A low cost video see-through head mounted display for increased situation awareness in an augmented environment

• A head mounted display is developed for use in an augmented reality immersive simulator for virtual training. The simulator requires a video see-through parallax-free display to accurately mix the real and virtual worlds. High field of view is also required to allow use of peripheral vision in order to create a higher sense of awareness for the user. Due to high cost associated with commercial off-the-shelf display systems, a custom solution is designed and developed by combining hardware and software. It’s shown that it’s possible to build a low cost display system that provides the necessary attributes and acceptable compromises for the current type of application.
