  • Patent number: 12185785
    Abstract: A method for fitting a pre-existing standard helmet to the head of a user, the helmet includes an optronic device intended to be positioned in front of the eyes of the user, the method comprising: A) measuring the dimensions of the user's head, the dimensions of the head comprising a volume of the head and a position of the eyes, B) obtaining the dimensions of the helmet, the dimensions of the helmet including a volume of the helmet, C) defining a lining for the helmet so as to ensure the positioning of the optronic device in front of the user's eyes, the lining having a top face that is intended to be applied against an inner face of the helmet and a bottom face that is intended to be applied against the user's head, the lining having a flexible cellular structure, the manufacture of the lining being adapted to the dimensions of the head and to the dimensions of the helmet, D) manufacturing the lining as defined in step C), and E) placing the lining inside the helmet.

  • Patent number: 11853113
    Abstract: A device for monitoring the execution of an application on a processor, the device comprising: a time counter, a control module configured to reset the time counter at the end of a time period if a reset command has been received by the monitoring device in a time window and to generate a sanction command of the processor otherwise, an inhibition module configured to inhibit the time counter during the reception of an inhibition command at the input of the monitoring device, and a reactivation module configured to reactivate the time counter during the reception of a reactivation command at the input of the monitoring device.

  • Patent number: 11405827
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a storage method of digital files carried out by a determinist avionic network with predetermined routing. This method comprises a phase (PE) for writing digital files comprising the steps of determining by an end system sending a digital file to be stored, associating a time reference with the digital file to be stored, sending the digital file to be stored with the associated time reference to K separate switches using one or several data frames, generating, via at least some of the switches, a copy of the digital file to be stored and storing this copy in the storage unit of each of these switches with the associated time reference.
