Problems solved by technology

The number and variety of instruments and the variety in which their information is presented to pilots add tremendous complexity to piloting an aircraft.
This training requirement imposes a barrier for the general aviation industry, because those who only want to fly for private use (e.g., as a means of transportation or as a hobby), rather than as a profession, often do not have the time, patience and resources required for the extensive training.

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for an avionics interface of an aircraft. Sensors of the aircraft may convey information that can be used in the generation of one or more of the avionics interfaces. An avionics interface may include navigation information, engine instrument information, and communication information. Such information may be provided in visually distinct regions of the interface. An avionics interface may show an angle of attack of the aircraft in a visually incorporated manner with a navigation display. In some instances, the avionics interface may be variable to match pilot preference.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE[0001]The present application is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13 / 956,277, filed Jul. 31, 2013, inventor Stéphan Fymat, entitled “Avionics Interface,” which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 678,556 filed Aug. 1, 2012, the entirety of both of which are incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]A conventional cockpit is cluttered with numerous instruments and devices for pilot use. The number and variety of instruments and the variety in which their information is presented to pilots add tremendous complexity to piloting an aircraft. As the term “aircraft” is used herein, it may refer to a manned or unmanned airplane, glider, helicopter, or other aerial vehicle. For example, pilots must learn how to use specific instruments, and also where each instrument is located in a particular craft. In another example where an aircraft has a computerized cockpit panel that collects and displays information from va...
