Patent ID: 6906725

Claim:
A system for displaying a field of view representing values of a simulated data variable, said system comprising: an image generator comprising a computer having an output and transmitting thereon a video signal comprising at least two simulation generated digital data channels; and a display system connected with the output of the image generator and receiving said channels of digital data therefrom; said display system including a combiner circuit receiving and processing the channels of data; said display system further having a visual display device connected with the combiner circuit and displaying video imagery derived from said video signal in a field of pixels so as to be viewable by a user; said digital data channels of the video signal from the image generator each comprising a plurality of bit sets each corresponding to a respective location in the field of view and having a preset number of bits of digital data therein; the bit sets of the first channel each representing a respective value of the simulated data variable at a first resolution, and the bit sets of the second channel each representing a respective value of the simulated data variable at a second resolution higher than the first resolution.
