  • Patent number: 9950806
    Abstract: A method for displaying an outside scene on a cockpit display system. The system comprises two display areas contiguous along a horizontal aircraft axis and a processor to generate the display, on one of the areas, of an initial scene image from data from the aircraft's avionics electronics, the data comprising the aircraft's sideslip angle ?. The processor displays, on the scene image, a flight path vector indicating a point on the scene image towards which the aircraft is heading. When the measured angle ? exceeds a threshold, the processor displays the initial scene image on a first display area and the display of a supplementary outside scene image, on a second display area, the supplementary scene image representing a lateral extension of the initial scene image. The processor also displays the flight path vector superimposed on one of the two images based on a value of angle ?.

  • Patent number: 9260198
    Abstract: A system including a switching device for switching an auxiliary display unit between a first state, corresponding to nominal operation, for which a screen of said auxiliary display unit is controlled by a control assembly of a main display unit, and a second, standby state, corresponding to a situation in which the main display unit has broken down, for which state said screen is controlled by a control assembly of said auxiliary display unit.

  • Patent number: 8983686
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device aboard an aircraft comprising output means configured to restore information relating to the aircraft status from aircraft systems, the device including a module providing interface between said output means and said aircraft systems, said module being configured to synthesize information from aircraft systems depending on predetermined behavior rules and to transmit said information thus synthesized to said output means.

  • Patent number: 8873503
    Abstract: The method for transmitting information in an ad hoc network comprises at least two transceiver nodes able to receive and transmit information and communicating with each other by sending information in random access time slots organized in frames. The nodes of the network are broken down into groups according to a distribution rule, the nodes of each group only having the right to transmit information in a predefined subset of frames specific to the group.
