Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems and methods for incorporating virtual network computing (“VNC”) into a cockpit display system (“CDS”) and controlling an aircraft system and a remote system simultaneously with a VNC-incorporated CDS are disclosed. A system for incorporating VNC into the CDS is comprised of a VNC server of a remote system, at least one first user application (“UA”), a second UA, a pilot input device, and a CDS comprised of, in part, a processing module (“PM”) configured with a method employing an aviation-industry standard protocol (e.g., ARINC 661) and a VNC protocol. A system for controlling the remote system aircraft system with a VNC-incorporated CDS is comprised with a VNC server of the aircraft system and/or the non-aircraft system, a UA, a pilot input device, a display surface format, and a CDS comprised of, in part, a PM configured with a method employing an aviation-industry standard protocol and a VNC protocol.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A system for incorporating Virtual Network Computing (“VNC”) into a cockpit display system, such system comprising: a VNC server of a non-aircraft system; at least one first user application; a second user application; a pilot input device; and a cockpit display system comprised of a processing module configured to establish a pixel data set representative of a first image, where such first image is comprised of at least one non-VNC widget, and eac…
