  • Patent number: 10919644
    Abstract: A multi-mode aircraft navigation light includes a first light source of a first color; a second light source of a second color; and a common optical system, which is arranged over the first light source and the second light source for conditioning light emitted by either one of the first light source and the second light source; and a switching circuit configured to effect power supply to a selected one of the first light source and the second light source depending on a color selection signal.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20210009283
    Abstract: A flight direction indication system for an aerial vehicle having a plurality of rotors includes: for each of the plurality of rotors, at least one rotor blade having a plurality of light sources arranged along a radial extension of the rotor blade; and a control unit, coupled to the plurality of light sources of the rotor blades of the plurality of rotors. The control unit is configured to effect a coordinated control of the plurality of light sources of the rotor blades of the plurality of rotors, with the coordinated control yielding an image or a sequence of images across the plurality of rotors to an observer of the aerial vehicle and to to control the plurality of light sources of the rotor blades of the plurality of rotors on the basis of a momentary flight direction of the aerial vehicle.
