  • Patent number: 10853014
    Abstract: A head wearable device, a method, and a system. The head wearable device may include a transparent display and a non-transparent display. The transparent display may be implemented in or on the head wearable device. The transparent display may be configured to present first content to a user of the head wearable device. The non-transparent display may be implemented in or on the head wearable device. The non-transparent display may be configured to present second content to the user of the head wearable device. The non-transparent display may be viewable at least in part through the transparent display.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10380801
    Abstract: A head wearable device, a method, and a system. The head wearable device may include a display, a head tracking system, a user input system, and a processor. The processor may be configured to output a stream of image data to the display for presentation to the user, the image data associated with images aligned with a determined position and a determined orientation of the head of the user relative to an environment, the images including a user-selectable depiction of a teamed asset. The processor may be further configured to receive user input data from the user input system, wherein the user input data includes user selection data associated with a selected teamed asset. The processor may be further configured to update the stream of image data associated with the images such that the images further include a depiction of information associated with the selected teamed asset.

  • Patent number: 10376198
    Abstract: An on aircraft computer system records and analyzes biometric data to identify indicia of impaired performance, such as pilot fatigue, attention tunneling, or cognitive overload. Such impairment is identified by alterations in pilot gaze or eye movement, head movement, facial parameters, eye lid position, heart rate, breathing, or brain wave patterns. Appropriate corrective action is applied based on the type of impaired performance identified, including altering a level of automation, contacting a ground dispatcher or ground pilot, or contacting a co-pilot or other crew member. Biometric data is continuously logged and correlated with data from other avionics systems to refine formulas relating biometric data to states of alertness and crew rest procedures.
