XR Headset Front-Rear Layout for Weight Balance and Comfort
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing extended reality devices suffer from weight concentration at the front, leading to increased thickness and reduced wearing comfort due to the placement of the main structure at the forehead, affecting both aesthetics and user experience.
Innovation Solution
The extended reality device is divided into a front part with a display module and a rear part with a system controller and battery, redistributing the weight to improve balance and reduce thickness, with the system controller controlling the display module through connecting circuits.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the main structure (system controller and battery) is arranged at the front part of the forehead, then the extended reality device can be powered and controlled, but the weight becomes concentrated on the front part, increasing thickness and reducing wearing comfort
Solution Approach 1:
The extended reality device is divided into two distinct parts: a front part containing only the display module, and a rear part containing the system controller and battery. This segmentation separates the heavy components from the front, reducing front part weight and thickness while maintaining full device functionality through the rear part's control and power systems.
2Reliability
If the main structure is arranged at the front part, then the device can operate, but the thickness of the front part increases, affecting appearance and wearing comfort
Solution Approach 1:
By segmenting the device into front and rear parts with distinct functions, the front part thickness is reduced to accommodate only the display module, while the system controller and battery are relocated to the rear part, maintaining operational capability without increasing front part dimensions.
3Weight of moving object
If the system controller and battery are placed in the rear part, then the front part weight is reduced, but the device structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The device structure is segmented into modular front and rear parts that can be independently designed and manufactured. This modular segmentation, while creating two separate structural units, simplifies the overall design by allowing each part to be optimized independently and assembled together, reducing the complexity of integrating all components in a single housing.

AI summary
The present disclosure provides an extended reality device and a control method thereof. The extended reality device includes: a front part and a rear part; the front part comprising: a display module, configured to display extended reality image; the rear part comprising: a system controller connected to the display module and configured to control operation of the display module; a battery connected to the system controller and configured to supply power to each electrical device. Through the above solution, transferring the system controller and the battery to the rear part setting, so that the weight of the front part of the extended reality device is significantly reduced, the thickness of the front part is significantly reduced, the weight of the rear part and the front part can be balanced, there is no bias when user wears the extended reality device, which improves the user's wearing comfort.
