    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method (300) for presenting images from the surrounding of an airborne vehicle in a flight vision system. The method comprises the step of providing (310) a plurality of images of the surrounding of the airborne vehicle. The plurality of images originates from at least two different sources. The method further comprises assessing (320) a quality measure in each of the images out of the plurality of images. The quality measure relates at least to the visibility of objects in the plurality of images. The method even further comprises automatically deciding (330) from which of the at least two different sources at least one image out of the plurality of images should be displayed. The decision is based at least on the assessed quality measure. The method yet even further comprises displaying (340) the at least one automatically decided image in the flight vision system. The present disclosure also relates to a flight vision system, an airborne vehicle, a computer program product and a computer-readable storage medium.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for determining an action for collision avoidance in a craft. The method (100) comprises obtaining (110) object data comprising three-dimensional object data points (420); obtaining (120) state data of the craft (260); determining (140) at least one set of manoeuvre paths (410a,b,c) for the craft (260) based on the obtained craft state data; determining (150) a set of distance thresholds (421) for the three-dimensional object data points (420) based on the object data; comparing (160) each set of manoeuvre pathsv (410a,b,c) with the object data and the set of distance thresholds (421), wherein the set of manoeuvre paths (410a,b,c) is identified as a colliding set of manoeuvre paths (410a,b,c) when each path of the set of manoeuvre paths (410a,b,c) is at least partially within the corresponding distance threshold (421) of at least one three-dimensional object data point (420); and determining (170) an action upon identification of at least one colliding set of manoeuvre paths (410a,b,c).
