Laser-Hologram Multicolor Moving Map Display System
Abstract
The report describes the results of the work performed under an exploratory development program designed to establish the techniques required to present a multicolor moving map display to a pilot in an aircraft cockpit environment. A system for producing a full color display 6 inches in diameter with the provision for translating and rotating the image has been postulated and its feasibility demonstrated. Methods of presenting symbols on the display have also been postulated. During the course of the program, a holographic recording technique was selected which allowed playback of the information using white light sounds. A storage material was selected and a large volume duplication technique described. Tradeoffs were established to define the optimum method for providing display motion and symbol insertion.
