Mobile Electronic Device Compatible Immersive Headwear For Providing Both Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality Experiences

摘要

An apparatus can include headwear having a head receiver that is pivotally coupled to a first shield. A second shield can be attached to the headwear exterior to the first shield. The second shield can include a holographic optical element. An electronic device can be coupled to, or alternatively integrated with, the first shield. One or more processors of the electronic device can determined whether the first shield is in a first position relative to the head receiver or a second, angularly displaced position. Where the first shield is in the first position, the one or more processors can operate the electronic device in a virtual reality mode of operation. Where the first shield is in the second, angularly displaced position, the one or more processors can operate the electronic device in an augmented reality mode of operation.
