Abstract
An optical mount includes a frame adapted to support display optical systems and heat emitting electronic components. The mount includes a first portion housing the electronic components and one or more support components extending away from the electronic components. The one or more support components may include temple arms adapted to support the frame on the head of a wearer of the optical mount. The frame may be comprised of a thermally conductive material coupled to the electronic components. The support components include a first side and a second side, and at least one void positioned between the first side and the second side adapted to convey heat away from the electronic components. The void may define a bifurcated region in the support component.
