Virtual reality based safety system for airborne platforms
Abstract The ability to use computer generated high quality real-time video provides engineers/scientists/electronic game designers a powerful tool in many applications. The advent of micro-electronics further enables complicated devices to be put into smaller, inexpensive, and robust packages. During the last few years, smaller video-image-based devices have been installed in land-based vehicles to enhance driving comfort, convenience, and safety. These include navigational aids, GPS, collision avoidance devices, and many others. The proliferation of these devices is mainly due to the relatively inexpensive and short life span of land vehicles compared to that of airplanes (and submarines). This paper reports the development of a pilot/driver aid that can be used as an add-on to existing vehicles with minimal retrofit. With this device, pilots or drivers can operate the vehicles under extreme weather conditions when visual contact with the out-of-the-window view is not available. The implementation of this process is used not only for manned helicopters but also as a training aid for unmanned helicopter pilots.
