1. A method for operating an avionics system comprising a headset and a head-up display (HUD) device, the method comprising:
- detecting an initial position-orientation of the headset when the HUD device is in a first state of operation;
detecting a predefined set of movements of the headset, the predefined set of movements of the headset beginning at the initial position-orientation;
in response to said detection of the predefined set of movements, switching the HUD device from the first state of operation to a second state of operation; and
causing the HUD device to remain in the second state of operation if the headset returns to the initial position-orientation.

8. A method for operating an avionics system comprising a headset and a head-up display (HUD) device, the method comprising:
-
defining first and second sets of movements of the headset; detecting an initial position-orientation of the headset when the HUD device is in a first state of operation; detecting the first set of movements of the headset, the first set of movements of the headset originating at the initial position-orientation; in response to said detection of the first set of movements, switching the HUD device from the first state of operation to a second state of operation; causing the HUD device to remain in the second state of operation if the headset returns to the initial position-orientation without undergoing the second set of movements; detecting the second set of movements of the headset; and in response to said detection of the second set of movements, switching the HUD device from the second state of operation to a third state of operation. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
