SA Photonics, one of the world's leading designers and manufacturers of augmented reality head mounted displays, is pleased to introduce its newest product PilotVision at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019. PilotVision clips on to a set of communications headgear and provides unmatched situational awareness via high brightness symbology over a very large 62-degree field of view, with almost zero peripheral obscuration.
When not needed, PilotVision can be rotated up to its stow position, just like a boom microphone. PilotVision interfaces with a standard attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) and does not need to be plugged in to aircraft electronics, so that it can be installed in seconds.
PilotVision was designed by the same team that designed the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter head mounted display as well as the JHMCS head mounted display used on the F-15, F-16 and F/A-18 fighter jets, but sells for a fraction of the price. PilotVision uses flight symbology and synthetic vision provided by Adventure Pilot, creators of the iFly GPS electronic flight bag (EFB) software.
