  • Patent number: 9858826
    Abstract: A wing protection system for increasing avoidance of grounded aircraft utilizes a plurality of wing clamps attached to an aircraft wing. A wing clamp from the plurality of wing clamps houses an electronics assembly; the electronics assembly including a plurality of sensors, a processor, a transceiver, and a peripheral alert system. The plurality of sensors detects objects approaching the grounded aircraft, while the peripheral alert system provides a visual and audible alert to the presence of the grounded aircraft; the processor receiving signals from the plurality of sensors and dictating appropriate action of the peripheral alert system. The transceiver allows data to be shared with a compatible user device, wherein a software application run on the compatible user device provides a digital representation of the plurality of wing clamps positioned about the aircraft.
