Abstract
A system for characterizing a visor mounted to a helmet, the helmet having at least one projector for directing light to reflect off the visor to image to an eye position, is described. The system includes a mounting structure configured to mount an image detector to the helmet, the image detector arranged to detect an image at the eye position, and a controller. The controller is configured to provide a test pattern, receive a detected image from the image detector disposed at an eye position based on the test pattern, compare the detected image to the test pattern to determine a characterization error corresponding to a distortion of the detected image, determine a correction function to correct the distortion, and correct for the distortion based on the correction function.
