Methods and systems for augmented reality safe visualization during performance of tasks

Systems and methods for augmented reality (AR) safe visualization for use with a near to eye (NTE) display system worn by a user are provided. The system includes: a processor programmed with an AR program and a task database storing task data; and, a camera mounted to the NTE display system and providing video input. The processor receives the video input and coordinates video image processing of the video input to identify therein a user's hand and an object. The processor receives an intended task from the user and retrieves associated task data based thereon. The processor processes the task data with the intended task to render a visualized item, such as a job card. The processor determines when the visualized item is in front of the hand while the user is performing the task and removes the visualized item responsive thereto.
