CA 2557405

The invention relates to optoelectronic taxi-assistance devices for aircraft, comprising a head-up display which can be used to display information in the pilot's field of vision. The invention is suitable for large civil aircraft of the Boeing 747 or Airbus A380 type. The invention is designed to display secure symbologies in the head-up display and, in this way, to improve aircraft safety and manoeuvrability significantly during taxiing. The aforementioned symbologies (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 241, 242, 243, 250 and 251) essentially relate to the position of the aircraft on the taxiway and to the turning and stopping manoeuvres to be performed by the pilot. Said symbologies are particularly useful in poor visibility conditions.

Le domaine de l'invention est celui des dispositifs optoélectroniques d'aide au roulage pour aéronef, comportant un collimateur dit Tête Haute permettant la présentation d'informations dans le champ visuel du pilote. Elle s'applique notamment aux aéronefs civils de grande taille de type Boeing 747 ou Airbus A380. L'objet de l'invention est de proposer d'afficher dans le collimateur des symbologies sécurisées permettant d'améliorer sensiblement la sécurité et la manoeuvrabilité des aéronefs pendant la phase de roulage. Ces symbologies (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 241, 242, 243, 250 et 251) concernent essentiellement la position de l'aéronef sur la voie de circulation et les manoeuvres de virage et d'arrêt à effectuer par le pilote. Elles sont particulièrement utiles en cas de visibilité dégradée.
