1. A method for operating a near-to-eye (NTE) display movably coupled to a headset, the method comprising:
- generating information representative of at least one spatial degree of freedom of the NTE display relative to at least one spatial degree of freedom of the headset based on a single camera sensing two reference elements of the NTE display relative to two reference elements of the headset;
receiving the information representative of at least one spatial degree of freedom of the NTE display relative to at least one spatial degree of freedom of the headset within an environment;
determining spatial coordinates of the NTE display relative to the headset within the environment based on said received information; and
adjusting a conformal appearance of an image or a symbol representing a conformal component on the NTE display based on the spatial coordinates of the NTE display relative to the headset.

Abstract
Methods and system for operating a near-to-eye (NTE) display movably coupled to a headset are provided. Information representative of at least one spatial degree of freedom of the NTE display relative to at least one spatial degree of freedom of the headset is received. Spatial coordinates of the NTE display are determined based on said received information. The NTE display is controlled based on the spatial coordinates of the NTE display.

6. An avionics system comprising:
-
a headset comprising a frame configured to be worn on a head of a user;
a near-to-eye (NTE) display movably coupled to the frame of the headset;a single sensor and two reference elements of the frame and two reference elements of the NTE display configured to generate information representative of at least one spatial degree of freedom of the NTE display relative to at least one spatial degree of freedom of the frame; and a controller in operable communication with the NTE display, the controller being configured to; receive the information representative of at least one spatial degree of freedom of the NTE display relative to at least one spatial degree of freedom of the frame within an environment; determine spatial coordinates of the NTE display relative to the frame within the environment based on said received information; and adjust a conformal appearance of an image or a symbol representing a conformal component on the NTE display based on the spatial coordinates of the NTE display relative to the frame. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9)
