Abstract: A computing system for controlling a plurality of exterior lights on a flying vehicle is disclosed. The computing system is configured to: determine a flying vehicle status for the flying vehicle; determine an environment status for the flying vehicle; determine a current flight phase for the flying vehicle; determine, for each of a plurality of the exterior lights that is in an automatic lighting control mode, a desired lighting state for the exterior light by applying a predefined lighting pattern that identifies, based on the flying vehicle status, environmental status, and the current flight phase, a first subset of the exterior lights to cause to enter a first lighting state and a second subset of the exterior lights to cause to enter a second lighting state; and cause the first subset of exterior lights to be in the first lighting state and the second subset of exterior lights to be in the second lighting state.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for monitoring usage associated with a control component of a vehicle. Environmental states are determined for different time segments based on measurement data and utilized to determine an effective usage associated with each of the different time segments. Cumulative usage associated with the control component is determined based on the effective usages associated with the different time segments, and one or more actions are initiated based on the cumulative usage. For example, operation of the control component may be dynamically adjusted based on the cumulative usage, or maintenance actions may be recommended, scheduled, or otherwise initiated.

Abstract: A system to assess the current, or future workload of a pilot and automatically providing annunciation when needed to the pilot, as well as to resources that support the pilot. The system may automatically, and without pilot involvement, assess the workload for the pilot based on incoming events and abnormal scenarios. The predicted incoming events may be related to operation data, such as navigation information, weather, traffic avoidance, and so on. The system may also detect abnormal scenarios, such as engine warnings, fuel or other aircraft issues. The system may determine whether the predicted incoming events or the abnormal scenario satisfies one or more pre-defined criteria. Based on the event satisfying one or more criteria, the system may output an annunciation to either the pilot, resources that support the pilot, such as an additional pilot and air traffic control (ATC).

Abstract: A system may monitor energy consumption of an aircraft. The system may include a memory and processing circuitry in communication with the memory. The processing circuitry may be configured to receive aircraft status data that indicates whether one or more fault conditions are present on the aircraft; receive flight plan data corresponding to a flight plan of the aircraft; and receive battery data indicative of a status of one or more batteries, wherein the battery data includes an amount of energy stored by the one or more batteries and a power output capability of the one or more batteries. Additionally, the processing circuitry may determine, based on the aircraft status data, the flight plan data, and the battery data, whether the aircraft is capable of completing the flight plan; and output, based on determining that the aircraft is not capable of completing the flight plan, a warning message.
