ABSTRACT
This chapter relates performance, safety, and utility attributes of the retinal scanning display (RSD) as employed in a helmet-mounted pilot-vehicle interface, and by association, in panel-mounted head up display (HUD) and head down display (HDD) applications. Because RSD component technologies are advancing so rapidly, quantitative analyses and design aspects are referenced to permit a more complete description here of the first high-performance RSD system developed for helicopters.
