1,206,691. Film strip projectors. HUGHES AIRCRAFT CO. Feb.15, 1968 [March 27, 1967], No.7560/68. Heading G2A. [Also in Divisions G1; H4] A navigational aid system for use on an aircraft, ship or submarine comprises a projector 25 providing a chart display of a selected area on a screen 10, on which a symbol 20 indicates the position of the craft and another projector displays desired path indicators RS1, VD1, there being means controlling the symbol 20 and indicator RS1 so that their relative location represents a navigational error R and means controlling the indicator VD1 to keep a distance from the indicator RS1 which is a predetermined function of the error R. The indicator VD1 may take the form of a line 18 equal in length to a gap between two parts 14, 16 of a line forming the indicator RS1. A computer 45, Fig.2, on an aircraft is fed both prior to and during flight with the necessary information to preset or control (a) the indicators RS1, VD1 through a symbol generator 38 Figs.7-13 (not shown) (see specification ................) (b) synchro circuits 37, 41 for moving the chart display relative to the symbol 20 in accordance with X and Y co-ordinates from a resolver, Figs. 3-6 (not shown) and synchro circuit 127 for rotating the chart display through a prism 26 (c) synchro circuit 49 for setting a desired heading through a ring 43 and symbol 11 (d) synchro circuit 33 for controlling the symbol 20. The area for chart display on the screen 10 (by projection employing a lamp 24, film strip 27, Pechan prism 26 and focusing lenses 28, 30, 23) is selected by means of a high speed motor driving the film strip 27 to change the frames depicting different map sections corresponding to the areas, the motor being controlled automatically or manually with feedback to the computer 45. In a similar system, Figs. 14-19 (not shown), a suitably biased cathode ray tube is controlled by a symbol generator to provide symbols on its screen which are focused by a lens system and reflected from a semi-transparent mirror to combine with a chart projection passing through the mirror for display on a screen. |
