Abstract:
A space suit helmet capable of meeting the demands of future space suit helmet display requirements in a decoupled-helmet, helmet-mounted design with sufficient eye relief is provided. A display system and a redirecting assembly are coupled together and mounted to the helmet. The display system generates an image and the redirecting assembly orients the image with respect to a predetermined valid eye location volume within the helmet.
Abstract:
A system and method for controlling a proximity display system by providing the ability to rapidly blank and un-blank the display is provided. The system and method enable modifying, blanking and un-blanking in response to the detected location of the viewer's eye. The system and method optionally provide the viewer with cueing information that directs the viewer's eye toward the eyebox in response to detecting that the viewer's eye is out of the eyebox.

Abstract:
A compact proximity display system and method that employs an image transfer device is provided. The system and method employs an image transfer device, such as a fiber optic device, which enables remotely locating an image generating source from the display assembly that is mounted on, or proximate to, the helmet bubble, thereby reducing the amount of components located proximate to the helmet bubble. The system and method minimize the intrusion of the entire display system into user's viewing area, and increase safety.
