Abstract

A headset can include a head mount; a support coupled to the head mount; and a multiply curved display coupled to the support.

Claims (32)

1. A headset comprising:

a head mount;

a support coupled to the head mount;

a multiply curved display coupled to the support, wherein the multiply curved display comprises a horizontal curvature and a vertical curvature, a sellion point, and a length of at least 10 cm that extends in part above the sellion point and in part below the sellion point; and

circuitry that comprises field of view control circuitry that sets an active extent of the multiply curved display.

2. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the multiply curved display is a bendable display.

3. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the multiply curved display comprises panels.

4. The headset of claim 3 , wherein the panels comprise folding panels.

5. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry comprises distortion control circuitry.

6. The headset of claim 5 , wherein the distortion control circuitry provides for at least one of pin-cushion distortion control, barrel distortion control and mustache distortion control.

7. The headset of claim 1 , comprising memory and at least one processor operatively coupled to the multiply curved display for rendering of content to the multiply curved display.

8. The headset of claim 1 , comprising anti-condensation circuitry.

9. The headset of claim 1 , comprising a fan.

10. The headset of claim 1 , comprising at least one nose pad.

11. The headset of claim 10 , wherein the multiply curved display extends a distance above and a distance below the at least one nose pad.

12. The headset of claim 1 , comprising at least one head cushion positionable closer to a hairline than a browline.

13. The headset of claim 1 , comprising at least one chin cushion.

14. The headset of claim 1 , comprising at least one head strap coupled to the support.

15. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the multiply curved display comprises adjustable curvature and adjustable eye-to-display distance.

16. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the horizontal curvature and the vertical curvature generate a Gaussian curvature that does not exceed a strain limit of the display.

17. A headset comprising:

a head mount;

a support coupled to the head mount; and

a multiply curved display coupled to the support, wherein the multiply curved display comprises panels, wherein the panels comprise nesting panels, and wherein the nesting panels are shaped as lemon portions.

18. The headset of claim 17 , wherein the lemon portions comprise one or more truncated lemon portions.

19. A headset comprising:

a head mount;

a support coupled to the head mount; and

a multiply curved display coupled to the support, wherein the multiply curved display comprises a horizontal curvature and a vertical curvature, a sellion point, and a length of at least 10 cm that extends in part above the sellion point and in part below the sellion point, and wherein the multiply curved display comprises adjustable curvature and adjustable eye-to-display distance.

20. The headset of claim 19 , wherein the multiply curved display is a bendable display.

21. The headset of claim 19 , wherein the multiply curved display comprises panels.

22. The headset of claim 21 , wherein the panels comprise folding panels.
