Stereo display for position sensing systems
First Claim
1. A method for display of radar data comprising:
- (a) performing a first radar scan to obtain, for at least one object, a first range reading, a first azimuth reading, and a first altitude reading;
(b) performing a second radar scan to obtain, for the at least one object, a second range reading, a second azimuth reading, and a second altitude reading;
(c) computing a position and travel direction of the at least one object within a predetermined cylindrical volume, according to readings from the first and second radar scans;
(d) assigning an icon to the at least one object;
(e) determining at least a first reference point for display of the predetermined cylindrical volume; and
(f) displaying the icon, within the predetermined cylindrical volume, in stereoscopic form.

Abstract
A method for display of radar data includes performing a first radar scan to obtain, for at least one object (24), a first range reading, a first azimuth reading, and a first altitude reading. A second radar scan is then performed to obtain, for the at least one object (24), a second range reading, a second azimuth reading, and a second altitude reading. Position and travel direction of the at least one object (24) are computed within a predetermined cylindrical volume (20), according to readings from the first and second radar scans. An icon (34) is assigned to the at least one object (24). A reference point (R) is determined for the predetermined cylindrical volume. The icon (34) is then displayed within the predetermined cylindrical volume (20) in stereoscopic form.
