[simpits-tech] Head Up Display pics...

[Alan D. Mazurka]

Hi,

transparent EL, if applied to the HUD glass will not work exactly like a 
HUD does.

the focus of 'real' HUD info appears at 'infinity' - that is why you see it 
(and the background) in focus at the same time. depending on the distance 
to your display, your eyes would have to re-focus to see HUD data on a 
transparent EL system.

i'm not sure if the information, itself also occurs at infinity. a symbol 
representing a bogie actually appears ON the bogie, no matter how you 
orient your head to the view in these types of systems.

the two above phenomena are what really appeal to HUD displays. getting the 
two to coincide (in the bogie sense) might be quite the challenge for us 
builders.

nonetheless, transparent EL will no doubt have some interesting 
applications in home-build.
