| Abstract: |
A virtual reality system (860-862) stereoscopically projects virtual reality images including a three dimensional image (960, 962) having an interface image (962) in a space observable by a user (100). The display system includes a substantially transparent display (862) which also allows real images of real objects (950) to be combined or superimposed with the virtual reality images. Selective areas or characteristics of the real images are obstructed (893, 893') by a selective real image obstructer (860) to enhance viewing of selected virtual reality images while providing for viewing or real images or virtual images combined with real images in other viewing areas. Icons (FIG. 21) are displayed opposite the real image obstructions in order that a second person can ascertain the nature of the information viewed by the viewer.
