Abstract

Aircraft-vision systems and methods for maintaining situational awareness and spatial orientation are described. In one aspect, a holographic image with visual cues is projected into a peripheral area—from the pilot's perspective—of an aircraft cockpit, such that visual cues stimulate the pilot's peripheral vision. These visual cues help the pilot to maintain spatial orientation in visually deficient flight conditions without increasing pilot workload.
