This paper aims to describe the design constraints on the imager and display systems of head mounted devices and tele-operated systems based upon the capabilities of the human visual system. We also present the experimental results of methods to improve the amount of visual information conveyed to a user when trying to display a high dynamic range image on a low dynamic range display.

Introduction Imagers are commonly designed with the goal of producing a system with the lowest power, widest dynamic range, fastest frame rates, etc. However with frame rates of 10,000 fps [1,2] and dynamic ranges 160 dB [3-5], one must ask what are the best capabilities one can desire in a
