Original Abstract Submitted
a head-mountable device can include a frame, a window secured to the frame, and a securement arm extending from the frame. the securement arm can include a proximal end a distal tip opposite the proximal end. the securement arm can further include a waveguide, which can be configured to direct light at the window, and an electronic port disposed at the distal tip and electrically coupled to the waveguide. the securement arm can also include a housing that can include a proximal portion and a distal portion disposed at an angle to define an aperture. a battery, as well as a port, can be disposed in the housing, wherein the port can include the aperture and a contact electrically coupled to the battery. the contact, along with a retention feature, can further define the aperture. the securement arm can include an electronic port disposed at the distal tip, wherein the electronic port can be a selectively translatable electrical contact. the selectively translatable electrical contact can be an open configuration where the electrical contact can be exposed to an external environment and a closed configuration where the electrical contact can be inaccessible and disposed within the distal tip.
