A test installation capable of static and dynamic measurements on a helmet mounted sight and display (HMS/D) during simulated helicopter motion, by means of a steerable camera rotation framework was built. The rotation frame is gyro controlled and moves about two axes (in pitch and yaw). The HMS/D generates the helmet line of sight referred to the simulator platform (the aircraft based system) in terms of azimuth and elevation. Through the helmet mounted display, using a semitransparent mirror, an electronically produced cross hair (the helmet mounted sight) is superimposed on the image in the right eye of the pilot. The TV picture is also reflected into his eye, enabling him to aim at a target on the sensor image. Test equipment accuracy is 40 min in azimuth, 20 min in elevation.
