MONITORING AND CONFIRMING INFORMATION IN AN IMAGE

Data presented in a visual image is monitored and verified. A processing component 104 receives data from sensors and other sources, and interprets the data to generate processed data. A render component 106 generates a visual image based on the processed data. A projector component 108 projects the image, which is received by a splitter component 112 that splits the light stream of the image and routes a portion of light energy to the display screen viewed by the user and another portion of the light energy to a data verification component (DVC) 114. DVC 114 interprets information presented in the image to determine the data being presented to the user by the image. DVC 114 also receives the processed data from the processing component 104. DVC 114 compares the data determined from the image to the processed data to determine whether they match and takes appropriate responsive action if they do not match.
