Abstract
We describe a highly portable head-mounted display designed for use in action sports such as skiing and snowboarding. The low field-of-view, monocular display is designed to keep distraction to a minimum and not impede the mobility of the wearer. Implications of the location of the monocular display are discussed. The driving electronics and power source are small enough so that no tethering is needed, all electronics are attached to the display.
