Abstract: An integrated multifunction dynamic display system and method for an air vehicle that provides an interactive user experience. The system is based around an array of multifunction display nodes that are disposed throughout the air vehicle. The multifunction display nodes are connected through a databus or network such that the display nodes can operate individually or in combination to create a desired interactive experience. The nodes can include interior lighting, exterior lighting, interior displays, exterior displays, and windows. The multifunction dynamic display system can be used to control or otherwise provide interior lighting or displays, loading/unloading instruction, inflight entertainment or information, emergency notification and instruction, augmented reality, external lighting and displays. In addition, the multifunction dynamic display can be configured for each passenger.

Abstract: An integrated multimode thermal energy transfer system, method and apparatus for full-scale clean fuel electric-powered multirotor aircraft with automatic on-board-capability to provide sensor-based temperature awareness and adjustment to critical components and zones of the aircraft. Automatic computer monitoring, including by a programmed triple-redundant digital autopilot computer, controls each motor-controller and motor to produce pitch, bank, yaw and elevation, while simultaneously measuring, calculating, and adjusting temperature and heat transfer of aircraft components and zones, to protect critical components from exceeding operating parameters and to provide a safe, comfortable environment for occupants during flight. By using the results of the measurements to inform computer monitoring, the methods and systems can use byproducts including thermal energy disparities and differentials related to both battery systems and power generating systems to both add and remove heat from different aircraft zones to improve aircraft function, comfort, and efficiency.

Abstract: Methods and systems for a full-scale vertical takeoff and landing manned or unmanned aircraft, having an all-electric, low-emission or zero-emission lift and propulsion system, an integrated ‘highway in the sky’ avionics system for navigation and guidance, a tablet-based motion command, or mission planning system to provide the operator with drive-by-wire style direction control, and automatic on-board-capability to provide traffic awareness, weather display and collision avoidance. Automatic computer monitoring by a programmed triple-redundant digital autopilot computer controls each motor-controller and motor to produce pitch, bank, yaw and elevation, while simultaneously restricting the flight regime that the pilot can command, to protect the pilot from inadvertent potentially harmful acts that might lead to loss of control or loss of vehicle stability. By using the results of the state measurements to inform motor control commands, the methods and systems contribute to the operational simplicity, reliability and safety of the vehicle.
