VIRTUAL WINDOWS FOR AIRBORNE VEHICLES

摘要

A virtual window assembly for an airborne vehicle includes at least one camera configured to capture a panoramic and time-resolved image data stream from the view to the outside of the airborne vehicle, an image data processor coupled to the camera and configured to receive the captured image data stream and split the image data stream into a plurality of partial image data streams corresponding to different viewing angles of the panoramic image data stream, and a plurality of electronic displays mounted to an inside of a hull of the airborne vehicle, coupled to the image data processor and configured to receive partial image data streams. Each of the electronic displays is configured to display one of the partial image data streams so that the physical mounting location of the electronic displays in the airborne vehicle corresponds to the associated camera viewing angle of the displayed partial image data stream.
