摘要:
A method and system is described for enhancing ground situational awareness to an aircrew via a display (116) within an aircraft (202, 310, 404) operating at an airport, including displaying (602, 704) at least one taxiway (A, B, C, D, E, G, K, 302, 408) for the airport, displaying (602, 704) at least one runway (210, 312, 406) for the airport, displaying (604, 706) a landmark related to the at least one taxiway (A, B, C, D, E, G, K, 302, 408), determining (606, 708) the position of the aircraft (202, 310, 404), displaying (608, 710) the aircraft (202, 310, 404), and blossoming (610, 712) the landmark (208, 304) as the aircraft (202, 310, 404) approaches the landmark (208, 304, 408).
摘要:
An aircraft display system is provided that is configured to render a perspective display having a field of view. The aircraft display system includes a monitor and a processor coupled to the monitor. The processor is configured to generate a map display on the monitor. The map display indicates the value of at least one parameter of the field of view of the perspective display.

System and method increase the visibility of critical flight information on electronic displays. An aircraft display system includes a processing unit, a flight management system, a navigation system, a database for storing target data and terrain data, a graphics display generator, and a visual display. The flight management system and/or the navigation system provide real-time aircraft operational and flight control information. The processing unit directs the graphics display generator to generate graphic control signals for the visual display, which increase the transparency of a segment of a zero pitch reference line in the vicinity of a flight path marker on the display.

A flight deck display system for an aircraft includes a processor architecture configured to receive aircraft instrument data, waypoint restriction information, and position data for the aircraft and, based upon the received data, generate image rendering display commands. The system also includes a display element configured to receive the image rendering display commands and, in response thereto, to render a display that includes a perspective view of terrain and at least one waypoint marker corresponding to an approaching waypoint. The waypoint marker includes visually distinguishable characteristics that convey waypoint restriction information (e.g., altitude or airspeed constraint information that governs the waypoint).
摘要:
A display system for use on a vehicle is presented. The display system comprises a cursor control device, at least one electronic display for displaying a first image comprising a three-dimensional conformal view of a terrain and a first movable cursor, and a processor that is coupled to the cursor control device and the at least one electronic display. The processor is configured to move the first movable cursor on the first image in response to input from the cursor control device and to determine a latitude and longitude that correspond to the position of the first movable cursor.
摘要:
A system for detecting a landing area or runway for an aircraft includes a detection subsystem, a processor architecture, flight deck instrumentation, and a runway feature template database. The system is operated to perform an automated method for visually confirming the presence of a runway on approach. The method obtains sensor data indicative of an approach area of the aircraft, and extracts visually distinguishable features of the approach area from the sensor data. The method also accesses the runway feature template corresponding to the intended approach runway for the aircraft, fits the visually distinguishable features to the runway feature template, and provides flight crew feedback in response to the fitting step.
摘要:
A display system is provided for a vehicle. The system includes a processor configured to receive data representative of landing information and navigation and control information and to supply display commands associated with the landing information and navigation and control information; and a display device coupled the processor for receiving the display commands and operable to render a three-dimensional view, including first symbology representing the landing information and second symbology representing the navigation and control information. The second symbology is superimposed on the first symbology.
摘要:
A flight deck display system for an aircraft includes a processor architecture configured to receive aircraft instrument data (e.g., altimeter or airspeed) and position data for the aircraft and, based upon the instrument data and the position data, generate image rendering display commands. The system also includes a display element configured to receive the image rendering display commands and, in response thereto, to render a graphical instrument tape. The instrument tape includes a graphical representation of a scrolling altitude or airspeed range that dynamically scrolls in response to changes in the altitude/airspeed data, along with a graphical representation of a position-dependent altitude/airspeed clearance element that conveys an altitude/airspeed restriction for an approaching geographic position of the aircraft. The content of the position-dependent clearance element is influenced by the position data.
摘要:
A system and method for fusing sensor data and synthetic data to form an integrated image are described. An image registration process is used to fuse the images. The image registration process is performed on gradients of a landmark image. The gradients are extracted from both sensor and synthetic datasets for the landmark image. Using the image gradient, a center of mass for each of the gradient's curves is calculated. By solving a minimization problem to reduce error, a desired transformation operator can be obtained to match the sensor image to the synthetic image.
摘要:
A method for displaying attitude, heading, and navigation data on a single display is described. The method comprises configuring the display with terrain data, overlaying the terrain display with a compass rose display, and superimposing an attitude direction indicator with the compass rose display, the attitude direction indicator referenced to a center of the compass rose.
