  • Publication number: 20240201693
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to an aircraft control router for an aircraft. The aircraft control router may include a command processing module, sensor validation module, aircraft state estimation module, and control laws module. The command processing module may be configured to generate aircraft trajectory values based on received aircraft control inputs. The sensor validation module may be configured to validate sensor signals generated by sensors of the aircraft. The aircraft state estimation module may be configured to determine an estimated aircraft state of the aircraft based on the validated sensor signals. The control laws module may be configured to generate actuator commands for actuators of the aircraft to adjust control surfaces of the aircraft, where the generated actuator commands are based on aircraft trajectory values, validated sensor signals, and an estimated aircraft state. The aircraft control router may transmit the generated actuator commands to actuators of the aircraft.

  • Patent number: 11874674
    Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for a vehicle control and interface system configured to facilitate control of different vehicles through universal mechanisms. The vehicle control and interface system can be integrated with different types of vehicles (e.g., rotorcraft, fixed-wing aircraft, motor vehicles, watercraft, etc.) in order to facilitate operation of the different vehicles using universal vehicle control inputs. In particular, the vehicle control and interface system converts universal vehicle control inputs describing a requested trajectory of a vehicle received from one or more universal vehicle control interfaces into commands for specific actuators of the vehicle configured to adjust a current trajectory of the vehicle to the requested trajectory. In order to convert the universal vehicle control inputs to actuator commands the vehicle control and interface system processes the universal vehicle control inputs using a universal vehicle control router.
