Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A vehicle display system displays approach lights acquired by a vision system overlaid on, and aligned with, a stored synthetic approach light symbol. A stored approach light type that corresponds to the target runway may be verified to match the acquired approach lights. A synthetic approach light symbol that corresponds to the approach light type is chosen and aligned with the approach lights for display.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A system comprising: an electronic sensor configured to acquire an enhanced image including approach lights; a display; a database configured to store a plurality of approach light types, and one of a plurality of synthetic approach light symbols associated with each of the approach light types; and a processor coupled to the sensor and configured to: detect approach lights in the image and determine their position within the image; determine an exp…
