- and
- an electronic component;
- and
- a securement arm, the securement arm comprising:
- a hinge segment rotatably coupling the securement arm with the proximal end of the fixed portion;
- and
- an elongated member extending distally from the hinge.
An optical electronic device, comprising:
- a frame comprising a transparent window;
- a fixed portion extending from the frame, the fixed portion defining a connection aperture and including a waveguide configured to direct light to the transparent window;
- a securement arm extending distally from the frame, the securement arm comprising:
- a bracket segment rotatably engaged with the fixed portion at the connection aperture and extending along a length of the fixed portion;
- and
- an elongated member rotatably coupled to the bracket segment;
- and
- a deflector engaged with the bracket segment and the fixed portion.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a frame:
- a viewing window secured to the frame;
- an electronic housing portion, the electronic housing portion comprising a projector fixed within the electronic housing portion;
- a securement arm rotatably extending distally to the electronic housing portion, the securement arm comprising:
