Technical Design Concepts To Improve Helicopter Obstacle Avoidance And Operations In “Brownout” Conditions

US Patent:
7106217, Sep 12, 2006
Filed:
Mar 31, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/816218
Inventors:
John H. Judge - Woodbury CT, US
John J. Occhiato - Derby CT, US
Lorren Stiles - Palm City FL, US
Vineet Sahasrabudhe - Hamden CT, US
Margaret A. MacIsaac - Woodbury CT, US
Assignee:
Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation - Stratford CT
International Classification:
G01C 23/00
US Classification:
340973, 340970, 701 14
Abstract:
A method for flying in a degraded visual environment comprising the steps of collecting environmental data, processing the data and fusing the data together into a combined input output. The output is fed into a head down display, head mounted or heads up display and, preferably to a fly-by-wire vertical take-off and landing capable vehicle wherein the fly-by-wire system makes automatic adjustments to the helicopter.

Integrated Hover Display With Augmented Approach To Hover Symbology Cueing For Degraded Visual Environmental Conditions

US Patent:
7091881, Aug 15, 2006
Filed:
Apr 21, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/111473
Inventors:
John H. Judge - Woodbury CT, US
John J. Occhiato - Derby CT, US
Lorren Stiles - Palm City FL, US
Vineet Sahasrabudhe - Hamden CT, US
Margaret A. MacIsaac - Woodbury CT, US
Assignee:
Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation - Stratford CT
International Classification:
G01C 21/00
US Classification:
340979, 340946, 340967, 340973, 340974, 701 14
Abstract:
A flight control system includes a primary flight display having a hover display which facilitates operations in DVE conditions. The hover display includes a radar altitude display, heading drift symbology and lateral drift symbology which assists pilots in the detection of drift, which is common in DVE situations and to provide the pilot with a salient cue pertinent to the approach to hover and landing.

Stabilized Approach To A Point In Degraded Visual Environment

US Patent:
8392037, Mar 5, 2013
Filed:
Aug 18, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/671736
Inventors:
Vineet Sahasrabudhe - Handen CT, US
Lorren Stiles - Pam City FL, US
Margaret A. Macisaac - Woodbury CT, US
John H. Judge - Woodbury CT, US
Alex Faynberg - Cheshire CT, US
Assignee:
Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation - Stratford CT
International Classification:
B64D 43/02, G06F 19/00
US Classification:
701 3, 701 10, 701 16, 244 1713
Abstract:
A flight control system includes a fly by wire system operable to provide predictive termination point symbology overlaid on a synthetic imagery displayed by a display system in response to a control system and a sensor system. A method to facilitate a VTOL aircraft approach to a terminal point includes integrating a flight director mode with a control system to provide a stabilized approach path to a termination point.
