Abstract
A system includes a head-mounted display (HMD) device configured to project digital images to a user's eye and a viewing device. The viewing device includes an optical relay unit having a world-facing surface and an eye-facing surface and a holder coupled to the optical relay unit and configured to support the HMD device near the world-facing surface. The optical relay unit is configured to transmit light projected by the HMD device to an eye-facing aperture disposed at the eye-facing surface of the optical relay. The system shifts an eyebox of the HMD by receiving light projected from an optical combiner of the HMD, transmitting the light through the optical relay unit of the viewing device to the eye-facing aperture of the optical relay unit, and outputting the light from the eye-facing aperture such that the light is focused at an eyebox in which a user's eye is located.
