Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current simulation flight vehicles require costly and time-consuming manufacturing and maintenance to replicate the instrument panel and function buttons of actual flight vehicles, making it difficult to create an immersive training environment that closely mimics real flight experiences.
Innovation Solution
A display device with a determining unit that adjusts the measuring instrument information and panel layout to match the selected vehicle type, ensuring that the simulation flight vehicle displays the necessary instrument information in the correct positions and numbers, allowing for a more realistic training environment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If physical instrument panels and function buttons are manufactured to replicate actual flight vehicles, then training effectiveness is improved, but manufacturing cost and maintenance cost increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses virtual copying of instrument panels through display devices that replicate the visual appearance and layout of actual flight vehicle instruments. Instead of manufacturing physical replicas, the system creates digital copies that can be displayed on screens, maintaining training effectiveness while eliminating the high costs of physical manufacturing and maintenance.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical physical instrument panels with electronic display systems. The display device substitutes physical instruments with virtual representations shown on screens, eliminating the need for manufacturing and maintaining physical mechanical components while preserving the training function.
2Reliability
If physical instrument panels are manufactured to match actual flight vehicles, then training realism is improved, but time consumption for manufacturing increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates instant virtual copies of instrument panels through software and display technology. Instead of time-consuming physical manufacturing processes, the virtual instrument panels can be generated and modified digitally, dramatically reducing the time required to create realistic training environments.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces mechanical manufacturing processes with electronic software implementation. The instrument panels are created through programming and display rendering rather than physical fabrication, eliminating the time-consuming nature of manufacturing physical components.
3Reliability
If physical instrument panels are manufactured to replicate actual flight vehicles, then training immersion is improved, but maintenance cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses virtual copies of instrument panels that can be updated and maintained through software modifications rather than physical repairs. When instrument changes are needed, the virtual representations can be instantly updated without the cost and complexity of manufacturing new physical components.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces physical mechanical instruments with electronic display systems. This substitution eliminates the need for physical maintenance, calibration, and repair of mechanical components, as the virtual instruments can be updated through software without physical intervention.

AI summary
A display device of a simulation flight vehicle and an operating method thereof. That is, when a vehicle type for training is selected for performing a flight training using a simulation flight vehicle, the measuring instrument information of the selected vehicle type is changed to be the same as that of an actual flight vehicle for display, such that convenience and effectiveness of the flight training can be greatly enhanced.
