Abstract

A wearable display device includes: a display on an exterior side of the wearable display device; one or more processors that determine positioning data that describe a physical three-dimensional orientation of the wearable display device relative to a face of a user by: receiving radio frequency (RF) readings from an array of RF detectors within the wearable display device, where the RF detectors detect a relative orientation and distance between the wearable display device and an RF transmitter that is positioned on a head of the user; and determining positioning data that describe the relative orientation and distance between the wearable display device and the RF transmitter based on the RF readings from the array of RF detectors; and a video display controller that displays video content on a section of the wearable display device that is facing the user according to the positioning data.
