Augmented reality for vehicle operations

Systems, methods, and computer products according to the principles of the present inventions may involve a training system for a pilot of an aircraft. The training system may include an aircraft sensor system affixed to the aircraft adapted to provide a location of the aircraft, including an altitude of the aircraft, speed of the aircraft, and directional attitude of the aircraft. It may further include a helmet position sensor system adapted to determine a location of a helmet within a cockpit of the aircraft and a viewing direction of a pilot wearing the helmet. The helmet may include a see-through computer display through which the pilot sees an environment outside of the aircraft with computer content overlaying the environment to create an augmented reality view of the environment for the pilot. A computer content presentation system may be adapted to present computer content to the see-through computer display at a virtual marker, generated by the computer content presentation system, representing a geospatial position of a training asset moving within a visual range of the pilot, such that the pilot sees the computer content from a perspective consistent with the aircraft's position, altitude, attitude, and the pilot's helmet position when the pilot's viewing direction is aligned with the virtual marker.

FLIGHT SIMULATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS
20260045174 · 2026-02-12 ·

A flight simulation system for enabling g-force training includes a seating system, a sensor arrangement, and a controller. The seating system is configured for accommodating a human occupant and for providing thereto physically simulated flight conditions corresponding to predetermined real flight conditions, the predetermined real flight conditions including g-forces, wherein the physically simulated flight conditions include application of non-g forces to the human occupant corresponding to the g-forces, and wherein the g-forces are considered sufficient to provide g-force induced physiological stress to the human occupant. The sensor arrangement is configured for providing real-time feedback data of predetermined physiological parameters of the human occupant, in operation of the flight simulation system with the human occupant accommodated in the seating system, wherein the predetermined physiological parameters are indicative of the g-force induced physiological stress. The controller is configured for controlling the seating system to provide the physically simulated flight conditions.

AUGMENTED REALITY FOR VEHICLE OPERATIONS

An augmented reality system, includes a head-mounted see-through optic adapted to present digital content viewable by a user and having a transparency that allows the user to see though to the surrounding environment, a non-visual tracking system adapted to identify and track objects in a surrounding environment that cannot be seen visually, a training simulation system adapted to present a virtual training object on a display on the non-visual tracking system and a virtual content presentation system adapted to present digital content in the optic when the distance between the optic and the virtual training object indicates the object is in visual range.
