Abstract

A method, medium and system for compensating for parallax in transparent, semi-transparent, or opaque display components of a headband, headgear, head-worn device, or helmet-mounted device. A method for compensating for parallax in an image displayed on a display of a head-worn device (HWD) may include determining locations of one or more landmarks in a geographic space relative to a location of a user of the HWD based on first information indicative of the geographic space; generating a map of the one or more landmarks in the geographic space; receiving second information indicative of the geographic space; orienting the second information indicative of the geographic space relative to the map; shifting at least a portion of first or second information indicative of the geographic space to produce modified image data; and projecting the modified image data onto the screen of the head-worn device.
