Seriously? It's a representation of a capability, said representation done at a relatively low cost. Surely one can imagine how the augmented parts of reality would maintain their proper positions in one's field of view as that FOV shifted during scans.
Or, perhaps not. Not everyone is good at imagining things. I actually have a few hours of seat time in an augmented reality system (for ground vehicles, not air). Done right (and this one was), it's truly Next Level Stuff. Absolutely transformational, in every sense of the buzzword.
Done right, I'd fly with that capability in a heartbeat. Fighter pilots have it now for finding targets. Civilians need that, except we call it "traffic"
, plus symbology for clearly visualizing airspace. This is the future.
