Description

[0001] A DISPLAY SYSTEM

[0002] This invention relates to a display system that allows the visualisation of vehicle parameters on the display.

[0003] In order for the people driving vehicles such as helicopters, airplanes, unmanned aerial vehicles, and automobiles to receive information, the parameters related to the vehicle and / or the travel are displayed through various indicators on the screen. The parameters are collected through sensors on and / or outside the vehicle and visualised on a screen with circular, linear indicators for the user, who can be the pilot, to view. The parameter information on the indicators and the values that the parameters can take are determined in advance and the indicator designs are made accordingly.

[0004] In the European patent application document numbered EP3754627A1 in the state of the art, methods and systems for displaying the energy status of a vehicle to a vehicle crew are mentioned. In said patent document, the desired energy height bar indicator and the actual energy height bar indicator are displayed side by side, allowing the user to compare both energy values. In addition, the energy ratio indicator displays whether the ratio of the actual energy height to the desired energy height is high, medium or low, depending on the thickness of the indicator.

[0005] In the United States patent document numbered US9529010B2 in the state of the art, a cockpit display is described that shows low acceleration conditions during aircraft take-off and / or low deceleration conditions during aircraft landing.

[0006] A display system developed with the present invention allows the pilot to read multiple data on a single display.

[0007] Another aim of the invention is to convey the increase / decrease trends and change rates of the parameters related to the vehicle to the pilot via an easily readable display. Another aim of the invention is to provide a display system that helps the pilot perceive critical information about the flight in a short time among complex indicator structures.

[0008] The display system defined in the first claim and the claims dependent on this claim, which is realised to achieve the aim of the invention, comprises at least one vehicle. There is at least one sensor on the vehicle that measures the data which may be the speed and fuel of the vehicle. There is a processor that receives the data from the sensor and calculates the increase or decrease trends of the numerical values, which are the values in a predetermined time period. The processor determines an acceleration value, which is the change of the numerical values over time, and compares it with a threshold value determined by the user and determines the difference between them. The processor divides the lower and upper limits that the numerical value can take into intervals determined by the user.

[0009] The display system, which is the subject of the invention, comprises a processor that is divided into intervals determined by the user and visualises the intervals divided into colours in or around a frame. In or around the frame, there is an up or down symbol aligned with the interval that the numerical value corresponds to and representing the increase / decrease trend of the numerical value. By the change in the shape or size of the direction symbol, the acceleration value is visualised. The acceleration value is visualised on at least one indicator bar. The processor visualises the numerical value, the increase / decrease trend of the numerical value and the acceleration value by means of a frame and an indicator. The frame and indicator bar are transmitted to the user on the screen.

[0010] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that visualises the direction symbol of the indicator bar in the form of a "V" as the acceleration value of the numerical data increases. The angle of the "V" shape decreases or increases depending on the amount of increase in the acceleration value. The direction symbol can preferably be in the form of an arrow. If the acceleration value increases rapidly, the arrow form is visualised in a way that its sharpness will be high.

[0011] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that visualises the direction symbol of the indicator bar in the form of a "U" as the acceleration value of the numerical data decreases. Depending on the amount of decrease in the acceleration value, the angle of the "U" shape decreases or increases. The direction symbol can preferably be in the form of an arrow. If the acceleration value decreases rapidly, the arrow form is visualised in a way that its sharpness will be high.

[0012] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that visualises the direction symbol of the indicator bar in a downward direction if the numerical value tends to decrease. If the numerical value tends to increase, the processor visualises the direction symbol of the indicator bar in an upward direction.

[0013] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that visualises the direction symbol of the display bar as a straight line if the numerical value remains constant.

[0014] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that divides the frame to include value ranges and visualises each range with colours or symbols previously determined by the user. The colours can be green, yellow, and red. The processor transmits the image it creates to the user via the screen.

[0015] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that determines the range corresponding to the numerical value and visualises the numerical value in the colour or symbol of the range it determines. The processor transmits the image it creates to the user via the screen.

[0016] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that divides the frame into sections to include each range and visualises the ranges in predetermined colours or symbols. The processor transmits the image it creates to the user via the screen. The values that the ranges can take are predetermined by the user.

[0017] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that determines the range corresponding to the numerical value and virtually processes the numerical value itself in the colour or symbol of the relevant range, and a screen that visualises the data created by the processor and reflects it to the user. In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that determines the range corresponding to the numerical value and virtually processes the indicator bar in the colour or symbol of the specified range, and a screen that visualises the data created by the processor and reflects it to the user.

[0018] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that instantly updates the sharpness of the arrow form of the indicator bar's direction symbol when the numerical value changes at a rate predetermined by the user for a period of time predetermined by the user. The processor instantly updates the colour or symbol of the indicator bar when the numerical value changes at a rate predetermined by the user for a period of time predetermined by the user. The processor instantly updates the colour or symbol of the numerical value visual when the numerical value changes at a rate predetermined by the user for a predetermined period of time.

[0019] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that visualises a cursor visual with a predetermined colour or symbol when the numerical value takes a value predetermined by the user within the range it falls into and stays at this value for a period of time predetermined by the user. The processor transmits a parameter represented by the cursor visual to the user as a notification on the screen. The cursor visual may have a hollow triangle form. If the cursor visual stays at a value for a predetermined period of time, the hollow triangle form of the cursor visual is visualised as filled.

[0020] In one embodiment of the invention, the display system comprises a processor that visualises the name of the parameter represented by the numerical value on the screen in text form. The parameter may have names such as speed, altitude, fuel, torque, etc. related to the vehicle.
