Research abstract
A program to investigate symbology and symbology-stabilization concepts for helmet-mounted dispays (HMD) has been proposed. The present implementation of HMD symbology as defined in MIL-STD-1295 has been found to cause increased pilot workload and may present hazardously misleading cues in some instances. The Phase I program will identify unresolved issues and propose candidate solutions for correcting these problems. The Phase II effort will conduct ground simulation and inflight evaluations of these candidate solutions. A strawman HMD design standard will be developed.
