Abstract
A method includes receiving a stream of synthetic images from a synthetic vision system and receiving a stream of sensor images from at least one sensor. The method also includes performing, by a processing array including a plurality of parallel processing elements, one or more fusion operations on a particular synthetic image of the stream of the synthetic images and one or more particular sensor images of the stream of the sensor images. Upon performing one or more fusion operations on the particular synthetic image of the stream of the synthetic images and the one or more particular sensor images of the stream of sensor images, the method further includes outputting a combined image to a display for presentation to a user.
