    Abstract: An anti-collision device of an aircraft including a plurality of sensors, the plurality of sensors including at least two separate sensors, each sensor being configured to respectively deliver its own set of captured data as a function of the proximity of at least one obstruction, the anti-collision device including: at least one data homogenization module configured to transform at least one set of captured data in a corresponding set of unmarked data, each set of unmarked data respectively associated with at least one sensor being made up of a plurality of identical data types from one set of unmarked data to another, and a data processing module configured to generate, from said sets of unmarked data, at least one piece of information representative of the presence or absence of obstruction(s).

    Abstract: A method is provided for readjusting a worn head-up display via an SVS synthetic vision system for viewing information pertaining to the piloting of an aircraft, the information being conformal with the real outside world, comprises steps consisting in: launching the readjusting method by displaying all or some of the conformal piloting information in a readjusting state, frozen on the display with respect to head movements and free with respect to the movement of the aircraft; then carrying out a series of N measurements of relative orientations {circumflex over (K)}l of the head corresponding to targeting actions Vi that superpose the various elements of piloting information displayed in the readjusting state with corresponding landmarks of the real outside world; then conjointly determining the relative orientation M01 between the display D0 and the tracking mobile element D1 and the relative orientation M3t of the inertial device D3 with respect to the Earth on the basis of a system of dual harmonization equations using the measurements {circumflex over (K)}l.

    Abstract: The general field of the invention is that of the methods for graphically representing a first image from an image sensor of the outside landscape superimposed on a second image representing a synthetic image of the same outside landscape, the two images being displayed on a display screen of an onboard display system for aircraft. The first image comprises three rectangular zones of increasing transparency, each zone having a width equal to that of the first image and a determined height, the sum of the three heights being equal to the height of the first image, the first zone situated at the bottom of the image having a first constant level of transparency, the third zone situated at the top of the image having a second constant level of transparency greater than the first level of transparency, the second zone situated between the first zone and the third zone having a level of transparency that is continuously variable between the first level and the second level.
