Abstract :
This paper compares the readability and color performance of LED- and laser-based head-up displays (HUDs) for various ambient light conditions. Using formal color models with reference to automotive standards, it is shown that HUDs employing laser sources exhibit superior performance in terms of readability and chromaticity compared to TFT-LCD systems based on white or RGB LEDs.
