Abstract: A method of generating a peripheral image of an aircraft having pixels obtained from a plurality of cameras equipping the aircraft. The method is implemented by an electronic generation device. The method comprises a step of receiving a position of a peripheral point of view from which the peripheral image is to be generated. The method comprises steps of obtaining an orientation of the aircraft and of acquisition of a respective image from each camera. The method comprises a step of calculating a respective transfer function for each camera, each transfer function being intended for being applied to a pixel of the peripheral image so as to identify a possible corresponding pixel of the acquired image associated with the transfer function. The method comprises a step of generating the peripheral image from the images acquired from each camera and from each calculated transfer function.

Abstract: Method for controlling an unmanned aircraft piloted by a fully autonomous control system including a first decision module and a simplex piloting control module including a high-performance controller, a high-safety controller and a second decision module, the high-performance and high-safety controllers determining piloting commands for the robot-aircraft, according to which: —as long as a set of conditions is verified, implementation by the first decision module of a nominal piloting mode with delivery to the output of the automatic control system of the piloting commands delivered to the output of the simplex piloting control module; —otherwise, switching to an emergency piloting mode, an emergency piloting command is delivered to the output of the automatic control system for execution by the robot-aircraft, the first decision module preventing the delivery to the output of the automatic control system of the piloting commands delivered to the output of the simplex module.
