SA Photonics Delivers First PilotVision™ Augmented Reality Display

Press Release

SA Photonics Delivers First PilotVision™ Augmented Reality Display

February 20, 2020

LOS GATOS, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–SA Photonics, one of the world’s leading designers and manufacturers of augmented reality (AR) head mounted displays, is pleased to announce the first commercial sale of its PilotVision™ AR display. The headset-mounted system, designed for commercial aviation, was announced at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh in August 2019. Fly Elite, a Pennsylvania flight training, FBO and maintenance provider, has received the first order to aid its training program.

PilotVision
SA Photonics’ All New PilotVision™ Augmented Reality System for Communications Headsets

PilotVision clips on to a set of communications headgear and provides unmatched situational awareness via high brightness symbology over a very large 62-degree field of view, with almost zero peripheral obscuration. When not needed, PilotVision can be rotated up to its stow position, just like a boom microphone. The AR display interfaces with a standard attitude and heading reference system (AHRS), and does not need to be plugged in to aircraft electronics—allowing installation in seconds. PilotVision was designed by the same team that designed the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter head mounted display as well as the JHMCS head mounted display used on the F-15, F-16 and F/A-18 fighter jets, but sells for a fraction of the price. PilotVision uses flight symbology and synthetic vision provided by Adventure Pilot, creators of the iFly GPS™ electronic flight bag (EFB) software.

“We are very excited to implement PilotVision into our training program,” says James Rouiller, President of Fly Elite. “The capabilities PilotVision provides will not only dramatically increase our pilots’ and students’ situational awareness, but also their overall flight experience.”

PilotVision is commercially available now. For more information, please visit SA Photonics’ website:
