Abstract:
A method of displaying data for the management of the flight of an aircraft includes the steps consisting in receiving the selection of an object on a display screen present in the cockpit of the aircraft; determining one or more flight commands associated with the selected object; selecting at least one flight command from among the one or more determined flight commands; generating a display panel comprising a plurality of display tiles, one of the tiles displaying data associated with the selected object and another tile displaying the flight command selected. Developments describe the updating of the panel as a function of a revision of the flight plan, the displaying of attributes of a flight command, conditional display modifications, modalities of unfurling or of folding of the display tiles, the taking into account of the visual density of display, the use of display rules, in particular as a function of flight context.

The general field of the invention is that of devices for display and control of setpoints for automatic piloting for aircraft, configured to display the setpoints of speed, heading, climb slope and altitude. The various setpoints are displayed in the form of a graphical representation comprising: wheels graduated in speed and in altitude indicating the aircraft setpoint values; a circular heading rose, graduated and centred on a first symbol representing the aircraft, the heading setpoint being indicated by a second symbol representing the heading to be followed by the aircraft and disposed around the perimeter of the heading rose; and a vertical sectional view comprising a graduated semicircle centred on a third symbol representing the aircraft, the slope setpoint being indicated by a fourth symbol representing the slope to be followed by the aircraft and disposed around the perimeter of the semicircle.

Abstract:
An avionics system comprises an analysis system for analysing the data input, arranged so as to ensure the following functionalities: recognition of the characteristics of each datum and creation of a raw alphanumeric datum; decomposition of the raw alphanumeric datum into numerical values and into referenced parameters or into unreferenced information or into unutilizable information; verification of the consistency of the information emanating from the raw alphanumeric datum; transformation of the raw alphanumeric datum into utilizable alphanumeric datum; the alphanumeric data being displayed in a data “cloud” on the viewing device, the data being able to be selected, modified or moved by the interaction means.
Abstract:
The general field of the invention is that of methods for displaying the geographical situation of an aircraft in flight on a visual display device. The geographical situation comprises a cartographic representation of the terrain flown over by the aircraft. Said geographical situation comprises two main display modes, known as “Arc” and “Rose”. The switch from the first mode to the second mode is made at least by means of a first step of selecting a model representing the position of the aircraft at the current time and arranged in the first mode and a second step of moving said model towards the position occupied in the second mode. The movement of the model causes the movement of the cartographic representation of the terrain being flown over, the steps of selection and movement being accomplished using a human-machine interface, which can be a graphic cursor control device or a touch-sensitive interface.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an obstacle detection method implemented by an obstacle detection system on-board an aircraft, the aircraft including at least one on-board camera having an associated field of view configured to acquire full-field digital images. The method comprises the steps of: (a)—reception (50) of at least one full-field digital image captured by said at least one on-board camera, b)—determination (54) of a spatial position of a zone of interest of predetermined size in said full-field digital image, and extraction (56) of said zone of interest from said full-field digital image, c)—implementation of an obstacle detection module (58) on said extracted zone of interest, implementing a neural network previously trained to detect and classify obstacles in images having said predetermined size, each obstacle detected being located in said zone of interest.
