Cockpit display system

Abstract

This invention proposes a cockpit display system suitable for installation within a cockpit. The cockpit display system includes a display, sensors, and a control unit. The display is mounted on a cockpit window. The sensors are used to acquire sensor data. The control unit is electrically connected to the display and the sensors. The control unit determines the weather conditions based on the sensor data, decides on the display information based on the weather conditions, and provides the display information to the display.

Claims

1. A cockpit display system adapted for installation in a cabin, the cockpit display system comprising: a display disposed on a window of the cabin; at least one sensor for acquiring sensing data, wherein the at least one sensor includes a light intensity sensor, a temperature sensor and a raindrop sensor; and a control unit electrically connected to the display and the at least one sensor for determining a weather condition based on the sensing data acquired by the light intensity sensor, the temperature sensor and the raindrop sensor, determining display information based on the weather condition, and providing the display information to the display.

2. The cockpit display system of claim 1, wherein the display includes a first transparent display and a switching panel, wherein the control unit is electrically connected to the first transparent display and the switching panel, and controls the transparency of the switching panel according to the weather conditions.

3. The cockpit display system as claimed in claim 2, wherein the first transparent display includes a light-emitting side and a rear side opposite to the light-emitting side, the window being disposed on a roof of the cockpit, and the light-emitting side facing the interior of the cockpit.

4. The cockpit display system as claimed in claim 2, wherein the display further includes a second transparent display, the switching panel is disposed between the first transparent display and the second transparent display, and the window is disposed on one side of the cockpit.

5. The cockpit display system of claim 1, wherein the light intensity sensor is used to capture a light intensity, wherein the control unit is used to determine that the light intensity is in one of a plurality of light intensity ranges, and thereby determine the transparency, wherein the transparency is negatively correlated with the light intensity.

6. The cockpit display system as claimed in claim 5, wherein the control unit is configured to determine whether a temperature value captured by the temperature sensor is greater than a temperature threshold; if the temperature value is greater than the temperature threshold, the control unit is configured to determine whether there are raindrops based on data captured by the raindrop sensor; if it is determined that there are raindrops, the control unit enables the switching panel to switch to the transparency.

7. The cockpit display system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the control unit is configured to determine whether a light intensity captured by the light intensity sensor is within a light intensity range; if the light intensity is within the light intensity range, the control unit is configured to determine whether a temperature value captured by the temperature sensor is within a temperature range; if the temperature value is within the temperature range, the control unit is configured to determine whether there are raindrops based on data captured by the raindrop sensor; if it is determined that there are raindrops, the control unit provides a water wave animation to the display.

8. The cockpit display system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rain sensor includes a pressure sensor, wherein the control unit is configured to determine whether a pressure value captured by the pressure sensor is greater than a pressure threshold and exceeds a preset number of times within a certain period of time, and if so, determine that there are raindrops.

9. The cockpit display system as described in claim 8, further comprising: A speaker, wherein the control unit is also used to calculate a raindrop frequency based on the pressure value captured by the pressure sensor, and to provide a rain scene sound signal to the speaker based on the raindrop frequency.

10. The cockpit display system of claim 8, wherein the display information includes a plurality of array patterns, and the control unit is configured to set the density or area of ​​the array patterns to be positively correlated with the pressure value.
