The HUDs will be integrated into aircraft cockpit systems, adding features such as wide field-of-view, high image resolution, low system latency and lower weight.
The HUD system helps pilots with increased situational awareness, especially at night or in difficult weather conditions.

Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
