Abstract

A wide field of view goggle system with a pair of viewing channels that are mounted on a platform and are constrained for relative lateral and angular movement. Control mechanisms are provided for adjustment of the interpupillary distance between the channels and the angular position of the channels relative to one another. An instantaneous wide field of view is provided by relative angular orientation of the viewing channels in a common, overlapping field of view.
