Abstract
A wearable device includes a wearable element that is worn on the head of the wearer, a display that displays a virtual image within part of the field of view of the wearer, and a connector that is connected to the wearable element. The connector includes a slide-rotation mechanism that supports the display so as to be slidable with respect to the head and rotatable in a state in which the display has been slid. The slide-rotation mechanism is provided to the connector so that the slide direction of the display is parallel to the direction that extends along the rotation axis around which the display is rotated.
