Abstract
A device, such as a heads up display, includes equipment for generating a virtual image in the field of view of an observer. The equipment includes at least one light source having a wavelength range less than 2 nm. The light source can be a low pressure gas discharge lamp. The device also includes a holographic optical element that provides a virtual image. The device also includes an image source, such as a mask or an LCD. In one embodiment the holographic optical element combines an image on a display with an ambient image. The holographic element provides multiple colors undistorted in a virtual image appearing to the observer as converging from the same distance.
