A display worn on the face like ski goggles. Abbreviation for head mounted display. A small LCD or CRT is attached to the lens of the glasses, and images are projected to each eye, enabling stereoscopic vision. This is the basic hardware for wearable computers and virtual reality. There are types in which the head movement of the wearer is detected by a gyroscope inside the HMD, and the computer controls the image in accordance with the movement, enhancing the sense of realism. It is used in simulation training for special environments such as outer space and the inside of a nuclear reactor, as well as in computer games.
