Enhanced User Evaluation and Demonstration of the Combat Vehicle Crew Helmet-Mounted Display (CVCHMD) System

Abstract

This report describes testing of the Combat Vehicle Crew Helmet-Mounted Display (CVCHMD) Enhanced User System, which was developed to provide electronic battlefield information to a tank commander who is out of the hatch. The information is presented to the commander on a helmet-mounted display using formats similar to those used on displays inside the tank. The enhanced user system was tested over three weeks at the Army's Mounted Warfare Battle Laboratory using the Distributed Interactive Simulation facility. The CVCHMD enhanced user system provides the tank commander with long-range situational awareness without sacrificing short-range situational awareness.
