Abstract
An animal-wearable head-mountable display (AW-HMD) device comprises a head fitting designed to fit the head of an animal, and an output subsystem coupled to or integral with the head fitting and configured to output a signal to the animal. The device can comprise an optical module configured to project images into an eye of the animal, and various other modules, such as an audio module, a tactile module and/or an olfactory module.
Claims20
A head-mountable display device comprising:
- a goggles designed to fit the head of an animal, the goggles including a frame that rests against the head of the animal when the head-mountable display device is worn by the animal, the goggles further including a lens supported by the frame, the lens having an opening therein;
- a plurality of brackets coupled to the frame of the goggles;
- and
- an output subsystem configured to output a signal to the animal, the output subsystem including an active display element and a beamsplitter/combiner collectively configured to project an image into an eye of the animal when the head-mountable display device is in operation, the active display element and the beamsplitter/combiner each coupled to the plurality of brackets, wherein the beamsplitter/combiner is aligned with the opening in the lens along a line of sight of the animal when the head-mountable display device is worn by the animal.
