Abstract: A method for aligning an image on a mobile device disposed within a head-mounted display (HMD) housing includes: detecting a request to align an image on a touchscreen of a mobile device; detecting, on the touchscreen, a first detected location corresponding to a first touchscreen input event; determining a first displacement of the first detected location with respect to a first target location of the first touchscreen input event; and transposing the image on the touchscreen based on the first displacement. A virtual reality system includes: a mobile device having a touchscreen configured to display an image; and a HMD housing having a first contact configured to generate a first input event at a first location on the touchscreen when the mobile device is disposed within the HMD housing.

Abstract: A head-mounted virtual reality (VR) viewer includes a housing to removably incorporate a portable user device having a touchscreen associated with a display panel, and includes a set of conductive contacts positioned in the housing so as to trigger corresponding touch events at the touchscreen of the portable user device when incorporated at the housing. The portable user device is to detect a location on the touchscreen for each touch event triggered by a conductive contact, determine an orientation of the display panel relative to the housing based on the one or more detected locations of touch events, and configure at least one display operation of the portable user device based on the determined orientation.

Abstract: A headset for experiencing an augmented and/or a virtual reality environment may include a housing defining an interior cavity, with optical components received in the interior cavity of the housing. A front face may be rotatably coupled to a front portion of the housing to selectively enclose the interior of the housing. A computing device including a display may be received in a slot defined between the front portion of the housing and the front face. A face pad may be removably coupled to the housing, opposite the front face, so as to enclose the optical components in the housing. A user may view an augmented/virtual reality environment displayed on the display through the optical components received in the housing. An adjustable head strap assembly may adjustably position the headset on the head of the user.
