Abstract: An apparatus includes at least one processor and at least one non-transitory memory having computer-coded instructions stored thereon that, in execution with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to receive flight sensor data associated with an aerial vehicle operating in an environment, generate a virtual environment based at least in part on the flight sensor data, generate, within the virtual environment, a virtual corridor defining a volume within which the aerial vehicle is safe to operate, and cause rendering of a user interface comprising at least one visualization interface depicting at least the virtual corridor together with a transition point at which a vertical takeoff or a vertical landing is to commence is indicated.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure assist pilots of aerial vehicles in performing particular operations utilizing improved user interface(s). In some contexts, pilots performing vertical takeoffs or vertical landings cannot visually inspect the environment around the vehicle. Embodiments of the present disclosure utilize virtual elements, including a virtual corridor and virtual vehicle corresponding to an aerial vehicle, to enable improved visualization and control of an aerial vehicle within a particular environment. Utilizing representation(s) of the virtual elements, including a virtual corridor and/or virtual vehicle, embodiments of the present disclosure provide improved user interfaces that assist a pilot in safely controlling an aerial vehicle (even without visual inspection of a real-world environment) during vertical takeoff and/or vertical landing.
