The purpose of this Phase II SBIR program is to design and fabricate a prototype head-mounted display which meets the Air Force requirements and may be transitioned into fielded cockpit and training display systems. The program will first define requirements based on feasibility data generated during Phase I, and will then proceed to design and fabricate hardware needed to demonstrate a working prototype model. The display will outperform all commercially available units in terms of parameters such as field of view, resolution, eye relief, and "see-through" capability, and will thus provide the U.S. warfighter a distinct technical advantage. The successful conclusion of this effort will establish a low-risk basis for launching a limited quantity military head-mounted display production program which may eventually result in commercial applications.
