  • Publication number: 20210150923
    Abstract: Electronic device for estimating a position of an air traffic element intended to be carried on board an aircraft, and comprising a module for acquiring a measured position of the air traffic element and complementary measured navigation information of the air traffic element; and a module for calculating an estimated position of the air traffic element. The calculation module is configured to calculate the estimated position of the air traffic element as a function of the measured position and of the complementary measured navigation information acquired for the air traffic element. The complementary measured navigation information is preferably a measured position of the complementary air traffic element, or a set of at least two measured positions of the complementary air traffic element, or even a measured speed of the air traffic element.

  • Patent number: 10794724
    Abstract: This electronic interface device between at least one avionic system and a set of sensors, each avionic system and the sensors being capable of being connected to an electronic interface device, is intended to be on board an aircraft. It comprises a module for detecting a first signal sent by a user or a piece of electronic equipment and received by a first sensor of the set; a module for activating at least a first sensor of the set, for receiving a second signal from the user or the piece of electronic equipment, each second sensor being determined based on the first signal and predefined determining rules; a module for acquiring the second signal received by each second sensor; and a module for generating a message corresponding to the second signal and sending said message to one or several avionic systems.
