Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating labeled training data for an artificial intelligence machine is provided. The method comprises at least the steps of: defining parameters for a scenario of an aircraft approaching a runway; using the parameters of the scenario in a flight simulator to generate simulated flight data, the flight simulator being configured so as to simulate the aircraft in the approach phase and an associated autopilot; using the simulated flight data in a sensor simulator to generate simulated sensor data, the sensor simulator being configured so as to simulate a forward-facing sensor on board an aircraft and able to provide sensor data representative of information of interest of a runway, the simulated sensor data that are generated being representative of information of interest of the runway; and using the simulated flight data and the simulated sensor data to generate a ground truth, the ground truth associated with the simulated sensor data forming a pair of simulated labeled training data.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method allowing a pilot or more generally a crew to enrich a database of user obstacles directly inside the aircraft, on the ground and even during flight. Generally, the apparatus is based on a new software component, which allows new services to be provided for the functional avionic components and for the human machine interfaces HMI of the avionics. This new software component is configured to allow: user obstacles to be created, changed, deleted at the request of components of HMIs of the avionics; user obstacles to be sent to clients of the services of this new software component, which are either other functional components of the avionics or other components of HMIs of the avionics; user obstacles to be recorded to a nonvolatile memory and restored from this nonvolatile memory.

Abstract: A method is provided for managing and displaying symbols that are geo-referenced in a viewing device. The method is implemented in a synthetic viewing system comprising a navigation system, a cartographic database comprising a geo-referenced object, electronic calculation means to calculate the symbol which is itself geo-referenced representative of the geo-referenced object and a viewing device. The electronic calculation means are arranged so as to calculate the total surface area of the geo-referenced symbol to be displayed on the viewing device and a photometric and/or colorimetric coefficient representative of the conformal symbol, the photometric and/or colorimetric coefficient being a decreasing function of the total surface area. The photometric and/or colorimetric coefficient is a coefficient of opacity or of luminance or of hue or of saturation.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of guiding the pilot of an aircraft for the alignment maneuver, including: determining at a first instant an occurrence close to the alignment maneuver and triggering the display of a first symbol on the screen; updating the position of the first symbol on the horizon according to the updated value of the aircraft heading; when the alignment maneuver is to begin, moving a second symbol on the screen from the position of the first symbol, the direction of the displacement with respect to the horizon being determined depending on the direction of the crosswind with respect to the runway and the value of the displacement being determined depending on the difference between the current dynamic sideslip of the aircraft and a current dynamic sideslip setpoint value calculated for the aircraft.

Abstract: Method and device for assisting with landing an aircraft under poor visibility conditions are provided. The method allows sensor data to be received during a phase of approach toward a runway when the runway and/or an approach lighting system are not visible to the pilot from the cockpit; then, in the received sensor data, data of interest characteristic of the runway and/or the approach lighting system to be determined; then, on the basis of the data of interest, the coordinates of a target area to be computed; and, on a head-up display, a guiding symbol representative of the target area to be displayed, the guiding symbol being displayed before the aircraft reaches the decision height, in order to provide the pilot with a visual cue in which to search for the runway and/or approach lighting system.

Abstract: An on-board viewing system for aircraft of an image arising from an image sensor overlaid on a synthetic image of the outside landscape is provided. The method comprises the following steps: analysis, at a temporal frequency, of the sensed images so as to determine, in each image, a boundary between the information useful for piloting and the non-useful information, the useful information consisting of noteworthy elements, the temporal frequency being an order of magnitude lower than the video refresh frequency; determination of a transition zone in the vicinity of each boundary; display on the viewing screen, at the video refresh frequency, of the sensed images, each sensed image being displayed overlaid on a synthetic image of the landscape, the sensed image being opaque under the transition zone, totally transparent above the transition zone and of continuously variable transparency in the transition zone.

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.
