A method for assisting the piloting of an aircraft on the ground comprises the steps of obtaining a panoramic view of at least one area adjacent to the aircraft, isolating an image corresponding to a part of the panoramic view and which is selected according to an orientation desired by the pilot, and displaying the image on a display device visible by the pilot. A system for the implementation of the method is also provided.

Method for assisting the piloting of an aircraft on the ground and system for its implementation

An interaction method in an aircraft cockpit between a pilot and his environment. The cockpit includes a plurality of activation zones which each comprise an element of interest which is connected with the cockpit or the external environment thereof and which can be activated on the basis of the interaction of at least one movable member of the pilot's body with the activation zone. The method includes the steps of establishing, in a manner repeated over time, the spatial position of the movable member of the pilot's body and a comparison between such spatial position and the position of the activation zones and automatic activation of the activation zone in the environment of the pilot in order to inform the pilot about the availability of further interaction with the element of interest involved. The method improves the interaction between the pilot and his environment connected with the cockpit.
