual source for projecting visual content;
a plurality of reflective optical surfaces in optical communication with said light-emitting visual source and configured to reflect a projection of said visual content into said eye of said user, and wherein said reflective optical surfaces are configured to cooperatively magnify said projection of said visual content when said projection is reflected off of each reflective optical surface, such that said projected visual content appears magnified when viewed by said user'"'"'s eye.

Abstract
Disclosed is a primarily reflective-based head mounted display device, for displaying and viewing visual content from a visual display source, including a frame, at least one optics housing connected to said frame, wherein the optics housing and frame are configured such that the optics housing may be positioned at least partially in front of an eye of a user, and wherein the optics housing includes a light-emitting visual source disposed within the optics housing for projecting visual content, and a plurality of reflective optical surfaces in optical communication with the light-emitting visual source that are configured to reflect a projection of the visual content into the eye of the user.

54. A method of projecting magnified visual content to an eyebox of a head mounted display device, comprising:
-
providing a wearable head mounted display, configured to be placed onto a user'"'"'s head and in front of at least one of said user'"'"'s eyes, said head mounted display comprising a frame and at least one near-to-eye optics housing connected to said frame, said optics housing comprising at least one light-emitting visual source disposed within said optics housing for projecting visual content, and a plurality of reflective optical surfaces disposed within said optics housing, wherein said reflective optical surfaces are configured to successively reflect a magnified projection of said content to said eyebox; providing an input signal to said light-emitting visual source to produce visual content to be projected; reflecting said projected content off of said reflective optical surfaces such that a last reflective optical surface reflects said content to said eyebox, wherein said content will appear magnified. - View Dependent Claims (55, 56, 57, 58, 59)
