Abstract
An artificial-reality headset assembly includes an artificial-reality headset, a battery pack, and a plurality of head straps. One end of each of the head straps is coupled to the artificial-reality headset and the respective opposite end is coupled to the battery pack. The plurality of head straps includes one or more side straps configured to be worn around a user's head. The battery pack is located in proximity to a posterior portion of the user's head when the artificial-reality headset is worn. The position and weight of the battery pack function to counterbalance weight of the artificial-reality headset, creating a symmetric balance along an axis of the user's head and maintaining the position of the battery pack regardless of adjustment to the one or more side straps. In some embodiments, the plurality of head straps includes an overhead strap (e.g., an adjustable ergonomic strap).
