==AUGMENTED REALITY THROUGH DIGITAL AIRCRAFT WINDOWS OF AIRCRAFT INFLIGHT ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240010340 titled 'AUGMENTED REALITY THROUGH DIGITAL AIRCRAFT WINDOWS OF AIRCRAFT INFLIGHT ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes an augmented reality (AR) system for aircraft that allows passengers to view additional information about real-world objects through a window. The system obtains the aircraft and passenger poses, computes the passenger's field-of-view, and selects relevant points of information (POIs) from a database. For each POI, the system determines the AR indicia to be displayed and where it should be rendered on a display device. A display command is generated and provided to the display device to show the AR indicia, augmenting the passenger's view.

* The system uses augmented reality to provide additional information to aircraft passengers.
* It obtains the aircraft and passenger poses to determine the passenger's field-of-view.
* Relevant points of information (POIs) are selected from a database based on a relevance rule.
* For each POI, the system determines the AR indicia to be displayed and its pose on the display device.
* A display command is generated and provided to the display device to show the AR indicia, enhancing the passenger's view.

Potential Applications:
* Enhancing the in-flight experience for passengers by providing additional information about landmarks, points of interest, or other objects visible through the window.
* Assisting passengers in identifying and learning about objects or locations of interest during a flight.
* Providing real-time information about flight status, weather conditions, or nearby airports to passengers.

Problems Solved:
* Lack of information or context for passengers viewing objects through an aircraft window.
* Difficulty in identifying or understanding objects or locations of interest during a flight.
* Limited interaction or engagement with the surrounding environment during a flight.

Benefits:
* Improved passenger experience by providing informative and interactive content during a flight.
* Enhanced educational opportunities for passengers to learn about landmarks, geography, or other subjects.
* Increased engagement and interest in the surrounding environment, making flights more enjoyable.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

an augmented reality (ar) system for an aircraft obtains an aircraft pose, determines a passenger pose relative to a window, and computes a field-of-view of the passenger. operations select a set of passenger-relevant points of information (pois) from a database that satisfy a relevance rule to the real-world objects viewable by the passenger through the window. for each of the passenger-relevant pois in the set, operations determine an ar indicia to be displayed, and an ar indicia pose where the ar indicia is to be rendered on a display device. operations generate a display command based on the ar indicia and the ar indicia pose for the passenger-relevant pois in the set. operations provide the display command to the display device to display renderings of the ar indicias with the ar indicia poses to augment the real-world objects viewed by the passenger through the window.
