Book Head Up Displays  Designing the Way Ahead

Download or read book Head Up Displays Designing the Way Ahead written by Richard L. Newman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a thorough description of this increasingly important technology, starting from the development of head-up displays (HUDs), particularly specifications and standards and operational problems associated with HUD use. HUD involvement in spatial disorientation and its use in recognizing and recovering from unusual attitudes is discussed. The book summarizes the design criteria including hardware, software, interface and display criteria. It goes on to outline flight tasks to be used for evaluating HUDs and discusses the impact of HUDs on flight training. Recent work indicates that a HUD may allow a significant reduction in the time required to train a pilot on a particular aircraft, even considering non-HUD-related tasks. The author concludes with a review of unresolved HUD issues and recommendations for further research and provides an impressive bibliography, glossary and index. Within the military aviation sector the book will be of use to industry, research agencies, test pilot schools and air force training establishments. In the civil area regulatory authorities, airlines and industry will also have an increasing interest.

Book A Head Up Display Format for Application to V Stol Aircraft Approach and Landing

Download or read book A Head Up Display Format for Application to V Stol Aircraft Approach and Landing written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-02 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A head up display (HUD) format developed at NASA Ames Research Center to provide pilots of V/STOL aircraft with complete flight guidance and control information for category-3C terminal-area flight operations, is described in detail. These flight operations cover a large spectrum, from STOL operations on land-based runways to VTOL operations on small ships in high seas. Included in this description is a complete geometrical specification of the HUD elements and their drive laws. The principal features of this display format are the integration of the flightpath and pursuit guidance information into a narrow field of view, easily assimilated by the pilot with a single glance, and the superposition of vertical and horizontal situation information. The display is a derivative of a successful design developed for conventional transport aircraft. The design is the outcome of many piloted simulations conducted over a four-year period. Whereas the concepts on which the display format rests could not be fully exploited because of field-of-view restrictions, and some reservations remain about the acceptability of superimposing vertical and horizontal situation information, the design successfully fulfilled its intended objectives.

Book Cockpit Displays  Test and Evaluation

Download or read book Cockpit Displays Test and Evaluation written by Richard L. Newman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cockpit Displays is an in-depth examination of the design rationales, test philosophy and test procedures for cockpit systems. Whilst its main emphasis is on cockpit displays, it also includes an important discussion of flight management systems and mission computers. Areas covered include: the cockpit design process, test techniques for flight displays and equipment, and situation awareness testing. Comparing civil and military requirements, it is an important analysis of the lessons learned from test and evaluation and will be of interest to cockpit systems design engineering staff at major airframe manufacturers, procurement executives and program managers at military aircraft program offices and flight test engineers and test pilots.

Book Improvement of Head Up Display Standards  Volume 5  Head Up Display ILS  Instrument Landing System  Accuracy Flight Tests

Download or read book Improvement of Head Up Display Standards Volume 5 Head Up Display ILS Instrument Landing System Accuracy Flight Tests written by Richard L. Newman and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-flight investigation of the effect of head-up display symbol accuracy has been conducted using a variable stability T-33 aircraft. The results indicate that 100-200 ft lateral errors and 500-1500 ft longitudinal errors in locating a contact analog synthetic runway did not cause difficulties for the evaluation pilots. There was no apparent tendency for the subjects to follow HUD cues and ignore real world cues. Keywords: Head up display, Symbology, Instrument, Flight control, Flight tests, Accuracy, Display.

Book Light line Visual Landing Head up Display Evaluation

Download or read book Light line Visual Landing Head up Display Evaluation written by Manuel H. Tapia and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Light-Line Head-Up Display (HUD) Evaluation is part of an exploratory program being conducted by the Air Force Flight Dynamics Laboratory, Flight Control Division (AFFDL/FGR), Wright-Patterson AFB OH, to investigate HUD systems/concepts to aid the pilot in maintaining a specified vertical path during visual landings. The HUD was evaluated at Randolph AFB by the USAF Instrument Flight Center, Research and Development Division (USAFIFC/RD), to determine the pilots' acceptance and operational utility of the Light-Line HUD from a pilot factors point of view. The Light-Line HUD shows flight path angle, angle-of-attack derived speed error, and lateral touchdown zone information in an easily interpretable form. The HUD (designed as a visual landing aid) provides the pilot a three-dimensional cue (light-line wand). The wand appears to be suspended in space emanating from the pilot's chest, and terminating on the desired aim point. The light-line display system which is focused at infinity, depicts a combination velocity vector (four strobing-line segments) and flightpath vector (transverse bar). Thus, the pilot is provided augmentive information without having to focus on the display. The wand has the capability to move laterally across the focal plane as well as longitudinally. This provides a realistic representation of the flightpath vector in three- dimensional space.
