OFFBOARD GRAPHICS RENDERING GATEWAY VIA AVIONICS FULL DUPLEX ETHERNET FOR A COCKPIT DISPLAY SYSTEM

Abstract: a cockpit display system for an aircraft including an off-board graphics rendering gateway system providing additional cockpit display and other functionality. the cockpit display system includes a cockpit display subsystem having a display, a subsystem processor and integrated modular avionics (ima) with user applications and cockpit display software. the cockpit display system also includes an off-board processor for processing aircraft functionality applications that are not available on the cockpit display subsystem, where the off-board processor provides graphical data over fiber optics to the cockpit display subsystem to be displayed by the cockpit display subsystem. the off-board processor includes a graphics gateway sub-processor that is in communication with the cockpit display subsystem, where the graphics gateway sub-processor exchanges data and information with the cockpit display subsystem over ethernet cables to provide synchronization with the graphical data provided by the off-board processor to the cockpit display subsystem.
