Abstract

The technology described herein relates to a visual communication system for a helmet mounted visual communication and navigation system. A visual communication system may include a pointing laser on a vision module pointing forward in a direction of a user's point of view (POV), a rear communication light configured to project light in a backward direction from the user's POV, a graphical user interface (GUI) on a heads up display (HUD), and user control buttons configured to control the pointing laser, the rear communication light, and elements of the GUI. Users of such a visual communication system may include emergency response personnel and critical workers, and the GUI may display various vision modes directed to situations that may arise out of an emergency response, military, law enforcement, public safety effort or mission.
