Abstract: Method and device for assisting in the piloting of an aircraft. The device (1) comprises means (15) for generating warning information if a risk of collision with an aircraft in the vicinity exists and means (2) for presenting, on a display screen (4), in a vertical plane, a graphical characteristic representing a corresponding warning signal.

Abstract: Method and device for determining the lateral path of a moving body, in particular of an aircraft. The device (1) comprises means (7) for determining, from a first lateral path and a lateral distance dependent on the external visibility, a second lateral path corresponding to the lateral path of the path, in particular a flight path, which is followed by the moving body.

Abstract: Device for determining a maximum lateral separation of a follower craft with respect to a lead craft. The device (1) comprises means (12) for deducing automatically from minimum turning radii of a lead craft and from a maximum turning radius of a follower craft, the maximum possible lateral separation of the follower craft with respect to the lead craft, on each side of the trajectory of the latter.

Abstract: The device (1) comprises means (14) for detecting all the aircraft in the vicinity and means (2) for presenting, on a display screen (4) illustrating a vertical plane, characteristic symbols indicating the positions of these aircraft in the vicinity.

Abstract: The system (1) comprises measurement means (2) for carrying out position measurements relating to at least one position dependent on the second moving object, processing means (3) mounted on the first moving object, and connected to the measurement means (2), and intended for the processing of said position measurements so as to produce a characteristic position, a display device (4) mounted on the first moving object, connected to the processing means (3), and presenting on a viewing screen (6), on a display illustrating at least partially the environment of the first moving object, a position indication which is situated at said characteristic position, and triggering means (7) for triggering the implementation of measurements by said measurement means (2).

Abstract: An aircraft cockpit display device for information concerning surrounding traffic includes devices to receive information coming from outside the aircraft, to know the flight parameters of the aircraft, to calculate projected trajectories of the aircraft and of a detected aircraft in the immediate vicinity, and to display a representation of the surrounding traffic through symbols and potential messages based on instructions received. A display command device is connected to an on-board calculator to know the flight phase of the aircraft. The display command device has a filtering device to define for each flight phase and/or crew task the nature and the level of information to be displayed.
