Abstract
In an aspect, a system for displaying synoptic information is provided. A processor of the system may retrieve and/or receive operation data related to the use of a corresponding electric aircraft. Operation data may be displayed on a display of the system using one or more visual representations or audio presentations.
Claims20
A synoptic system of an electric aircraft, the system comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory communicatively connected to the processor and configured to contain instructions configuring the processor to:
- retrieve operation data, wherein the operation data comprises an angle of one or more propulsors of an electric aircraft during a transition between a hover state and fixed-wing flight state;
- and
- generate a visual representation of the operation data;
- a display communicatively connected to the processor and configured to display the visual representation of the operation data;
- a user interface communicatively connected to the processor and display that is configured to receive a user input, wherein the user input comprises manipulating the visual representation displayed on the display;
- and
- a haptic component configured to provide feedback to a user when the operation data deviates outside of a recommended range.
