SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTEXT-BASED COCKPIT SIMULATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18172503 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTEXT-BASED COCKPIT SIMULATION

The system described in the patent application involves a communication device, display, input/output interface, processing device, and memory. It is designed to receive electronic flight book (EFB) selection information, select an EFB graphical user interface (GUI) from a range of options, display the chosen GUI, receive flight parameters from a flight management system (FMS), display these parameters on the EFB GUI, allow for changes to be made to the parameters via the input/output interface, and update the FMS with the modified parameters.

  • The system receives EFB selection information to choose an EFB GUI.
  • It displays the selected EFB GUI on the screen.
  • Flight parameters from the FMS are shown on the displayed EFB GUI.
  • Changes to the flight parameters can be made through the input/output interface.
  • The system updates the FMS with the modified parameters.

Potential Applications: - Aviation industry for flight management systems - Aircraft navigation and control systems

Problems Solved: - Streamlining the process of managing flight parameters - Enhancing the user interface for flight information entry and display

Benefits: - Improved efficiency in managing flight information - Enhanced user experience for pilots and flight crew

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Flight Management System Interface for Aircraft" This technology could be utilized by airlines, private jet operators, and aircraft manufacturers to improve the efficiency and accuracy of flight management systems, ultimately leading to safer and more streamlined flight operations.

Prior Art: Researchers can explore existing patents related to flight management systems, electronic flight books, and aircraft navigation interfaces to gain insights into the evolution of this technology.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about advancements in flight management systems, user interface design for aviation applications, and innovations in aircraft navigation technology.

Questions about the Enhanced Flight Management System Interface for Aircraft: 1. How does this technology improve the user experience for pilots and flight crew? 2. What are the key features that set this system apart from traditional flight management interfaces?


Original Abstract Submitted

A system includes a communication device, a display, an input/output interface, a processing device, and a memory, storing one or more instructions that cause the system to: receive electronic flight book (EFB) selection information for selecting one EFB GUI from a plurality of selectable EFB GUIs that provide an interface for entry and display of flight information; select one EFB GUI from the plurality of selectable EFB GUIs based on the received EFB selection information; display the selected EFB GUI on the display; receive one or more flight parameters from a flight management system (FMS); display one or more of the one or more flight parameters on the displayed EFB GUI; receive one or more changes to the one or more flight parameters via the input/output interface; and update one or more of the one or more flight parameters in the FMS based on the received one or more changes.
