Abstract:
A head-mounted display (HMD) system includes an optical arrangement; at least one moveable image panel, wherein the optical arrangement directs image light from the moveable image panel along a first optical pathway; a fixed image panel, wherein a portion of image light emitted from the fixed image panel is combined with image light of the at least one moveable image panel by the optical arrangement; and an adjustment mechanism that is configured to adjust an interpupillary distance (IPD) of the HMD system by moving the optical arrangement and the moveable image panel relative to the fixed image panel between a first position and a second position corresponding to different IPDs. The adjustment to the IPD maintains the first optical pathway. The HMD system further may include a sensing module that measures an adjustment position of the optical arrangement, and control electronics configured that determines the IPD based on the measured adjustment position, and updates image light emitted by the fixed image panel based on the IPD.

Claim (Index 6):
A head-mounted display (HMD) system comprising:\n an optical arrangement; a first image panel, wherein the optical arrangement directs image light from the first image panel along a first optical pathway; a second image panel, wherein the optical arrangement directs image light from the second image panel along a second optical pathway different from the first optical pathway; a central image panel located between the first image panel and the second image panel, the central image panel including a first panel portion and a second panel portion; wherein the optical arrangement directs light from the first panel portion and the second panel portion of the central image panel along different optical pathways; and wherein the optical arrangement is configured such that light from the first image panel and the first panel portion of central image panel are emitted from the HMD system in a combined fashion in a first eye direction, and light from the second image panel and the second panel portion of the central image panel are emitted from the HMD system in a combined fashion in a second eye direction different from the first eye direction; and an adjustment mechanism that is configured adjust an interpupillary distance (IPD) of the HMD system by moving the optical arrangement and the first and second image panels relative to the central image panel between a first position and a second position corresponding to different IPDs; wherein the adjustment to the IPD maintains the first optical pathway and the second optical pathway, and alters the positions of the first and second image panel portions of the central image panel.
