H.U.D HEAD UP DISPLAY
Head Up Display, also known as HUD, is a transparent
glass screen that displays all essential information in order to fulfill a
mission in the pilot’s visual field. For optimal effectiveness, its primary
function is to keep the pilot focused on the target ahead without having to
take the eyes off their line of sight. Considered as both technological and
safety equipment, the HUD takes on the augmented reality concept. With HUD
displaying digital data onto the windshield, pilots can be alerted about
everything from the horizon line, altitude or speed to navigation aids such as
the flight path vector that indicates the direction the jet is taking.
AN AVANT-GARDE INSTRUMENT A UNIQUE WATCH
The design of the BR 03-92 HUD embodies the spirit of
Bell & Ross’ Instrument watches. In a contemporary style, the black matte
ceramic case features the iconic “circle in a square” that evokes the
silhouette of an aircraft cockpit clock. The design approach of the HUD display
hides a treasure chest of sophistication: technical and graphical tools, and
tips to translate this display type into the tiny scale of an analog mechanical
watch was a very innovative achievement of the brand’s creative studio.
Intense LUM Legibility
There is more than
meets the eye to obtain this uncompromising result. There are some special
coatings that are worth noting on this timepiece. By using the green color,
Bell & Ross recreates the graphic style of this Instrument as closely as
possible. The green on the dial mirrors the “computer-type” display of the HUD,
and the anti-reflective matte black background of the cases provides a striking
contrast. The tinted sapphire crystal is obtained through a green pigment
coating technique that is applied on its underside. Thanks to its augmented
display design, the BR 03‑92 HUD offers watch aficionados a new perception of
time.
