A method and apparatus for self-relative body tracking in virtual reality systems using magnetic tracking is disclosed, which allows more accurate tracking of a user's body relative to the user's field of vision. A head-mounted magnetic tracking (HMMT) system is used, in which other parts of a user's body are tracked relative to the HMD on the user's head, rather than relative to a base station. This results in less distortion of the magnetic field used for tracking and thus allows for more accurate determination of the position and orientation of a user's body parts relative to the user's field of vision, so that a more accurate avatar may be presented on the HMD to the user. This allows the avatar of the user's body part to be shown in a location that corresponds closely to its physical position. In an alternative embodiment, multiple portions of the user's body may be tracked. 1.

A combiner positioning system for a head-up display includes a carrier and a locking element. The carrier supports a combiner for the head-up display, and the combiner is movable between a stowed position and a display position. The locking element has an engaged position and a disengaged position. The locking element engages a portion of the carrier in the display position and rigidly holds the carrier in the display position. 1. A combiner positioning system for a head-up display , the system comprising:a carrier supporting a combiner for the head-up display, wherein the combiner is movable between a stowed position and a display position;an angle adjustment support connected to the carrier that extends from a camwheel, wherein rotation of the camwheel causes the angle adjustment support to rotate the carrier and the combiner about an axis; anda locking element having an engaged position and a disengaged position, wherein the locking element engages a portion of the carrier and rigidly holds the carrier in the display position,wherein, when the locking element is in the disengaged position, the locking element does not engage the portion of the carrier and does not restrain the carrier from moving laterally, and wherein lateral movement of the carrier is required for the combiner to move between the stowed position and the display position.2. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:an axle extending from the carrier,wherein the locking element urges the axle into a recess and rigidly holds the axle in the recess when the combiner is in the display position, wherein rigidly holding the axle in the recess increases a resonance frequency of the positioning system.3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the locking element is configured to exert a spring force for holding the axle in the display position.4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the locking element is shaped as a lever comprising a lever axle about which the locking element rotates between the engaged position ...
