Abstract

This paper describes our on-going efforts to develop an Augmented Reality system for enhanced pilot situational awareness in airport runways and taxiways. The system consists of a sensing component based on computer vision and an information component based on high-fidelity graphic model databases. Vision algorithms are used for a variety of guidance and warning tasks. A necessary requirement is for vision algorithms to have a real-time response.
