Abstract

A vehicle simulation system has an image system for projecting a simulated out-the-window scene and symbology as produced by a head-up display onto a viewing screen (13). A dummy beamsplitting or combiner structure (11) is positioned so that the user can view the scene with the head-up display symbology through it. A filtering structure (39) is provided on the combiner structure to prevent the user from viewing the head-up display symbology outside the combiner structure.
