Märksõnad:
Display systems are the vital indicators that monitor the various avionics, environmental, and electronic systems that keep aircraft in the air. Aircraft Display Systems introduces the reader to the means by which information is presented to the crew, enabling them to carry out their tasks safely and successfully. Aircraft Display Systems provides an assessment of the current and potential future information needs in civil and military flight decks. It also offers the reader an appreciation of the technologies available to the display engineer in order to provide solutions that meet those needs. This volume will be an invaluable source of information to all those involved in aircraft design, build, testing, and investigation.
