Abstract
A head mounted communication system provides interactive visual and audio communications between a user of the head mounted system and an operator of a remote system. The head mounted system includes a camera to pick up an image within the user's field of view. A display and optics are provided for projecting an enlarged image of displayed information at a distance from the user so as to be superimposed on the user's view of the real world. The system also includes a transmitter and receiver for providing two-way wireless communication between the head mounted system and the remote system so as to allow the operator of the remote system to see what the user of the head mounted system is viewing and to allow the user of the head mounted system to view via the display and optics video inputs received from the remote system so that they appear to be superimposed upon the real world.
