Overview (resum en anglès): | |
Nowadays, there is an arising need to create new graphic display systems that allow the user to receive information, without diverting their attention away from the environment they are in. To solve this challenge, the most advanced developments point to the use of 'Head Up Display' and 'Near Eye Display' devices. As these are transparent display elements, they allow digital information to be integrated with the environment, without resulting in interference or distraction. This type of research is focused on both private users and professional environments.
This project aims to address the problem posed and create a 'Head Up Display' architecture that is economical, portable, integrated into a goggle or helmet type format wich has a sufficiently long usage time and interacts easily with platforms such as Android and IOS using waveguides or holographic foils as an optical system, thus achieving an architecture at the height of current developments in this field. Compatibility with Android and IOS would make this system unique. Since there are millions of applications developed for these systems that could be used them directly. For this task, the following scheme of work will be followed. Firstly, the possible solutions will be studied and analysed, in terms of hardware, software and optics, in order to choose wisely the components to optimize the prototype to be designed. Later, the designs will be integrated into a physical assembly. Finally, the prototype will be tested using 'CARDIO THERMAL VISOR' application , developed in parallel by Gabriel Iglesias, in his final degree work 'Adaptation and application of HUD technology for the fire brigade'. This application is based on the sensorization of the environment and the vital signs of the Firefighter, which after processing will be shown in the 'Head Up Display' architecture. In conclusion, this project aims to show the design, assembly and testing process of a HUD architecture. |
