Abstract
A system for enhancing an image displayed on a display unit of an aircraft is shown and described. The system includes an enhanced vision system that detects a scene and enhances the scene for display on the display unit. The enhanced vision system includes a sensor having a filter configured to filter out all but at least one narrowband spectrum of light from the scene to detect elements of a first color. The enhanced vision system causes remaining content of the scene to be removed from the filter output for completing the detection of the elements of the first color. The enhanced vision system enhances the elements of the first color on the display unit.
