Line 19: Examples include foggles and the IFR hood. Foggles are glasses that have been frosted on the top half of the lenses to simulate [[Fog\|foggy]] conditions. In 2021 The Instrument Conditions Awareness Recognition and Understanding System (ICARUS) Smart View Limiting Device was developed. ICARUS uses Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal Film or [[Smart glass\|Smart Glass]] to electronically change between simulated [[Visual meteorological conditions\|VMC]] and [[Instrument meteorological conditions\|IMC]] to aid pilot training. This capability allows pilots to actually train for [[Continued VFR into IMC\|VFR into IMC]] which often leads to [[spatial disorientation]].
