HELMETS AND HEAD-UP DISPLAYS

Abstract

The invention relates to a helmet shield and a shield used as a projection screen for a head-up display device. The shield consists of an objective lens and an eyepiece. The eyepiece is positioned above the objective lens. The objective lens reflects the image to be displayed on the head-up display device located in front-below the helmet; the image is reflected by the objective lens and then projected onto the eyepiece; subsequently, the image is reflected by the eyepiece to the rear of the eyepiece. The aforementioned arrangement reduces the number of electronic components attached to the helmet and also relates to a design involving the head-up display device and the helmet.
