Vehicle Display Ownship Cue Dynamic Attitude Update
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current display technologies for vehicles, particularly airborne vehicles, face challenges in presenting information in a clear and efficient manner, especially regarding dynamic vehicle attitudes like roll, pitch, and yaw.
Innovation Solution
A display system that includes a processor to receive vehicle data from sensors indicating roll, pitch, and yaw, and dynamically updates a display with ownship cue symbols to provide visual aids for pilots, enhancing situational awareness.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional display technologies are used to present vehicle attitude information, then the display structure is simple, but the information presentation is cumbersome and not efficient
Solution Approach 1:
The display system dynamically updates the ownship cue symbol based on real-time vehicle attitude data from sensors, transforming static display elements into dynamic visual indicators that automatically adapt to changing flight conditions, thereby improving information presentation efficiency without requiring complex manual intervention
Solution Approach 2:
The processor acts as an intermediary between vehicle sensors and the display, automatically processing attitude data and generating updated visual cues, which simplifies the overall system architecture while enhancing information presentation through automated intermediate processing
2Reliability
If static display symbols are used, then the device complexity is low, but the visual aids do not provide accurate real-time feedback on vehicle attitude
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements continuous feedback by receiving real-time vehicle attitude data from sensors and automatically updating the ownship cue symbol on the display, ensuring the visual representation accurately reflects current vehicle orientation without requiring complex manual calibration
Solution Approach 2:
The display system performs self-updating by automatically processing sensor data and regenerating visual cues without pilot intervention, maintaining accurate real-time feedback while minimizing system complexity through automated self-service operations
3Loss of information
If detailed vehicle data is continuously displayed, then the information completeness is high, but the display becomes cluttered and harder to understand
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the essential attitude information (roll, pitch, yaw) and represents it through a simplified ownship cue symbol overlay, removing unnecessary data elements while preserving critical flight information, thereby maintaining information completeness while improving display clarity and ease of interpretation

AI summary
A display system for a vehicle may include a display configured to present a dynamic horizontal situation display, a processor programmed to receive vehicle data from at least one vehicle sensor, the vehicle data indicating at least one of roll, pitch, and yaw of the vehicle, present, via the display, at least one ownship cue symbol overlaid on the horizontal situation display, and dynamically update the at least one ownship cue symbol based on at least one of the roll, pitch, and yaw of the vehicle based on the vehicle data to provide visual aids regarding the roll, pitch, and yaw to a pilot.
