Synthetic and Enhanced Vision Systems
Limited visibility is has led to many major and minor aviation related accidents. ...
A synthetic display visible to the flight crew would dramatically increase situational awareness. ... There are to main systems being introduced to the aviation market right now: Synthetic Vision System (SVS) and Enhanced Vision System (EVS). ... SVS uses synthetic visuals to give the pilot an idea of where the terrain is and the EVS “enhances” a real world image to better display mountainous terrain and various lights. ...
SYNTHETIC VISION SYSTEM
Synthetic Vision System uses a real time image to display various information. ... It uses this stored terrain database to show what the pilot would see if their vision was not obscured by mother nature. ...
Onboard sensors for integrity monitoring such as multi-mode weather radar and high quality radar altimeters ensure the accuracy and integrity of the synthetic vision display. ...
Future plans are also implemented to incorporate other aircraft systems into the SVS. Some of these systems are Terrain and Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS) and Flight Director or Navigation Information. ... The display objective is to create path awareness while not obscuring or occluding the terrain portrayal of the synthetic vision image. ... NASA has committed millions of dollars that will be matched by industry funds to advance Synthetic Vision projects over the next year. More funding is expected to be designated later to accelerate commercialization and to make some systems feasible within four to six years. ...
ENHANCED VISION SYSTEM
The Enhanced Vision System is a forward-seeing imaging system that consists of an exterior mounted camera using real-time sensors, typically infrared (IR) technology, signal processing and a cockpit display monitor. ... Some systems actually incorporate both long-wave and short wave into the EVS.
