Methods and systems are provided for displaying visualizations of a vehicle's capability with respect to an input query corresponding to a prospective action to modify operation of the vehicle. One method involves identifying one or more input query parameters, obtaining current status information for the vehicle, identifying one or more performance constraints for the vehicle, and determining a capability envelope for the vehicle for satisfying the one or more input query parameters for the prospective action based at least in part on the current status information and the one or more performance constraints. The capability envelope includes a plurality of potential trajectories for the vehicle different from a reference trajectory for the vehicle. The method provides graphical indicia of the one or more input query parameters and the capability envelope with respect to the reference trajectory on a navigational map display.

Methods and systems for depicting avionics data anomalies in an aircraft. Time series data is received from the avionics data source, a future time is predicted when a first anomaly threshold will be crossed based on the time series data, and the future time when the first anomaly threshold will be crossed is depicted on a display device associated with the aircraft.

A method for determining convective cell growth from weather radar reflectivity data includes receiving first weather reflectivity values and receiving second weather reflectivity values at a point in time subsequent to receiving the first weather reflectivity values, storing the first and second weather reflectivity values in cells of a three-dimensional buffer, for each of the first and second weather reflectivity values, calculating a vertically-integrated reflectivity (VIR) value for a column of cells in the three-dimensional buffer, the column of cells being associated with a latitude/longitude position, and comparing the VIR value for the second weather reflectivity values against the VIR for the first weather reflectivity values to determine a difference in the VIR values. Furthermore, the method includes displaying a cell growth hazard indication at a weather display in an area of the weather display that corresponds to the latitude/longitude position.

A method for determining and optimizing manufacturing of an object by additive manufacturing. One or more computers access a three-dimensional digital model of the object and automatically generate a selected number of versions of supports for manufacture of the object. An image of the generated supports is displayed along with the object for visual perception by a user. The user visually observes the displayed versions of supports and object and uses the images to evaluate whether manufacturing the object by additive manufacturing is viable and whether the additive manufacturing supports are optimized. When viable, the object may be built by additive manufacturing using the optimized additive manufacturing supports to support the object.

Methods and systems are provided for monitoring sensors and other data sources and detecting data anomalies. One exemplary method involves determining a probable range for a metric influenced by a behavior a sensor based at least in part on historical data associated with the sensor, identifying an anomalous condition with respect to the sensor based on a relationship between a current value for the metric indicative of a current behavior of the sensor and the probable range, and providing a graphical indication of the anomalous condition on a display device.

A method for providing operational awareness data onboard an aircraft, by a computing device comprising at least a processor and a system memory element, is provided. The method continuously identifies deviations from operational goals of the aircraft, by the processor, based on a current state of the aircraft, a predicted state of the aircraft, and flight crew perception of the current state and the predicted state; and autonomously initiates a dialogue with flight crew onboard the aircraft by providing voice-data prompts for user action onboard the aircraft, by the processor onboard the aircraft, based on the deviations.

Methods, systems and apparatuses are provided to perform a continuous-to-continuous mapping of neural signal data received from one or more body sensors connected to an user wherein the one or more body sensors monitors at least neural activities of the user of a sub-vocalized voice at a sensory level and sends the neural signal data to a processor. The processor receives the neural signal data in an iterative closed loop to train the processor and to generate a sufficiently large data set in the neural signal domain to link to a produced voice domain. The processor constructs a common feature space which associates the neural signal domain with the produced voice domain wherein the common feature space implicitly extracts features related to audio communications for linking neural signal domain data to the produced voice data without requiring any prior feature classification of the received neural signal data.

A system and method for detecting pilot fatigue in an aircraft having at least an airframe and a pilot-operated aircraft control device includes detecting movements of the aircraft control device, and determining when the pilot is fatigued based on the detected movements of the aircraft control device.
