Ball Cap with Headset Mounting Clips – Sun Brim Clear of the Camera

Ball cap with headset clips: overview

This ball cap has mounting clips integrated into it for rugged assisted reality headsets (RealWear Navigator 520 and Navigator Z1), giving a balanced, stable headset position where a hard hat is not required.

Its brim is shaped to give sun protection without blocking the adjustable high-resolution camera, and a semi-flexible inner band adds stability.

It is a lightweight, durable option for outdoor work, training and light-duty deployments.

Choosing the right accessories

For the rugged headsets (Navigator 520 and Z1), choose a mount that matches your site rules: brand-specific hard hat clips give the firmest fit on MSA, Honeywell, Petzl, 3M and Japanese helmets; the universal hard hat band fits most other front-brim hard hats; the Workband 2, Tri-Band Strap and Overhead Band are for use without a hard hat or under a bump cap; and the ball cap suits outdoor, light-duty work.

For power, the Navigator 520 uses hot-swappable 2600 mAh batteries: pair spares with the single-bay charger and a Quick Charge 3.0 USB-A adapter. The lightweight headband model (Arc 3) charges over USB-C or on its desk/wall charging station, powered by a USB-C Power Delivery adapter.

For connectivity and sensing, the Mini LTE Modem adds 4G where there is no Wi-Fi, and the thermal camera module adds FLIR thermal imaging to the Navigator 520. Remember that only certified accessories keep the Navigator Z1 intrinsically safe.

Setup and use

1. Adjust the Velcro back to your head size.
2. Snap the headset into the integrated clips.
3. Position the display boom in front of your eye and tilt the camera as needed.

Care and maintenance

Wipe it with a soft, slightly damp cloth, keep it away from solvents and excessive heat, and inspect it regularly for wear. Replace it as soon as it no longer holds or protects as it should.
