Method and System for Stereoscopic Simulation of a Performance of a Head-Up Display (HUD)

摘要

Methods and systems for simulating performance of a head-up display (HUD) are provided. An example method comprises receiving images of symbology for display by a head-up display, generating distortions to the images as perceived from observer locations through the head-up display, and the distortions are based on design characteristics of an optical component of the head-up display with respect to a model of a projection of the images. The method also includes applying the distortions to the images to generate modified images, and the modified images represent a view of the head-up display corresponding to respective observer locations. The method further includes providing, for stereoscopic display, the modified images overlaying onto a background image. An example system comprises a storage device, a head tracking device to determine the observer location, and a projector to project the modified images onto a display corresponding to the determined observer location.
