Abstract: Systems and methods for navigating an aerial vehicle are provided. One example aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a method for navigating an aircraft. The method includes receiving, by one or more processors, one or more first geographic coordinates via an interface configured to receive geographic coordinates from a satellite transmission. The method includes receiving, by the one or more processors, one or more second geographic coordinates via an interface configured to receive geographic coordinates from a ground transmission. The method includes determining, by the one or more processors, that the one or more first geographic coordinates and the one or more second geographic coordinates are inconsistent. The method includes updating, by the one or more processors, a flight plan using the one or more second geographic coordinates when the one or more first geographic coordinates are inconsistent with the one or more second geographic coordinates.

Abstract: An oral care system includes a toothbrush and a dispenser detachably coupled to the toothbrush. The dispenser includes a collapsible bladder containing an oral care material. A compression device assembly includes an actuator operably coupled to a compression device movably mounted inside the dispenser. In one embodiment, the compression device includes a feed slot that engages opposite sides of the collapsible bladder. Actuating the actuator translates the compression device in a first longitudinal direction extruding and dispensing the oral care material from the oral care product dispenser. The actuator may be slideably mounted to the dispenser in one embodiment. A ratcheting mechanism may be provided to provide indexed movement of the compression device, thereby dispensing predetermined doses of the oral care material with each indexed movement.

Abstract: An oral care system includes a dispenser comprising a product tube having a reservoir containing an oral care material and an outlet. In one embodiment, the dispenser may be configured for detachable coupling to a toothbrush. A compression device engages the product tube and pressurizes the tube contents. The oral care material may be dispensed by actuating a valve fluidly coupled to the reservoir and outlet. In one embodiment, actuating the valve includes a flow orifice movable into and out of a flow path through the dispenser. Oral care material may be dispensed by positioning the orifice in the flow path in which the pressurized material flows outwards the product tube. To stop the flow of oral care material, the orifice is removed from the flow path which blocks the path. An operating button is provided in one embodiment to change position of the flow orifice.

Abstract: An oral care system includes a toothbrush and a dispenser detachably coupled to the toothbrush. The dispenser includes a chamber containing an oral care material. A compression device assembly includes an actuator operably coupled to a compression device movably mounted inside the dispenser. In one embodiment, the actuator may be a ratcheting rocker switch that alternatingly engages gear racks formed on the dispenser housing. Actuating the rocker switch imparts pivotable and indexed linear motion to the switch. This in turn axially translates the compression device in a first longitudinal direction thereby compressing and extruding the oral care material from the dispenser. The corresponding indexed movement of the compression device dispenses predetermined doses of the oral care material providing precise control over the amount of oral care material dispensed.

Abstract: A method of operating an aircraft comprising a cockpit with a flight deck having at least one flight display, a pilot's seat facing the flight deck, and a synthetic vision system producing a synthetic image for displaying on the at least one flight display.

Abstract: A method for illustrating an aircraft flight plan comprising at least one waypoint on a flight display of a flight deck of an aircraft, where the method may include displaying on the flight display of the flight deck some type of display indicia that indicates the suitability of locations for future waypoints.

Abstract: Methods of illustrating one or more derated takeoffs of an aircraft on a runway where such illustrations are on a flight display in a cockpit of the aircraft and are based on various information and may allow pilots to make more accurate decisions related to derated takeoffs and full thrust takeoffs of the aircraft.

Abstract: A method for displaying a flight plan having at least one waypoint on a flight display of a flight deck of an aircraft having known flight constraints, including receiving a user input for a user-inputted waypoint and generating an alternative waypoint when the user-inputted waypoint is not suitable and displaying same.

Abstract: A flight deck for an aircraft having a first display associated with a first pilot and displaying a first image comprising a first set of flight information for the first pilot and a second display associated with a second pilot and displaying a second image comprising a second set of flight information for the second pilot. The second display is a dual-view display simultaneously generating a third image along with the second image, with the second image viewable by the second pilot, but not the first pilot, the third image viewable by the first pilot, but not the second pilot, and the third image containing a subset of information from the second set of flight information.

Abstract: A method for selecting and displaying a flight path for an aircraft on a display of a flight deck of the aircraft that allows a user to input a selected flight path on a map displayed on the display. A final flight path will be displayed on the display of the flight deck that is based on the input of the selected flight path.
