Patent Images
1. A head mountable display system for use at a work site, comprising:
- a visual image system mounted on a machine for generating image data from a plurality of points of view relative to the machine;
a head mountable display device configured to be mounted on an operator'"'"'s head, the head mountable display device including a display screen;
a headset pose sensor system associated with the head mountable display device for generating headset pose signals indicative of a position and an orientation of the head mountable display device relative to the work site; and
a controller configured to;
receive the image data from the visual image system;
generate a camera image based upon the image data;
generate an augmented reality overlay based upon the position and the orientation of the operator'"'"'s head relative to the work site;
determine an image to be rendered on the head mountable display device based upon the camera image and the augmented reality overlay; and
render the image on the display screen.

Abstract
A head mountable display system includes a visual image system, a head mountable display device including a display screen, and a headset pose sensor system. A controller is configured to generate a camera image based upon the image data, generate an augmented reality overlay based upon the position and the orientation of the operator'"'"'s head relative to the work site, determine an image to be rendered on the head mountable display based upon the camera image and the augmented reality overlay, and render the image on the display screen.

14. A controller-implemented method of rendering images on a head mountable display system of an operator at a work site, comprising:
-
receiving image data from a visual image system mounted on a machine for generating image data from a plurality of points of view relative to the machine; generating a camera image based upon the image data; generating an augmented reality overlay based upon a position and an orientation of an operator'"'"'s head relative to the work site; determining an image to be rendered on a head mountable display based upon the camera image and the augmented reality overlay; and rendering the image on display screen of the head mountable display device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
