Apple develops securement systems for improved smartglasses comfort

Apple is developing new securement systems for its Vision Pro and future smartglasses to improve user comfort. Recent patents reveal adjustable features that allow better fit around the ears, addressing previous concerns about weight and discomfort. The new patent, titled "Adjustable Head Securement For Head-mountable Device," bypassed the public application stage and was granted directly. It focuses on enhancing comfort by allowing users to adjust the fit of the device. These adjustments aim to distribute pressure evenly and accommodate different head shapes and sizes. This development marks a shift from earlier designs that were criticized for being too tight and uncomfortable.
