Abstract
Systems and techniques for providing an energy requirement determination and indication system to an aircraft. The systems and techniques may include battery pack(s), battery sensor(s) configured to detect battery data, processor(s) and memory. The memory may contain instructions that configure the processor(s) to receive the battery data from the battery sensor(s); determine energy data based on the battery data; determine, based on the energy data and the battery data, an energy threshold value of a category of flight; and generate a display comprising visual representations of the battery data and the energy threshold value.
Claims20
A system for energy requirement determination of an aircraft, the system comprising:
- at least one battery pack;
- at least one battery sensor, wherein the at least one battery sensor is communicatively connected to the at least one battery pack and configured to detect battery data;
- at least one processor;
- and
- a memory communicatively connected to the at least one processor, the memory containing instructions configuring the at least one processor to:
- receive the battery data from the at least one battery sensor;
- determine energy data based on the battery data;
- determine, based on the energy data and the battery data, an energy threshold value of a category of flight;
- and
- generate a display comprising visual representations of the battery data and the energy threshold value.
A method for energy requirement determination of an aircraft, the method comprising:
- detecting, by a battery sensor communicatively connected to a battery pack, battery data;
- receiving, by a processor, the battery data from the battery sensor;
- determining, by the processor, an energy data based on the battery data;
- determining, by the processor and based on the energy data and the battery data, an energy threshold value of a category of flight;
- and
- generating, by the processor, a display comprising visual representations of the battery data and the energy threshold value.
