Book Visual Optics of Head up Displays  HUDs  in Automotive Applications

Download or read book Visual Optics of Head up Displays HUDs in Automotive Applications written by Shigeru Okabayashi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 1996 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title examines head-up display technology (HUD) and its application in the automotive industry. With the recent trend toward higher-speed mobility, as typified by the plan in Japan to build a second Tomei expressway linking Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka, there is a need for more complex and accurate navigation or route guidance systems. In addition, older drivers, whose vision may be declining, must be able to obtain the necessary information for safe vehicle operation. The author demonstrates that HUD, originally developed for weapons targeting in fighter planes, is ideal for meeting these future automotive navigational and social needs. As HUDs become a standard automotive feature this work will be an important reference to this rapidly developing technology.

Book Head up Displays for Automotive Applications

Download or read book Head up Displays for Automotive Applications written by A. Harrison and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the literature on automotive head-up displays (HUDs) from a human-factors point of view. Four major topics are covered in this reivew: HUD display parameters, the designs of available HUDs, popular appraisals of HUDs, and human performance with HUDs. The most important display parameters are HUD location and HUD contrast with respect to the roadway. Several assessments of optimal HUD location have been made, and there is a consensus that HUDs should be located in the region where drivers make the majority of their eye fixations. Appropriate HUD image contrast levels with respect oth the roadway have also been assessed, and it has been recommended that the HUD image be between 15 percent and 50 percent as bright as the background for daylight luminance conditions, and about 300 percent as bright as the background during nighttime luminance conditions. The second section of the review is dedicated to the description of HUD hardware and available HUD systems. It is the evident that technology is available to produce a HUD that meets all of the display criteria discussed in the first section, with the exception of optimal HUD image contrast with the brightest backgrounds. Popular perceptions of automotive HUDs are discussed in the third section of the review. People believe that HUDs would be beneficial for performing the driving task, but will require more experience with HUDs before being comfortable with them in their automobiles. Human performance with automotive HUDs is discussed in the final section of this review. Most assessments have investigated the effects of displaying speedometer information head-up. It has been found that people can monitor and extract information from a HUD speedometer ore rapidly and frequently than from a conventional speedometer, but that HUD speedometers do not affect speeding behavior. The most significant benefit of HUD speedometers is that they allow for quicker and more accurate reactions to roadway...

Book Head Up Displays  Designing the Way Ahead

Download or read book Head Up Displays Designing the Way Ahead written by Richard L. Newman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a thorough description of this increasingly important technology, starting from the development of head-up displays (HUDs), particularly specifications and standards and operational problems associated with HUD use. HUD involvement in spatial disorientation and its use in recognizing and recovering from unusual attitudes is discussed. The book summarizes the design criteria including hardware, software, interface and display criteria. It goes on to outline flight tasks to be used for evaluating HUDs and discusses the impact of HUDs on flight training. Recent work indicates that a HUD may allow a significant reduction in the time required to train a pilot on a particular aircraft, even considering non-HUD-related tasks. The author concludes with a review of unresolved HUD issues and recommendations for further research and provides an impressive bibliography, glossary and index. Within the military aviation sector the book will be of use to industry, research agencies, test pilot schools and air force training establishments. In the civil area regulatory authorities, airlines and industry will also have an increasing interest.

Book Liquid Crystal on Silicon Devices

Download or read book Liquid Crystal on Silicon Devices written by Andrés Márquez and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCoS) has become one of the most widespread technologies for spatial light modulation in optics and photonics applications. These reflective microdisplays are composed of a high-performance silicon complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) backplane, which controls the light-modulating properties of the liquid crystal layer. State-of-the-art LCoS microdisplays may exhibit a very small pixel pitch (below 4 μm), a very large number of pixels (resolutions larger than 4K), and high fill factors (larger than 90%). They modulate illumination sources covering the UV, visible, and far IR. LCoS are used not only as displays but also as polarization, amplitude, and phase-only spatial light modulators, where they achieve full phase modulation. Due to their excellent modulating properties and high degree of flexibility, they are found in all sorts of spatial light modulation applications, such as in LCOS-based display systems for augmented and virtual reality, true holographic displays, digital holography, diffractive optical elements, superresolution optical systems, beam-steering devices, holographic optical traps, and quantum optical computing. In order to fulfil the requirements in this extensive range of applications, specific models and characterization techniques are proposed. These devices may exhibit a number of degradation effects such as interpixel cross-talk and fringing field, and time flicker, which may also depend on the analog or digital backplane of the corresponding LCoS device. The use of appropriate characterization and compensation techniques is then necessary.

Book Practical Augmented Reality

Download or read book Practical Augmented Reality written by Steve Aukstakalnis and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most comprehensive and up-to-date guide to the technologies, applications and human factors considerations of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) systems and wearable computing devices. Practical Augmented Reality is ideal for practitioners and students concerned with any application, from gaming to medicine. It brings together comprehensive coverage of both theory and practice, emphasizing leading-edge displays, sensors, and DIY tools that are already available commercially or will be soon. Beginning with a Foreword by NASA research scientist Victor Luo, this guide begins by explaining the mechanics of human sight, hearing and touch, showing how these perceptual mechanisms (and their performance ranges) directly dictate the design and use of wearable displays, 3-D audio systems, and tactile/force feedback devices. Steve Aukstakalnis presents revealing case studies of real-world applications from gaming, entertainment, science, engineering, aeronautics and aerospace, defense, medicine, telerobotics, architecture, law enforcement, and geophysics. Readers will find clear, easy-to-understand explanations, photos, and illustrations of devices including the Atheer AiR, HTC Vive, DAQRI Smart Helmet, Oculus (Facebook) CV1, Sony PlayStation VR, Vuzix M300, Google Glass, and many more. Functional diagrams and photographs clearly explain how these devices operate, and link directly to relevant theoretical and practical content. Practical Augmented Reality thoroughly considers the human factors of these systems, including sensory and motor physiology constraints, monocular and binocular depth cues, elements contributing to visually-induced motion sickness and nausea, and vergence–accommodation conflicts. It concludes by assessing both the legal and societal implications of new and emerging AR, VR, and wearable technologies as well as provides a look next generation systems.

Book Microlens Arrays

Download or read book Microlens Arrays written by Dan Daly and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2000-11-23 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general trend towards miniaturisation and parallelism in optics and electro-optics has led to a requirement for arrays of sub-millimetre sized lenses. Thus, the demand for these microlens arrays has increased dramatically over recent years. Dan Daly's book describes the technology of microlens arrays and provides a recipe for producing them. It surveys the many fabrication techniques and discusses the numerous applications which either require or enhanced by the use of microlens arrays. This book gives a full description of the processes involved in production and limitations of the techniques. Processes looked at include the Thermal Reflow of Photoresist technique and the Silicon Elastomer Replication Process. As the measurement of microlenses is an intrinsic part of the production process, the methods which can be used to evaluate lens performance are explained.
