Abstract
An extended reality system for generating real-time synthetic imagery during a flight of an aircraft. The system is connectable to a local terrain database via a data network while the aircraft is on the ground and includes: a terrain subset database configured to store a subset of terrain data from the local terrain database; a position database configured to receive a real-time position and orientation of the aircraft during flight; an image generator configured to generate one or more real-time synthetic images of one or more view points from and/or of the aircraft based on the subset of terrain data and the real-time position and orientation of the aircraft; and an encoderconfigured to convert the one or more real-time synthetic images into one or more media streams. The media streams are configured to be transmitted to one or more display devices via a wireless network.
