I wonder at this point if VR wouldn't work better in a helmet. You'd have more space to put components and you could space them out more. It would probably be more comfortable due to better weight distribution as well.

I don't think a helmet sounds appealing. This would have additional weight, additional costs for materials and also increase the temperature inside the helmet. 

The design as it is now is already good.

You would have better weight distribution though, and there are ways to ventilate such a device.
