Latest Patents
Christopher H Glass holds a patent for "Methods for presenting traffic information on an aircraft display unit." This patent presents novel and non-trivial methods for displaying traffic information. In the first method, data representative of ownship position, first traffic, and second traffic are received by a traffic symbology generator (TSG). The traffic is divided into zones, and a correlation between the targets of the traffic is determined. A traffic symbology data set is generated by the TSG based on the results of the correlation(s). The second method involves receiving data representative of ownship position, first traffic, runway references, and a selectable display range. The traffic is again divided into zones, and a traffic symbology data set is generated thereafter. The third method also involves receiving data representative of ownship position and first traffic, dividing the traffic into zones, and generating a traffic symbology data set.
