Abstract: A touchscreen fuel panel. In embodiments, the fuel panel includes a touchscreen display and a controller coupled to the touchscreen display. The controller is configured to generate a graphical user interface at the touchscreen display and receive user inputs via the touchscreen display. In embodiments, the graphical user interface includes a pump menu, valve control icons, pump status indications, fuel quantity indications, and fuel calculations. The controller may be configured to present requested information and/or generate a control signal for at least one fuel system component in response to receiving a user input representing a user interaction with the graphical user interface.

Abstract: A touchscreen fuel panel with checklist automation is disclosed. In embodiments, the fuel panel includes a touchscreen display and a controller coupled to the touchscreen display. The controller is configured to generate a graphical user interface at the touchscreen display and receive user inputs via the touchscreen display. The controller is further configured to execute an automated set of fuel management checklist procedures in response to a user input. In some embodiments, the controller can be alternatively or additionally configured to execute other automated sets of checklist procedures, for example, pre-flight, in-flight, taxi/takeoff/landing (TTL), and/or post-flight procedures.

Abstract: A touchscreen fuel panel. In embodiments, the fuel panel includes a touchscreen display and a controller coupled to the touchscreen display. The controller is configured to generate a graphical user interface at the touchscreen display and receive user inputs via the touchscreen display. In embodiments, the graphical user interface includes a pump menu with at least one selectable icon for a set of engine boost pumps and a plurality of individually selectable icons for forward, center, and aft pumps. The controller is configured to receive a user input representing a user interaction with the graphical user interface (e.g., an icon selection) via the touchscreen display. The controller is further configured to generate one or more control signals for the set of engine boost pumps, at least one forward pump, at least one center pump, or at least one aft pump based on the user input.

Abstract: A system includes a display device and a control circuit. The control circuit generates an interface including a visual representation of a component of a platform, a status of the component indicated by a plurality of sensors associated with the platform, and one or more user interface elements corresponding to the component of the platform and one or more locations on the interface. The control circuit receives an indication of one or more gestures identifying at least one user interface element; selects an interaction guard from a plurality of interaction guards each corresponding to a respective authorization process identifying at least one authorization gesture; initiates, responsive to the selected interaction guard, the authorization process corresponding to the interaction guard; and causes, responsive to receiving the at least one authorization gesture, an operation of the component corresponding to the identified at least one user interface element.

Abstract: A computer system in an aircraft cockpit includes a touch sensitive input device with symbology replicated at a predetermined location of a heads-up display. The touch input symbology is generally organized for input selection via directional movement; and the system orients the input origin point based on the first point of contact for each new input. The system is adapted for written text recognition with the written text and recognized letters replicated on the heads-up display at a predetermined location.
