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.

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...

Download or read book Tactical Display for Soldiers written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-01-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the human factors issues associated with the development, testing, and implementation of helmet-mounted display technology in the 21st Century Land Warrior System. Because the framework of analysis is soldier performance with the system in the full range of environments and missions, the book discusses both the military context and the characteristics of the infantry soldiers who will use the system. The major issues covered include the positive and negative effects of such a display on the local and global situation awareness of the individual soldier, an analysis of the visual and psychomotor factors associated with each design feature, design considerations for auditory displays, and physical sources of stress and the implications of the display for affecting the soldier's workload. The book proposes an innovative approach to research and testing based on a three-stage strategy that begins in the laboratory, moves to controlled field studies, and culminates in operational testing.

Download or read book Head Up Displays and Attention Capture written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary role of head-up displays (HUDs) is to provide primary flight, navigation, and guidance information to the pilot in a forward field-of-view on a head-up transparent screen. Therefore, this theoretically allows for optimal control of an aircraft through the simultaneous scanning of both instrument data and the out-the-window scene. However, despite significant aviation safety benefits afforded by HUDs, a number of accidents have shown that their use does not come without costs. The human factors community has identified significant issues related to the pilot distribution of near and far domain attentional resources because of the compellingness of symbology elements on the HUD; a concern termed, attention or cognitive capture. The paper describes the phenomena of attention capture and presents a selected survey of the literature on the etiology and potential prescriptions.Prinzel, Lawrence J., III and Risser, MatthewLangley Research CenterHUMAN FACTORS ENGINEERING; AIRCRAFT SAFETY; HEAD-UP DISPLAYS; ETIOLOGY; INFORMATION; OPTIMAL CONTROL; FIELD OF VIEW
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.

Download or read book Human Factors Issues in Head up Display Design the Book of HUD written by Daniel J. Weintraub and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1946, Lt Col Paul Fitts reported that 'It has been proposed ... to throw the image of certain instruments onto the wind screen so that they might be viewed while looking out of the plane.' J.M. Naish of the Royal Aircraft Establishment was a prime mover in the conception and development of head-up displays (HUDs). In 1960 the first operational HUD (other than gunsight reticles) was flown in the Hawker-Siddeley Buccaneer. What has happened since? This SOAR will examine the human factors aspects of the current state of the art in HUDs. The purpose of this report is to present the current state of the art for HUDs. Therefore we have gathered and evaluated the display literature relevant to HUD design and where possible provided specific values for display parameters based on the capabilities and limitations of the human user. On the applied side, the report is intended to be of interest to planners, developers, and designers of HUDs. Surveying the state of the art also includes evaluating the evidence upon which HUD design is based. Since HUDs represent a technological leap that intensifies the complexity of the interaction between displayed information and human performance, the discussion of the underlying issues is also intended to interest human-factors researchers and theorists.
