Abstract
A highly visible overlay system may include a display system and contrasting visible element configuration components configured to define contrasting visible elements. An imaging component is configured to capture an image of a target scene for display. A processing component is configured to construct the plurality of contrasting visual elements in accordance with a visual acuity factor, and generate an electronic overlay constructed of the contrasting visual elements. A display component is configured to display the constructed overlay in combination with the image of the target scene, with the overlay being displayed as an overlay on the image of the target scene. The contrasting visual elements may include a white block and a black block, configured to satisfy visual acuity factor, display configuration and field of view information.
