Preliminary Evaluation of the Kaiser View Display System.

Abstract : An evaluation of the prototype Kaiser Electronics VIEW Display System was conducted in conjunction with a study of the Army Tactical Command and Control System (ATCCS) during the first week of March 1998 at the request of the U.S. Army Aviation Center Directorate of Training, Doctrine and Simulation. The evaluation is based on responses of first-time users in a command and control environment. A questionnaire was developed to assess user impressions relating to a range of human factors aspects of the prototype helmet display system. This report contains a brief description of the evaluation method and findings. The responses indicate that the system is feasible as a tactical command and control display in a ground-based installation. The display system appears to have no disqualifying attributes. The utility of the display would be improved with an increase in display spatial resolution.
