Abstract

A hygienic in-vehicle head-mounted display (HMD) includes: a head piece, a stiff module, and a lock that connects and disconnects the head piece and the stiff module. The head piece is in direct physical contact with the passenger's face. The stiff module includes a display module that projects video into eyes of a passenger of a vehicle while the HMD is worn by the passenger. In one embodiment, a storage module may be used to stow the stiff module. Optionally, the storage module releases the stiff module responsive to the head piece being connected to the stiff module. In another embodiment, a processor instructs the display module to project video responsive to an indication that the head piece and the stiff module are connected, and instructs the display module not to project the video, responsive to an indication that the head piece and the stiff module are not connected.
