Claims17
A system for automatic adjustment of an ejection system for an aircraft, the system comprising:
- the ejection system having a plurality of adjustable settings;
- an input device configured to receive user input;
- and
- a controller coupled to the ejection system and to the input device and configured to:
- determine an identifier of a user of the system based on the user input;
- retrieve specific settings of the user by accessing a database based on the identifier;
- and
- adjust at least one of the plurality of the adjustable settings of the ejection system based on the specific settings of the user retrieved from the database.
A method for automatic adjustment of an ejection system for an aircraft, the method comprising:
- receiving, by an input device, user input;
- and
- determining, by the controller, an identifier of a user of the ejection system based on the user input;
- retrieving, by the controller, specific settings of the user by accessing a database based on the identifier;
- and
- adjusting, by a controller, at least one of a plurality of adjustable settings of the ejection system based on the user input specific settings of the user retrieved from the database.
