Some kinda cool heads-up windshield display for truckers?

Me likey!

 

It's Photoshoped.

If it were real you would be able to see the contrast in the colors and numbers on the windshield, reflecting the windshields shape. I find it suspect though the numbers and information on the left has a different transparency than the map in the center of the picture.

I may be wrong? but it just doesn't look right.

 

Just like this is photoshoped

 

Perhaps it is, but it is pretty accurate.

1667.1 / 25:45:19

This would be the elapsed time and miles for the trip. The math would make the average speed just under 65mph.

289.1 / 4:41:22

That would be the miles to go and ETA. FYI it works out to 65.5mph which is the current speed.

11:29:54 mdt

Current time, Mountain Daylight Time.

For this to work logically the road would have to always be displayed as east/west otherwise the overlay would block the road view. Strange that a compass is missing. A grade indicator would be nice too.

Likely it is a Photoshop, but cool nonetheless

 

Here's a low tech HUD that is currently out:

And Microsoft filed a patent for an even more elaborate windshield HUD:

Which would inevitably end up like this.

 

Actually, I think it's a screen shot from one of those 18 wheeler computer games. I think I've seen a similar shot in a magazine.

 

It looks like one of those simulators that a big cdl school might use.

 

There is a bag of chips on the dashboard.
