Aspects of the present invention relate to methods and systems for a head-worn computer with a content display where the head-worn computer can be changed from an augmented reality system where there is relatively high see-through transmission through the display to a virtual reality system where the is no or relatively little see-through transmission through the display.

Claims (8)

1. A stray light suppression system, comprising:

a shroud mechanically adapted to be removably and replacably mounted to a see-through display system adapted to be worn on the head of a user;

the shroud further adapted to, when mounted on the see-through display system, suppress light emitted from the see-through display system and suppress surrounding environment light from entering sides of the see-through display system

wherein the system further comprises a peripheral light effects system adapted to effect peripheral light effects in coordination with content presented in a field of view.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the lighting effects are colored lighting effects.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the peripheral lighting effects system-comprises a light source substantially surrounding the inside cavity for controlled placement of the effect lighting direction.
