WOW!
Cool, Technology is really getting interesting.
I think it would be cool if this technology was used in trains and jets too.
Imagine flying when you dont see the plane!

This is a manifestation of a sci-fi technology I envisioned for a never-realized amateur movie story line I had going many decades ago.

I was piecing together some plot elements for a Super8 film project that would allow me to exercise my camera's special effects capabilities. It was to involve a protagonist who builds a flying saucer type vehicle. The saucer would have no windows. Instead, he would wear a helmet equipped with a visor that, in combination with equipment built into the saucer's dome, would allow him to see "through" the dome as if it were transparent.

I've thought about that concept myself, Wayne.

If the goal is to allow a pilot to see what's around his aircraft, it makes a lot more sense for him to be able to look in any direction and see what's around him, rather than looking through a windshield or a view screen that severely limits his field of vision.

And having the instrument readouts also be part of his heads-up display makes more sense too, although designing the display so that the readouts didn't obscure too much of his view would be tricky.

I wish you'd made your movie so you could put it on YouTube and share it with us.
