Switchable virtual reality headset and augmented reality device

A system comprising:

• a switchable viewing assembly including:
• a handle;
• a device chamber coupled to the handle and configured to hold a computing device;
• a viewport assembly;
• and
• a hinge assembly that pivotably couples the device chamber to the viewport assembly, the switchable viewing assembly configured to be moved between a virtual reality configuration and an augmented reality configuration via the hinge assembly, the viewport assembly configured to be rotated away from the device chamber and toward the handle when the switchable viewing assembly is moved to the augmented reality configuration.

A device comprising:

• a handle;
• a device chamber coupled to the handle;
• and
• a viewport assembly including lenses;
• the device chamber being hingedly coupled to the viewport assembly, the device being configured to move between a virtual reality configuration and an augmented reality configuration, the device chamber configured to hold a computing device having a display viewable through the viewport assembly in the virtual reality configuration, the display being viewable through the viewport assembly in an augmented reality configuration, the viewport assembly being rotated away from the device chamber when moved to the augmented reality configuration.

A device comprising:

• a handle;
• a device chamber coupled to the handle, and configured to hold a computing device;
• and
• a viewport assembly hingedly coupled to the device chamber, the handle including a rest extending out from the handle in a viewing direction and confiugured to support and secure the viewport assembly in an augmented reality configuration.

a device comprising:

• a handle;
• a device chamber coupled to the handle, and configured to hold a computing device;
• and
• a viewport assembly hingedly coupled to the device chamber, the device configured to be moved between a virtual reality configuration and an augmented reality configuration via the hinged coupling, the computing device including a proximity sensing assembly configured to detect a proximity indicator of the videwport assembly.
