Compass Preview Advanced Design and Verification

Abstract

The effort performed under this Advanced Design and Verification study was a logical continuation of the preliminary design to further validate and verify the design of the Viewing Module, the critical subsystem through which the imagery is displayed. The effort included the construction and testing of an optical mockup incorporating a Viewing Module and a stereo projection system fabricated to meet the optical design parameters of Compass Preview. Additionally, design studies were conducted to determine the feasibility and desirability of incorporating a low magnification viewing mode into the system to provide for full frame-width film viewing while retaining the annotation capability.
