Device for servoing graphic representations of the air environment
First Claim
1. A device for presenting graphical representations of an aerial environment for an aircraft, said device comprising:
- a processor;
a first display screen in communication with the processor;
a memory in communication with the processor, the memory adapted to store;
a series of instructions executable by the processor to periodically generate and store environmental data in a first time interval;
a series of instructions executable by the processor to calculate a heading of the aircraft relative to North and a geo-referenced current position of the aircraft, wherein the heading and the geo-referenced current position are periodically generated during a second time interval that is less than the first time interval; and
a series of instructions executable by the processor to generate an image of a predetermined subset of the environmental data that is periodically refreshed and displayed on the first display interval;
wherein the image of the predetermined subset of the environmental data periodically displayed on the first display screen is positioned and oriented graphically on the first display screen according to a last calculated heading and a last calculated geo-referenced position.

Abstract
Device for servoing graphical representations of the aerial environment for aircraft, an avionics the device including a display, a computer and memory in communication with the computer, the memory storing means for generating images of environmental data, said data being servoed by the first calculation resource and periodically refreshed in a first time interval. The device comprises a calculation resource providing an angle of heading of the aircraft relative to North and its geo-referenced current position, these data being servoed, periodically, in real time in a second time interval. The representation of a part of the environmental data on the viewing screen of the device is servoed and refreshed during the second time interval and positioned and oriented graphically, by the display, according to the last current angle of the position of the aircraft calculated and of the last geo-referenced current position.
