METHOD OF SYNTHETIC VISUALIZATION OF A SCENE VIEWED FROM AN AIRCRAFT AND TO A SYNTHETIC VISION SYSTEM FOR IMPLEMENTING SUCH A METHOD

摘要

A method of synthetic visualization of a scene viewed from an aircraft and synthetic vision system. The system includes a processing unit for generating a synthetic image of a scene ahead of the aircraft, a unit for displaying on a visualization screen a background image corresponding to this synthetic image and symbols for piloting the aircraft, and a monitoring device including a unit for generating at least two virtual control elements, representations of the control elements integrated into the synthetic image, a unit for detecting on the synthetic image the representations and their position, and a unit for verifying whether these positions are consistent with position of a line of zero pitch and/or of a line of zero roll of the aircraft, the display being carried out only in case of consistency between these positions, that is to say the absence of any problem of orientation of the synthetic image.
