Haptic feedback for realtime trajectory constraints
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for receiving feedback in a flight plan of a vehicle, comprising:
- a haptic-enabled device comprising a crew seat with an inceptor mounted thereto; and
a processor with memory having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the system to;
receive signals indicative of the flight plan for the vehicle;
receive deviation signals indicative of a proposed deviation in a trajectory for the flight plan; and
transmit signals to the haptic-enabled device representing trajectory constraints in the proposed deviation in response to the receiving of the deviation signals, wherein the trajectory constraints include soft constraints including at least one of fuel efficiency and time for a mission.
