Abstract
An aircraft search light system is disclosed. Voice commands may be used to control one or more aspects of the operation of the aircraft search light system, including to initiate the detection of objects in image data, to select a particular object in the image data to be tracked by the search light, and the like. The search light may be moved based upon processed image data, for instance such that the selected object continues to be illuminated by the search light. Voice commands may also be used to initiate movement the search light relative to the selected object (e.g., to keep the selected object in the field of view of the search light). Audio output may be generated by the aircraft search light system to provide information to aircraft personnel on the processed image data, and on which one or more subsequent voice commands may be based.
