Abstract
A display device for a helmet-mounted visual system including an intensified image-taking device and a visor to combine the intensified images and an ambient scene before the pilot's eyes. The display device also includes an optical prism whose optical aberrations (image distortions, astigmatism) are capable of compensating for the aberrations created by the visor of the helmet, on the images given to the pilot.
