ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a head up display apparatus particularly for use by the pilot of an aircraft including a cathode ray tube to display visual information to the pilot, means for mounting the cathode ray tube on the head of the pilot and a combiner also mounted on the pilot's head to superimpose an image of the displayed information on the pilots view. The apparatus includes a visual information relay system with a visual information source and display means arranged to view the visual information source and operatively connected with the cathode ray tube to display the visual information so viewed. The relay system includes a component arranged to be mounted at a fixed position and a component arranged to be mounted on the pilot's head so that a change of angular position of the pilots head produces a change of position of the visual information relative to the display means and a corresponding change of position of the display of the information on the cathode ray tube.
