US Patent:
7148816, Dec 12, 2006
Filed:
Aug 30, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/929250
Inventors:
Matthew J. Carrico - Mount Vernon IA, US
Assignee:
Rockwell Collins, Inc. - Cedar Rapids IA
International Classification:
G08G 5/04
US Classification:
340961, 340971, 701 14
Abstract:
A method of displaying traffic information is disclosed. The method comprises providing traffic information from at least one of a first and a second traffic information system to a traffic display system. The method also comprises choosing to display, by the traffic display system, traffic information from the first traffic information system when no traffic information from the second traffic information system is available. Further, the method comprises choosing to display, by the traffic display system, traffic information from the second traffic information system when no traffic information from the first traffic information system is available. The method further comprises choosing to display, by the traffic display system, traffic information from either the first traffic information system or the second traffic information system using a predetermined selection algorithm when traffic information is available from both traffic information systems. Further still, the method comprises choosing to display, by the traffic display system, traffic information from the first traffic information system when an advisory condition is indicated by the first traffic information system.

Appl. No.:
11/368075
Inventors:
Michael J. Krenz - Cedar Rapids IA, US
Arlen E. Breiholz - Cedar Rapids IA, US
Matthew J. Carrico - Mount Vernon IA, US
Kenneth W. Mc Elreath - Mount Vernon IA, US
Assignee:
Rockwell Collins, Inc. - Cedar Rapids IA
International Classification:
G01C 21/00
US Classification:
340976, 340971, 340979, 340972, 340975, 701302, 701 16
Abstract:
A current path display indicator for a display device of a vehicle. The current path display indicator includes a flight path indicator (FPI) and a visual cue associated with the FPI to indicate relative direction from the vehicle's current path to a desired path. The visual cue may be embodied in possibly a number of different ways. For example, it may be embodied as an arrow extending from a circular portion of the FPI; a highlighted segment superimposed on the circular portion of the FPI; a triangle extending from the circular portion; or, a pie-shaped marker contained within the circular portion.

US Patent:
7668628, Feb 23, 2010
Filed:
Sep 19, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/230246
Inventors:
Matthew J. Carrico - Mount Vernon IA, US
Assignee:
Rockwell Collins, Inc. - Cedar Rapids IA

System, Module, And Method For Presenting Runway Advisory Information To A Pilot

View page
US Patent:
8193948, Jun 5, 2012
Filed:
Sep 30, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/570019
Inventors:
Geoffrey A. Shapiro - Cedar Rapids IA, US
Alena L. Benson - Seattle WA, US
Matthew J. Carrico - Mount Vernon IA, US
Randy H. Jacobson - Melbourne FL, US
Assignee:
Rockwell Collins, Inc. - Cedar Rapids IA
International Classification:
G08B 23/00
US Classification:
340965, 340969, 340971, 340972, 340980, 340945, 340947, 340951, 340953, 340961, 701 8, 701 9, 701 11, 701 16, 701 18
Abstract:
A present novel and non-trivial system, module, and method for presenting runway advisory information are disclosed. A runway reference may be established using data received from a source of navigation reference data, where such data could represent runway information, runway awareness zone information, landing awareness zone information, and/or runway threshold line information. Navigation data representative of at least aircraft location and input factor data may be received from a source. Phase of flight may be determined using input factor data, and a runway advisory data set may be generated as a function of phase of flight and the positional relationship between aircraft location and the runway reference. Runway advisory data set may be representative of advisory information comprised of visual runway advisory information, aural runway advisory information, tactile advisory information, or a combination thereof. A presentation system receives the runway advisory data set and presents advisory information.

Matthew J. Carrico - Mount Vernon IA, US
Assignee:
Rockwell Collins, Inc. - Cedar Rapids IA
International Classification:
G01C 21/00
US Classification:
340971, 340945, 340951, 340964
Abstract:
An operational flight phase determination and indication system for an aircraft includes input/output circuitry for receiving an operational flight phase selector output signal and aircraft sensor signals. A processor is coupled to the input/output circuitry. A flight phase data table is coupled to the processor.

The flight phase transition rules set includes flight rules for defining flight phase transitions. Program memory and working memory are coupled to the processor. The processor uses input from the input/output circuitry, the flight phase data table, the flight phase transition rules set, the program memory and the working memory to provide an operational mode signal indicating the operational mode of the aircraft. A flight phase selector is coupled to the processor for providing the flight phase selector signal to the processor in accordance with the pilot selected flight phase input. A display indicator driver is coupled to the processor for providing display indicator driver signals to an operational flight phase indicator in accordance with the operational mode signal.

Inventors:
Matthew J. Carrico - Mount Vernon IA, US
Maureen A. Lehman - Cedar Rapids IA, US
Assignee:
Rockwell Collins, Inc. - Cedar Rapids IA
International Classification:
G06F 17/00
G05D 1/02
G05D 3/12

B64C 13/00
US Classification:
701 3, 701 11, 701 45, 701120, 340945, 340965, 340972, 340988
Abstract:
A hold line awareness system for alerting an occupant of an aircraft that the aircraft is approaching a hold line at an airport. In one broad aspect the invention includes an airport database located on an aircraft. The airport database is configured to store location information for a plurality of hold lines at the airport. A positioning system is located on the aircraft. The positioning system is configured to determine the aircraft location. A processor is located on the aircraft and is operatively connected to the airport database and the positioning system. The processor is configured to calculate the distance between the aircraft location and a hold line and provide a processor alerting output signal if the distance is less than a predetermined value. A sensory effector is located on the aircraft and operatively connected to the processor for receiving the processor alerting output signal and providing a tactile alert to an occupant in response thereto. In another broad aspect, a real time feature detecting system is utilized instead of the airport database.
