System and method for 3d display of dynamic objects on synthetic vision system in cockpit display system

A method for displaying objects in the travel path of an aerial vehicle, the method comprising:

• obtaining object data regarding sensed objects around the travel path of the aerial vehicle from one or more aerial vehicle sensors;
• determining if the sensed objects are within a field of view of a three-dimensional view in front of the aerial vehicle displayed on a display screen in the aerial vehicle;
• selecting, for each graphical object representing an object within the field of view of the three-dimensional view, a graphical object display size for the object, wherein the display size of an object is determined based on a non-linear projection per distance between the object and the view point that is scaled based on a continuous, non-linear scaling function, which causes the object to be displayed smaller at certain distances and larger at other distances than it would if only linear scaling were applied;
• and
• causing the display on the display screen of the one or more graphical objects with the selected display size.

A method for displaying objects in the travel path of an aerial vehicle, the method comprising:

• obtaining object data regarding a calculated virtual object around the travel path of the aerial vehicle from one or more aerial vehicle sensors;
• determining if the calculated virtual object is within a field of view of a three-dimensional view in front of the aerial vehicle displayed on a display screen in the aerial vehicle;
• selecting, for a graphical object representing the calculated virtual object within the field of view of the three-dimensional view, a graphical object display size for the object, wherein the display size of an object is determined based on a non-linear projection per distance between the object and the view point that is scaled based on a continuous, non-linear scaling function, which causes the object to be displayed smaller at certain distances and larger at other distances than it would if only linear scaling were applied;
• and
• causing the display on the display screen of the graphical object with the selected display size.
