Abstract: A head up display arrangement for a motor vehicle includes a picture generation unit having a plurality of light emitters conjunctively defining a first plane and each emitting light. A liquid crystal display defines a second plane that is nonparallel to the first plane. A plurality of lenses are disposed between the first plane and the second plane. Each lens passes light from a respective one of the light emitters to a respective zone of the liquid crystal display. Each lens has an optical characteristic that is dependent upon a distance between the respective one of the light emitters and the respective zone of the liquid crystal display. At least one mirror reflects light emitted by the liquid crystal display such that the reflected light is again reflected by a windshield of the motor vehicle to be visible by a human driver of the motor vehicle as a virtual image.

Abstract: A method of making carbon nanotubes includes reacting hydrogen and carbon monoxide in a reaction chamber and in the presence of stainless steel. Typically, the carbon nanotubes are formed on the stainless steel. These carbon nanotubes can be removed from the stainless steel and can be used in a variety of applications.
