Abstract

A head-mounted display unit includes a display assembly and a head support coupled to the display assembly that supports the head-mounted display unit worn on a head of a user. The head support includes a band that is formed from a stretchable material to allow for expansion and contraction of the band, a cord that extends through the band, and an adjustment mechanism that is coupled to the cord and is configured to extend and retract the cord to thereby shorten and lengthen the head support.
