Abstract: Systems and methods for augmented reality (AR) safe visualization for use with a near to eye (NTE) display system worn by a user are provided. The system includes: a processor programmed with an AR program and a task database storing task data; and, a camera mounted to the NTE display system and providing video input. The processor receives the video input and coordinates video image processing of the video input to identify therein a user's hand and an object. The processor receives an intended task from the user and retrieves associated task data based thereon. The processor processes the task data with the intended task to render a visualized item, such as a job card. The processor determines when the visualized item is in front of the hand while the user is performing the task and removes the visualized item responsive thereto.

Abstract: Systems and methods for an enhanced computer vision module are presented. The system receives host locating information, and determines a position and a location of the host based on the host locating information. The system determines a field of view (FOV) of the host based on the host locating information, and controls a camera associated with the host that is configured to record a video stream comprising the FOV. The system and method provide an improvement over conventional computer vision (CV) systems by utilizing object locating information that is transmitted, and also by keeping a storage table of learned and fixed objects. The provided system and method improve the efficiency of object recognition and computer aided maintenance (CAM).

Abstract: A method for displaying stop bar information to an aircrew member of an aircraft includes the steps of capturing a light signature emitted from an area surrounding the aircraft, processing the captured light signature to detect a lighted stop bar, and providing information to the aircrew member regarding the detection of the lighted stop bar.

Abstract: A system is configured to generate and display information regarding a strike zone of an aircraft. In some examples, a system is configured to generate and display an image of an environment around an aircraft together with a graphical indication of a strike zone of the aircraft, where the indication is scaled to reflect the strike zone at a distance range of one or more detected objects.

Abstract: A vehicle display system displays approach lights acquired by a vision system overlaid on, and aligned with, a stored synthetic approach light symbol. A stored approach light type that corresponds to the target runway may be verified to match the acquired approach lights. A synthetic approach light symbol that corresponds to the approach light type is chosen and aligned with the approach lights for display.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for completing and displaying a taxi clearance for an aircraft at an airport. One exemplary method involves receiving an input taxi clearance including a first taxi path of a plurality of taxi paths at the airport and a second taxi path of the plurality of taxi paths that succeeds the first taxi path in the input taxi clearance, and determining a plurality of possible taxi routes between the first taxi path and the second taxi path. The method continues by identifying an optimal taxi route from among the plurality of possible taxi routes, and graphically indicating that the taxi clearance for the aircraft includes the optimal taxi route between the first taxi path and the second taxi path.
