  • Patent number: 10861342
    Abstract: A system for displaying information related to a flight of an aircraft and an associated method are provided. The display system comprises a dynamic synthesis image generating module, configured to generate at least two successive transition synthesis images between an image according to a first type of perspective and an image according to a second type of perspective, or between an image according to a second type of perspective and an image according to a first type of perspective, respectively, and to command the display thereof at successive transition moments.

  • Patent number: 10814984
    Abstract: A device for waking up a crew member resting on an aircraft includes a processing unit configured to detect current development parameters of the aircraft and/or to detect a state of consciousness of at least one other active crewmember. The processing unit is also configured to activate an apparatus for waking up the resting crew member, when at least one predetermined condition for waking up the resting crew member on one or several current parameters of the aircraft and/or on a parameter representative of the state of consciousness of the at least one other active crew member is satisfied.

  • Patent number: 10339820
    Abstract: A system for displaying information related to a flight of an aircraft and an associated method are provided. The display system comprises a display device, a man-machine interface, a module for dynamically generating synthesis images, each comprising a synthetic depiction of the environment and a curve representative of a trajectory, said module being configured to generate a first synthesis image centered around a first central point of interest, to command the display thereof, and to detect an action to modify the central point of interest by an operator via said man-machine interface. The generating module is also configured to determine, as a function of said modification action, a second central point of interest, situated along said curve whatever said modification action is, to generate a second synthesis image centered around said second central point of interest, and to command the display thereof.

  • Publication number: 20170291691
    Abstract: An assistance method for assisting flying of an aircraft with restriction of possibilities of adjusting the flying parameters depending on the context, and corresponding device are provided. The assistance method for assisting flying of an aircraft includes the steps of: configuring at least one flying mode, the configuration comprising selecting a flying mode selected from among an available flying mode and entering at least one flying setpoint associated with the selected flying mode, presenting the or each configured flying mode, engaging at least one configured flying mode, and flying of the aircraft by an automatic pilot system of the aircraft based on the flying setpoint of the or each engaged flying mode. The method also includes a step for collecting at least one avionics parameter representative of a flying context, and a step for restricting configuration possibilities of the flying modes based on the or each collected avionics parameter.
