MAIN VIEWER

	At the very front of the bridge chamber is located a large (4.8 x 2.5 
meter) visual display panel. This main viewer is generally used to display the 
output of one of the forward optical scanners, but can easily be reset for any 
other visual, informational, or communciations use. When in communications 
mode, the main viewer shares the use of a dedicated subprocessor, which 
permits near-instantaneous conversion and display of nearly any visual 
communications format. The main viewer display matrix includes omni-
holographic display elements and is thus capable of displaying three-
dimensional information.  Æ
