This paper describes the results of experiments conducted to quantify the influence of weight and weight balance of head-mounted displays (HMDs) on subjective physical burden. Also, the results of computer simulations with digital human models are presented to predict the postural risk of wearing HMD with arbitrary weight and weight balance.
