Abstract
A method of displaying compass headings includes the steps of: assigning specific colors to at least the four primary directional points North, East, South and West of a compass; and emitting the assigned colors from a single light source (e.g., a tri-colored LED) to visually indicate a current compass heading or orientation of a person, object, vehicle or craft (e.g., boat, airplane, helicopter or drone). The method may further include use of coded flashes of one or more colors to indicate compass points while minimizing the number of assigned colors for ease of memorization.
