Methods and systems for automatic parallax compensation for helmet mounted imaging sensors used for augmented or extended reality displays

A system for compensating for parallax in an image displayed on a display of a head-worn device, the system comprising:

• a first detector configured to determine first information indicative of a geographic space;
• a second detector configured to determine second information indicative of a geographic space;
• a display;
• and
• a computing system including a processor and a memory, the memory including instructions executable by the processor to:
• determine locations of one or more landmarks in a geographic space relative to a location of a user of the HWD based on the first information indicative of the geographic space;
• generate a map of the one or more landmarks in the geographic space;
• orient the second information indicative of the geographic space relative to the map;
• shift at least a portion of second information indicative of the geographic space to produce modified image data;
• and
• project the modified image data onto the display.

A method for compensating for parallax in an image displayed on a display of a head-worn device (HWD), the method comprising:

• determining locations of one or more landmarks in a geographic space relative to a location of a user of the HWD based on first information indicative of the geographic space determined by a detector;
• generating a map of the one or more landmarks in the geographic space;
• shifting at least a portion of first information indicative of the geographic space determined by the detector to produce modified image data;
• and
• projecting the modified image data onto the screen of the head-worn device.
