[0002] Aircraft operations involve a wide range of external lighting environments. Typical flight scenarios involve different levels of light and dark. Other representative environments include rapid changes in lighting conditions such as exposure, thunderstorms, and cloud penetration.

Therefore, the light transmission effect of the cockpit windshield is designed so that the light can be adjusted to an appropriate level before entering the cockpit through the windshield, which is conducive to ensuring a scientific and reasonable light environment inside the cockpit and relieving the visual pressure of the crew. At the same time, after the adjustment, the adjustment range of the internal lighting of the cockpit will be greatly reduced, which is conducive to optimizing the human-machine efficiency of the cockpit.

Figure 2 The diagram is a schematic structural diagram of an electrochromic windshield glass in an automatic windshield dimming system for an aircraft cockpit according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3The diagram is a schematic diagram of the arrangement of photosensors in an automatic dimming system for windshields in an aircraft cockpit according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 The present invention is a flowchart of an automatic windshield dimming method for an aircraft cockpit according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0043] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, an automatic dimming system for windshield in an aircraft cockpit includes a photosensitive sensor system, a human eye monitoring device, an onboard computer, a control circuit, and an electrochromic windshield, wherein the onboard computer includes a signal processing module, a data processing module, a dimming solution database, and a circuit control module;
[0044] The photosensitive sensor system is configured to detect the illuminance of the windshield in real time and transmit the illuminance signal to the onboard computer, the signal processing module in the onboard computer is configured to convert the illuminance signal into illuminance data (for example, by analog-to-digital conversion), and then transmit the illuminance data to the data processing module, the data processing module is configured to compare and fit the illuminance data with the dimming solution database to determine a preliminary dimming solution, the circuit control module is configured to output a driving signal to the control circuit according to the preliminary dimming solution, and realize voltage control of the electrochromic windshield by adjusting the variable resistor in the control circuit, so as to implement the preliminary dimming solution on the windshield of the aircraft cockpit;
[0045] Among them, the human eye monitoring equipment is configured to monitor the pilot's eye physiological characteristics data, and the data processing module is also configured to, when the eye physiological characteristics data exceeds a threshold, fine-tune the preliminary dimming plan to determine the final dimming plan, and implement the final dimming plan on the aircraft cockpit windshield.
[0046] According to the above technical scheme, the aircraft cockpit windshield automatic dimming system of the present invention can achieve the following beneficial technical effects: it can realize effective automatic adjustment of the transmittance and color of the aircraft cockpit windshield glass, and can realize dynamic optimization of the dimming scheme.
[0047] Specifically, the present invention designs a negative feedback adjustment method based on a dimming scheme database. The open-loop path generates and implements a preliminary dimming scheme by comparing and fitting the illumination data with the dimming scheme database, thereby realizing effective automatic adjustment of the transmittance and color of the aircraft cockpit windshield. The closed-loop path monitors the eye physiological characteristic data (as a negative feedback source) after the implementation of the scheme, and then compares it with the physiological characteristic database (whether it exceeds the threshold), performs fine-tuning when necessary, and obtains the final dimming scheme, thereby realizing dynamic optimization of the dimming scheme, thereby reducing the adverse effects of natural light passing through the windshield on the changes in the internal light environment of the aircraft cockpit without increasing the operating load of the unit.
[0048] As the object of system regulation, the two main windshields and two side windshields of the aircraft are all made of electrochromic glass, and their structure is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, a typical seven-layer structure is adopted, from left to right, glass or transparent substrate material, transparent conductive layer, electrochromic layer, electrolyte layer, ion storage layer, transparent conductive layer, glass or transparent substrate material. The outermost two layers can be collectively referred to as ordinary layers, the second outer two layers can be collectively referred to as conductive layers, and the three layers in the middle can be collectively referred to as color-changing layers. In principle, by applying different voltages to the conductive layer, the color and light transmittance of the color-changing layer can be changed within a range, and this change is continuous.
[0049] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the cockpit windshield of the aircraft is divided into multiple areas, and the photosensitive sensor system includes multiple corresponding photosensitive sensors, each of which is used to detect the illumination of one area in the multiple areas in real time, and the illumination data includes an illumination distribution matrix. According to the above technical scheme, the automatic dimming system of the cockpit windshield of the aircraft of the present invention can achieve the following beneficial technical effects: the windshield is divided into a set of discrete areas as a whole, and differential dimming is performed according to the light requirements of the unit in different directions, and this differential dimming is achieved by voltage control of the conductive layer.
[0050] Preferably, the photosensitive sensor system is a sensor array composed of a plurality of photosensitive sensors, and the layout scheme is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the photosensitive sensors are evenly arranged on the four corners of the main and side windshields of the aircraft to detect the illumination of the external light on the windshields in different areas in real time, and transmit the illumination signal to the onboard computer through cables.
[0051] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the aircraft cockpit windshield automatic dimming system also includes an automatic dimming control switch for turning on / off the automatic dimming function. According to the above technical solution, the aircraft cockpit windshield automatic dimming system of the present invention can achieve the following beneficial technical effects: it can conveniently switch between automatic and manual modes to achieve variable dimming of the windshield.
