1. A head mounted display (HMD) to be worn by a user, comprising:
- an adjustable crown band;
left and right crown racks at posterior ends of the crown band;
a crown band circumference adjusting mechanism coupled to the crown band and configured to adjust a circumference of the crown band by moving the left and right crown racks in a timed manner;
a display mounted at an anterior side of the crown band; and
an eye relief distance adjustment mechanism configured to (1) move the display toward and away from the crown band along a substantially linear path, to thereby adjust an eye relief distance from the display to an eye of the user when the crown band is fitted on the crown of the user, and (2) adjust the eye relief distance while maintaining the circumference of the crown band.
