OutGear Heads-Up Mapping Display
The Heads-Up Mapping Device was developed to aid city paramilitary forces and civil services in navigation throughout urban structures. It has since been developed for any environment. Its common uses range from navigating cleanup crews through urban sewers to resource teams tracking geothermal ducting in the wilderness. The main unit is available in eihter an external portable unit or an internal cyberware version. Both can be linked to external or cyberware display links. The exact location of the user is obtained through a signal from one of the many orbiting global positioning satellites and converts it into grid coordinates. These grid coordinates are then used to determine position within maps stored in the unit's expandable map processor. Maps are fed into the processor using either datasofts or storage disks. The combination of coordinates and map imaging is used to project either a 3D image of the surrounding area or a top-down image of the same upon the display link. This makes navigation at night or in obscured environments much more efficient. The 3D image can be adjusted for viewing in wireframe, transparent shaded, or solid shaded mode. The detail available in the display is limited to details in the map file used for navigation. If a general map is used to navigate a structure or landscape, then only general structural features may be viewed. If a more complex map is used, more detailed information may be viewed such as locations of power conduits, ventilation ducts, underground streams, cave systems, or other unseen physical structures. The ability to zoom in and out of images and adjust detail level allows the wearer to focus only on the parts needed or zoom out to scan entire areas. Another feature recently developed for use in military and paramilitary forces is the ability to link the unit into any of the available tactical computers, directly or remotely, and provide tactical information upon the displayed map image. Vital information such as optimal locations, unit relation locations, and general distances are easily accessible. Suggested Price: See Below Game Information - External Unit
