Patent number: 9858596Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods and computer program products for providing targeted location-based communications. An exemplary apparatus is configured to receive an encoded signal, decode the encoded signal such that embedded data is retrieved, send the embedded data a remote server; and receive a message based at least partially on sending the embedded data. Another exemplary apparatus is configured to provide the encoded signal by receiving data input, receiving a host signal, embedding the data input within the host signal such that an encoded signal is generated, and transmitting the encoded signal. A third exemplary apparatus is configured to provide the targeted communications by storing one or more messages associated with an entity, receiving data, selecting at least one of the one or more messages based at least partially on the data received, and sending the at least one of the one or more messages selected.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2015Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: Muzak LLCInventors: Gordon Howard Courtney, III, Russell John Hammond, James Hodges McAliley

Publication number: 20170287342Abstract: A method for displaying an image to a pilot (20) of an aircraft (2). The method comprises: displaying, by a helmet mounted display (HMD) (24), to the pilot (20), an image comprising initial image components including a first image component (34); determining that the helmet mounted display (24) is offset from a desired position for the helmet mounted display (24); determining, by one or more processors (26), a specification for a further image component (50); and displaying, by the helmet mounted display (24), to the pilot (20), an image comprising at least the first image component (34) and the further image component (50). The further image component (50) has a fixed position with respect to the first image component (34) and indicates one or more alternative positions for the first image component (34).Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2015Publication date: October 5, 2017Applicant: BAE Systems PLCInventor: Steven James HODGE

Publication number: 20170277199Abstract: A method for displaying an image to a pilot (20) of an aircraft (2). The method comprises, using a first value of the velocity of the aircraft (2) relative to a runway (4), displaying, on a HMD (24), an indication of a first position for an image component (e.g. a FPM) (36), the first position being the position, from the pilot's point of view, that the image component (36) would occupy if the aircraft (2) was established on a predefined glideslope (16); using a second value different to the first value, displaying, on the HMD (24), an indication of a second position for the image component (36), the second position being the position, from the pilot's point of view, that the image component (36) would occupy if the aircraft (2) was established on a different glideslope.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2015Publication date: September 28, 2017Inventor: Steven James HODGE
