It is very beneficial that the camera points in the direction your head is facing, though. And the easiest way to achieve that is to just mount it on the head.
Fully agreed. It’s worth noting that mounting it to the side would likely also work fine. Particularly if the person is already blind. That way it doesn’t disrupt the view of facial expressions.
Mounting it further out to the side would add bulk, though. Also, that looks pretty heavy, so moving it out would mean the user would have to strain more to keep their head plumb. Mounting it on the forehead is an option, but then it would need a lot of rework to add a second eye, and there’s no path towards being able to wear a hat or helmet.
