Abstract: An apparatus and a method allowing a pilot or more generally a crew to enrich a database of user obstacles directly inside the aircraft, on the ground and even during flight. Generally, the apparatus is based on a new software component, which allows new services to be provided for the functional avionic components and for the human machine interfaces HMI of the avionics. This new software component is configured to allow: user obstacles to be created, changed, deleted at the request of components of HMIs of the avionics; user obstacles to be sent to clients of the services of this new software component, which are either other functional components of the avionics or other components of HMIs of the avionics; user obstacles to be recorded to a nonvolatile memory and restored from this nonvolatile memory.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating labeled training data for an artificial intelligence machine is provided. The method comprises at least the steps of: defining parameters for a scenario of an aircraft approaching a runway; using the parameters of the scenario in a flight simulator to generate simulated flight data, the flight simulator being configured so as to simulate the aircraft in the approach phase and an associated autopilot; using the simulated flight data in a sensor simulator to generate simulated sensor data, the sensor simulator being configured so as to simulate a forward-facing sensor on board an aircraft and able to provide sensor data representative of information of interest of a runway, the simulated sensor data that are generated being representative of information of interest of the runway; and using the simulated flight data and the simulated sensor data to generate a ground truth, the ground truth associated with the simulated sensor data forming a pair of simulated labeled training data.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for validating at least one position stored in a database of an aircraft comprising a satellite positioning system, the database containing at least one radionavigation beacon position, a runway threshold position, and a displaced runway threshold position on a runway, on which the aircraft is intended to land, the validation of said at least one position comprising a consistency check between at least:
a signal received by the aircraft from a radionavigation beacon associated with said at least one position, and
the position of the aircraft provided by the satellite positioning system, and
the value of the position stored in the database.-

Abstract: Electronic device for estimating a position of an air traffic element intended to be carried on board an aircraft, and comprising a module for acquiring a measured position of the air traffic element and complementary measured navigation information of the air traffic element; and a module for calculating an estimated position of the air traffic element.
The calculation module is configured to calculate the estimated position of the air traffic element as a function of the measured position and of the complementary measured navigation information acquired for the air traffic element.
The complementary measured navigation information is preferably a measured position of the complementary air traffic element, or a set of at least two measured positions of the complementary air traffic element, or even a measured speed of the air traffic element.-

Abstract: A method for guidance and for assisting in following a trajectory for velocity-vector piloting of an aircraft includes a step of calculating, at all times, lateral and vertical offsets of the current position of the aircraft from a target trajectory, estimated by a flight management system, and then a joining heading and a joining gradient for the aircraft to join the trajectory depending on these offsets; and a following fourth step of displaying, in head-up or head-down form, a consistent guidance symbol centered on the calculated joining heading and the calculated joining gradient for joining the trajectory, on a piloting screen showing a velocity vector. The fourth step may display, in addition to the guidance symbol, one or more items of information anticipating the next trajectory break.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for securing the operation of a synthetic viewing system of an aircraft. This method comprises the steps of determining at least one control object in the field of view of the synthetic vision system and determining at least one control point belonging to each control object and verifying the consistency of the display of the synthetic vision system. The verification step comprises the sub-steps of recovering a first position corresponding to the displayed position of each control point on the corresponding outline on the display of the synthetic vision system, determining a second position of each control point on the display of the synthetic vision system and comparing the first and second positions.
