Ergonomics of human-system interaction — Part 383: Physical parameters of head-mounted displays for optimal user interaction (tentative)

Scope

This standard provides guidelines and establishes parameters for the design, performance, and user interaction of Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs), referred to as 'eyewear displays' within certain contexts. It addresses the current needs and challenges in human–machine interaction, reflecting the evolution and growing popularity of HMDs.
The document covers, but is not limited to:
- Alignment: Including image clarity adjustment, mitigation of 'hot spots,' anti-slippage measures.
- Heat Considerations: Guidelines for contact heat and moderate heat, potential effects on the viewer's body.
Additionally, this standard aligns with and supplements existing IEC standards related to eyewear displays, providing a comprehensive framework for suppliers, users, and all parties involved with HMDs.

NOTE: This document does not address specific proprietary technologies or individual manufacturer's products and may be used in conjunction with other relevant standards, such as ISO 9241-303 and ISO 9241-305, which previously addressed HMDs.
