摘要: A method for separating avionics charts into a plurality of display panels (402) is disclosed. The method may include receiving chart data for a virtual avionics chart. The method may include determining whether the received chart data exceeds a predetermined threshold. The method may include generating a plurality of display panels if the received chart data exceeds the predetermined threshold. The method may include determining one or more buffer lengths for the generated plurality of display panels. The method may include generating a plurality of output files based on the generated plurality of display panels and the determined one or more buffer lengths.

摘要: A flight display (100) is described. The flight display includes a display screen (102), a physical network interface (106), and multiple processors (110). The flight display interfaces with the flight deck by way of the physical network interface. The display screen displays images representative of avionics data in response to signals generated by one or more of the processors. The processors also generate command signals causing an actuator (306) of the aircraft to control a flight control surface or a throttle. In this regard, the one or more of the processors perform various automatic flight control system (AFCS) functions. A system (200) is further described including multiple of the flight displays. By hosting the AFCS functions across processors of the multiple flight displays, a level of command integrity may be reached. Furthermore, backups flight displays are available to be reconfigured to perform the AFCS functions.

摘要: A system and related methods for storing data from avionics sensors (106) and displaying the data on flight display (102). The data is received from the avionics sensor (106). The data is recorded in a memory (112) according to a storage period, the storage period based on at least in part on a sampling rate of the signal. Furthermore, the memory (112) may be limited to a fixed amount of data, with the oldest data being replaced with newer data. The data is further displayed on a flight display (102) adjacent to a linear scale, with an orientation and position such that the data corresponds to values on the linear scale. By the data displayed on the flight display (102), an aircraft operator may visually determine trends regarding in-flight data in minimal time, thereby reducing cognitive workload.

摘要: A method of transmitting a message from a sender (101) to a receiver (102) is provided, wherein the communication between the sender (101) and receiver (102) is performed using a hybrid automatic-repeat-request (HARQ) protocol. Artificial noise is added digitally to a first data packet in order to trigger transmission of a second data packet. Corresponding artificial noise is added digitally to the second data packet such that the receiver device (102) can process the data packets together to remove the introduced artificial noise and extract the desired message. Also disclosed are methods where artificial noise is added to a predetermined set of plural data packets in a similar fashion.

摘要: An operator safety system, OSS (200), monitors the physiological well-being of an aircraft pilot or vehicle operator, and has engaged and disengaged operational states (the engaged state associated with active monitoring). The OSS includes a smart engage/disengage system incorporating presence sensors (106,210a,210b) (e.g., visual, seat-based) installed in the cockpit or control area (100) of the vehicle. When the presence sensors determine that the pilot/operator is no longer present in their seat but the OSS is still engaged, the OSS prompts the operator to disengage the OSS (e.g., via single-touch display interface or remotely to a mobile device). When the presence sensors determine that the operator is present or seated, but the OSS is disengaged, the OSS prompts the operator to re-engage the OSS.

摘要: A pilot may be more stressed during take-off or landing, which is not abnormal. Physiological data of the pilot may be received. Placing the physiological data in context of the current situation may be advantageous in detecting anomalous behaviors of the pilot. A system (100) and method (200) are described. The system and method receive (210) a stream of images from a camera and detect whether the pilot is exhibiting anomalous behavior. The anomalous behavior is further put into context based on the flight state and various avionics information.

摘要: A system is described. The system may detect whether a user within a flight deck is authorized to control the aircraft. The user may receive differing levels of authority to control the aircraft depending on whether the user is authorized or unauthorized. The system may also control the aircraft depending on the various phases of the aircraft, including in flight and on the ground. The system may also be used to unlock the controls for the aircraft. The system may unlock the control using biometric information or nonbiometric information. The system includes a camera (128) which is added to a flight deck. The camera (128) may capture images of users within the flight deck. Faces within the images may be detected and compared against authorized users for locking or unlocking the aircraft controls.

摘要: A system and method for automatically assessing pilot readiness via a plurality of biometric sensors (108, 110) includes continuously receiving biometric data including vision-based data; the biometric vision-based data is compared to a task specific set of movements and facial expressions as defined by known anchor points. A deviation is calculated based on the vision-based data and task specific set of movements and expressions, and the deviation is compared to an acceptable threshold for pilot readiness. Other biometric data may be included to refine the readiness assessment.

摘要: An onboard aircraft landing system includes one or more event-based cameras (104) disposed at known locations to capture the runway and visible surrounding features such as lights and runway markings. The event-based cameras (104) produce a continuous stream of event data that may be quickly processed to identify both light and dark features contemporaneously, and calculate an aircraft pose relative to the runway based on the identified features and the known locations of the event-based cameras. Composite features are identified via the relative location of individual features corresponding to pixel events.

摘要: A system for flight and task management timeline display is disclosed. In embodiments, the timeline display (102) is positioned on an edge (104) of a primary flight display (PFD) or other avionics display (100), divided lengthwise into time (e.g., absolute time) and space (e.g., relative time and distance) scales. The timeline display (102) expands situational awareness into the temporal dimension by positioning waypoints (214) in the flight path based on the relative time to passage or flyover. The time scale (110) corresponds to an adjustable time range and automatically scrolls lengthwise according to the current time, but can be manually zoomed or scrolled in past and future directions as well. Based on updates from the flight management system (FMS), the space scale (112) displays relative time-distanced events, notifications for reminders and tasks, and waypoints (214) positioned according to the likely times they will be encountered (or, in the case of reminders and tasks, must be fulfilled).
