The MVSC “InLand Mobile” display system is an advanced, conformal* 3D, volumetric Head Up Display system designed to be small and robust enough for fleet-wide police and first-responder deployment, accurate to < 1 meter, and cost engineered to become – very soon – a standard tool for ordinary as well as military drivers, pilots and mariners. 2 or three years should see it on our roads. We’re negotiating with Big 3 and foreign auto companies as well as defense contractors to fully commercialize the system. “InLand” capabilities are exceptional. It can generate still or motion graphics at 60fps, re-cast aerial recon imagery, video, or generate a “guide wire” navigational line using high quality GPS. Previously considered unaffordable for ordinary drivers, 3D HUD now CAN make it into our cars, showing objects at distances from a few feet to infinity in the landscape. The difference is a highly unusual optical design, patents pending, and a team dedicated to pushing this to public markets by keeping our eyes firmly on cost control as well as quality.
* In a conformal display, images appear to “conform to” a true location in the landscape ahead, at appropriate depth cues. NASA pilot studies confirm that conformal display is essential to promoting maximum situational awareness and reducing tunneling caused by “head down” console maps and 2D windshield “pseudo HUD” displays that require the eye and brain to refocus many times between “car” and “road.”
Rendered as a translucent overlay InLand will display safety and navigational symbols at appropriate depths from your car and your eyes. Collision warnings generated byDSRC may enter the HUD looking something like this:
