Abstract

A transparent flexible display film is applied to a vehicle windshield, either as a film applied to the surface of the windshield or as a layer in the laminated glass comprising the windshield. A connected computer renders a synthesized view of the external environment around the vehicle, including visual representations of information received from an on-board data sensor or from an external source. No special glasses or helmets are required for the operators and if the system fails, the display film is transparent and will not impede the operators view.
