Rockwell Collins debuts helmet-mounted Integrated Digital Vision System by Geoff Ziezulewicz Adelaide, Australia (UPI) Sep 6, 2016
Rockwell Collins debuted its new combat helmet-mounted Integrated Digital Vision System for troops on Tuesday. The new gear combines mission data and multi-spectral vision into an advanced display system while offering a 24/7, hands-free, seamless transition from dark to light environments, Rockwell said in a statement. The announcement of the array was made at Land Forces 2016 in Adelaide, Australia. The system is the first hands-free, helmet-mounted display system that fuses incoming data from various sources such as a command center, other troops or drones with multi-spectral vision. It does all that while automatically transitioning in real time from dark to light environs. The system build's upon Rockwell's aerospace and defense vision technologies, which include the F-35 Lightning II helmet and civil aircraft head-up displays. The vision system is designed with an open architecture to provide an upgrade path for future technologies, Rockwell said.
