The Four Categories Of Heads-Up Displays

Introduction

Heads-up displays are the best way for your customers to interact with your product, but many different kinds of HUDs exist. So which is right for you? Here’s a quick rundown of four main categories of heads-up displays: Virtual Reality (VR), Mixed Reality (MR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Hybrid Heads-up Display (HHD).

The Four Categories Of Heads-Up Displays

Virtual Reality

VR is a computer generated simulation of a 3D environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical way by a person using special electronic equipment (e.g., a helmet with a screen inside or gloves fitted with sensors).

Mixed Reality

Mixed reality is the most immersive of all the types of heads-up displays. It allows you to see both the real world and virtual objects at the same time, meaning that you can interact with them in real time. The best example of this is Microsoft’s HoloLens, which has been used in many industries including construction and healthcare. Mixed reality HUDS are also popular among gamers because they allow users to play games while remaining aware of their surroundings (like if there were someone knocking on your door).

Augmented Reality

Augmented reality is a technology that superimposes computer-generated imagery (CGI) on top of a real-world environment. It’s used to enhance one’s current perception of reality and it can be done with or without the use of special equipment.

The first thing that comes to mind when you hear the phrase “augmented reality” is probably Pokemon Go, which was released in 2016 for iOS and Android devices as an augmented reality mobile game developed by Niantic Inc., published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo Co.,Ltd. The game allows players to capture virtual creatures called Pokémon through GPS technology in order to train them for battle against other players’ creatures at various locations throughout the world.[1]

Hybrid Heads-up Display

Hybrid heads-up display is a combination of the other three categories. It’s the most common type and it can be used in many different industries, such as aviation and medicine. Hybrid displays are also used in gaming and entertainment.

The heads up display’s market is evolving fast.

The heads up display’s market is evolving fast. The technology has been around for decades, but it wasn’t until recently that it started to gain traction in the consumer electronics industry. While there are still some limitations in terms of size and cost, the market is growing rapidly as companies begin to realize how useful this technology can be in a variety of different applications–from gaming consoles to automobiles and beyond.

The rise of mobile devices like smartphones has also played an important role in driving innovation within this sector over recent years; after all, these devices rely heavily on touchscreens for inputting information into them (and often feature other types of displays as well). As such, many consumers are already familiar with having access to information displayed through their phones’ screens at any given moment–and therefore may not even realize how much better things could get once they start using something like GoogleGlass instead!

Conclusion

Heads-up displays are changing the way we interact with technology. They allow us to get information without having to take our eyes off of what we’re doing and look down at a screen. This is especially helpful when driving or performing other tasks that require concentration on both hands and eyes.
