Abstract:
The embodiments described herein can provide improved reliability and accuracy of communication to and from and aircraft, such as aircraft-to-aircraft communication and aircraft-to-air traffic control (ATC) communication. In particular, the systems and methods can improve the reliability and accuracy of aircraft communication by performing voice-to-text conversions on voice communications and performing a validation check on the resulting voice-to-text converted message. This validation check determines a measure of validation for the voice-to-text converted message. In one embodiment, the voice-to-text converted message can be displayed to a user with a visual indicator of the measure of validation. Thus, the user can be made aware of the measure of validation when viewing the voice-to-text converted message. Such a system and method can be used to provide the user with increased information regarding the reliability and accuracy of the voice-to-text converted message, and thus can provide improved communication to and from the aircraft.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for displaying a datalink message log on a Forward Field-of-View display are provided. In one embodiment, an avionics system for displaying a Forward Field-of-View log of datalink messages on-board an aircraft comprises: a processor executing a Datalink Message Log Function that manages a datalink message log, the Message Log Function in communication with at least one on-board memory storage device storing Datalink Message Data; and a human machine interface (HMI) device in communication with the Message Log Function, the HMI device comprising a Forward Field-of-View Display presenting a first screen that displays a log of datalink messages from the Message Data; wherein at least one entry of the log of datalink messages is presented in the first screen in a collapsed form and at least one entry for an active datalink message is presented in the first screen in an expanded form.
