1. A wearable display device comprising:
- a frame;
a display unit configured to show an image in at least a partial area thereof and positioned in front of a user'"'"'s eye in a first mode;
a main unit coupled to the frame;
a hinge disposed at a coupling point of the display unit and the main unit to enable a rotation of the display unit;
a detector part configured to detect a dangerous condition for a user; and
a rotation control part configured to automatically rotate the display unit if the detector part detects the dangerous condition for the user,wherein the display unit is rotatable about the hinge by at least 180 degrees, andwherein the detector part is deactivated if the user'"'"'s movement speed is equal to or lower than a preset threshold speed or the user is located indoors.
