The Mjolnir Mark VI armor features an upgraded HUD system tied directly to
armor sensors and integrated fully with the neural interface. The HUD tracks
ammunition status on all UNSC weapons and now cross-references temperature
readings to track charge-depletion of Covenant weapons, should they be used.

Weapon Indicators
Mjolnir Mark VI armor can monitor the status of two weapons simultaneously.
A left-wielded weapon and ammo display on the left of the HUD, while right-hand
or single-use weapons display on the far-right portion of the HUD. When a single
weapon is wielded, status on your grenade types displays on the left side. Since
SPARTAN-117 can keep a weapon in reserve, it is indicated on the right side.
Motion Tracker
Indicates relative whereabouts of allies and hostile combatants. Located on the
lower-left portion of the HUD, it is tuned to detect aggressive or obvious motion
and cannot show the location of stationary or slow-moving hostiles.
Shield Indicator
A bar above the motion tracker. Solid blue indicates an optimal state.
