Soft head mounted display goggles for use with mobile computing devices
First Claim
1. A head mounted display system for use with a mobile computing device, comprising:
- a soft main body made entirely of a soft and compressible material that, when manufactured, may be molded into shape, the soft main body configured to be worn on a human head, wherein the main body has a retention pocket entirely formed by the material and configured to accept and secure the mobile computing device therein;
a lens assembly comprising two lenses configured to focus vision on respective areas of a display screen of the mobile computing device, the lens assembly held within one or more apertures formed in the main body entirely by the material, the two lenses mounted for independent movement with respect to each other, such that a split screen image may be viewed through the two lenses on the display screen; and
wherein the lens assembly comprises a stylus having a tip coupled to and movable with each of the two lenses, wherein each stylus has a length sufficient for the stylus tip to contact the display screen of the mobile computing device when positioned within the retention pocket, and each stylus tip is capable of initiating a touch response on the capacitive touch screen display, and further including a button on the exterior of the main body such that a user may touch the button and cause the stylus tip to initiate a touch response on the capacitive touch screen display.