[0052] In some embodiments, the eye physiological characteristic data includes at least one of the following: pupil size, blinking frequency, eyeball rotation amplitude, and tear gland secretion volume. According to the above technical solution, the aircraft cockpit windshield automatic dimming system of the present invention can achieve the following beneficial technical effects: by monitoring appropriate eye physiological characteristic data, the dynamic optimization of the dimming solution can be better achieved.
[0053] Preferably, the human eye monitoring equipment consists of a camera and an eye tracker in the cockpit, which is used to monitor the pilot's eye physiological characteristics data, including pupil size, blinking frequency, eye movement amplitude, tear gland secretion volume, etc., and transmit the data to the onboard computer.
[0054] Taking pupil size as an example, when the pupil size data is greater than the upper limit of the pupil size threshold, it indicates that the windshield illumination is too low, and the preliminary dimming plan is fine-tuned to slightly increase the windshield illumination to determine the final dimming plan, and the final dimming plan is implemented on the aircraft cockpit windshield; when the pupil size data is less than the lower limit of the pupil size threshold, it indicates that the windshield illumination is too high, and the preliminary dimming plan is fine-tuned to slightly reduce the windshield illumination to determine the final dimming plan, and the final dimming plan is implemented on the aircraft cockpit windshield.
[0055] The onboard computer is the hub for signal processing and dimming solution formulation, and mainly includes signal processing module, data processing module, dimming solution database, circuit control module, etc.
[0056] The signal processing module is used to decode and convert the signals input from the photosensitive sensor and the human eye monitoring device, generate standard data with a unified format, and use it as input for downstream programs and store it in the onboard computer.
[0057] The dimming scheme database is a calibrated dimming scheme stored in a computer. First, through simulation experiments, the dimming mode that the unit prefers most and the normal threshold of the physiological characteristics of the human eye under different illumination environments are determined. Since the unit has different needs and adaptability to light from different directions, the transmittance of the scheme may show differences in different areas of the windshield, so the scheme needs to be processed. Finally, generate the illumination distribution matrix of each windshield area representing the overall light environment, and the transmittance distribution matrix of each windshield area representing the overall dimming scheme. Finally, establish a mapping between the illumination distribution matrix, the dimming scheme and the physiological data of the human eye. The collection is the dimming scheme database.
[0058] The data processing module compares the actual illumination distribution matrix input by the signal processing module with the set of calibrated illumination distribution matrices in the database, finds the closest existing matrix in the database, and determines the dimming scheme corresponding to the matrix as the preliminary dimming scheme.
[0059] The circuit control module calculates the voltage distribution of the conductive layer of the windshield according to the dimming scheme and transmits the driving signal to the control circuit.
[0060] The control circuit is responsible for applying voltage to the conductive layer of the windshield according to the voltage drive signal, adjusting the corresponding area of the electrochromic glass to the target color and transmittance, and achieving continuous voltage drop distribution through the use of variable resistors, forming a soft and smooth transition between windshield areas of different colors and transmittances.
[0061] After implementing the preliminary dimming plan, the data processing module compares the real-time physiological characteristic data transmitted by the human eye monitoring device with the normal threshold in the database. If the threshold is exceeded, the overall transmittance of the plan is fine-tuned. The final dimming plan is achieved through this closed-loop control and implemented on the aircraft cockpit windshield.
[0062] In summary, through the above-mentioned aircraft cockpit windshield automatic dimming system, the cockpit lighting can be automatically closed-loop controlled according to the internal and external environment, the transmittance and color of the aircraft cockpit windshield can be effectively and automatically adjusted, and the dimming scheme can be dynamically optimized.
[0063] In some embodiments, an intermediate gradient zone is provided between two adjacent areas of the aircraft cockpit windshield, for achieving a uniform transition between two adjacent areas with different light transmittances. According to the above technical solution, the aircraft cockpit windshield automatic dimming system of the present invention can achieve the following beneficial technical effects: a uniform and soft transition can be achieved between two adjacent areas with different light transmittances.
[0064] In some embodiments, the fitting adopts the least square fitting method. According to the above technical solution, the aircraft cockpit windshield automatic dimming system of the present invention can achieve the following beneficial technical effects: through a suitable fitting method, the effective automatic adjustment of the light transmittance and color of the aircraft cockpit windshield can be better achieved.
[0065] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for automatically dimming an aircraft cockpit windshield includes:
[0066] Use a photosensitive sensor system to detect windshield illumination in real time;
[0067] Converting the illumination signal into illumination data;

[0069] Outputting a driving signal to a control circuit according to the preliminary dimming scheme, and realizing voltage control of the electrochromic windshield by adjusting a variable resistor in the control circuit, so as to implement the preliminary dimming scheme on the windshield of the aircraft cockpit;
[0070] Human eye monitoring equipment is used to monitor the pilot's eye physiological characteristics data. When the eye physiological characteristics data exceeds the threshold, the preliminary dimming plan is fine-tuned to determine the final dimming plan, and the final dimming plan is implemented on the aircraft cockpit windshield.
[0071] According to the above technical scheme, the automatic dimming method of the aircraft cockpit windshield of the present invention can achieve the following beneficial technical effects: it can realize effective automatic adjustment of the transmittance and color of the aircraft cockpit windshield glass, and can realize dynamic optimization of the dimming scheme.
