Head securement for head-mountable device

Last updated:

Abstract:

Systems of the present disclosure can provide a head-mountable device that distributes securement forces to sides of the user's head. A head-mountable device can include a head securement element with arms that clamp onto sides of the user's head. Such arms can be pivotably coupled to a frame of the head-mountable device. Where a band is provided, the band can have an adjustable width that tightens onto the sides of the user's head to reduce the load on the front and rear of the user's head. A head-mountable device can also distribute forces (e.g., weight) onto the top of the user's head without restricting facial features of the user (e.g., forehead, eyes, etc.).
