Head mounted type display apparatus capable of generating or detecting vibrations
First Claim
1. A head mounted type display apparatus comprising:
- a display device for displaying an optical picture based on an inputted picture signal;
an ocular optical system for projecting said picture to an eye of a user;
a supporting section having a contact surface for supporting said display device and said ocular optical system through said contact surface on a head section including a head and face of said user; and
a vibration device placed on said contact surface of said supporting section, said vibration device engaging said head section and vibrating in response to an input of a caution signal which is a signal for alerting said user.

Abstract
A head mounted type display composed of a display device for displaying an optical picture based on inputted picture signal, an ocular optical system for projecting the picture to an eye of the user, a head band, forehead resting section and right- and left-hand side head supporting sections for supporting a body section including the display device and the ocular optical system while being brought into contact with a head section of the user, a vibration device placed on each of the right- and left-hand side head supporting sections for receiving a caution signal to vibrate the vibration device to give a caution to the user. With this arrangement, the head mounted type display apparatus can surely give a caution to the user without affecting a picture and a sound.
