Part-task training with a helmet-integrated display simulator system

A helmet-integrated display (HID) coupled with a microprocessor computer image generator (CIG) provides a low-cost flight-simulation and mission planning/rehearsal system. The proposed HID/CIG training system has a wide 60 deg field-of-view (FOV) display and is lightweight, compact, and transportable. A head tracker linked to the HID permits unlimited head movement and a 360 deg field-of-regard. Two or more HID/CIG systems may be interconnected to simulate interaction with other crew members, aircraft, and ground vehicles.
