1. An augmented reality (AR) hazard display, comprising:
- a user-tracking subsystem for locating a user'"'"'s position in real-time;
a communication subsystem for receiving real-time hazard data from at least one sensor;
a processing subsystem configured to convert the user'"'"'s position and the hazard data into augmented reality (AR) messages; and
an interface subsystem to convey the AR messages to the user.

Abstract
Disclosed is a device, system, and method utilizing augmented-reality (AR) for safety. The AR safety system generates hazard-response messages in response to sensor data in order to help users understand and response to hazards in work environments in an intuitive and effective way. The AR safety system fuses a plurality of technologies. These technologies include person location/tracking, hazard detection/tracking, and augmented reality (i.e., AR).

20. A computer-implemented method for generating an augmented-reality (AR) hazard-response message, the method comprising:
-
gathering hazard data from at least one sensor; gathering user-position data from at least one user-tracking sensor; capturing images from a camera aligned with a user'"'"'s sight line; and generating an AR hazard-response message from the hazard data, the user-position data, and the captured images.
