Abstract: An air turbulence analysis system and method includes an air turbulence control unit that is configured to receive a position signal from an aircraft within an air space. The air turbulence control unit determines a location of air turbulence within the air space based on the position signal. In at least one embodiment, the position signal is an automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) signal.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for a machine and process that include a computer code specially programmed for creating a runway extension speed for an aircraft taking off. The process may include sensing current location, current acceleration, and current speed, for the aircraft during takeoff roll; receiving, in a ROTTOWIRE, the current speed and the current acceleration for the aircraft; creating in the ROTTOWIRE an actual speed profile; creating, using a specially coded program in the ROTTOWIRE and the current acceleration, the runway extension speed via determining, for a current location of the aircraft, a distance from a departure end of the runway and a terminating distance required to terminate the takeoff to a stop of the aircraft on the runway, a distance until the aircraft reaches a designated height; and when the terminating distance equals the distance from the departure end of the runway; and presenting the runway extension speed.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided. The apparatus determines a plurality of runway exits reachable by the aircraft, and applied braking force of the aircraft to land at respective ones of the plurality of runway exits and predicts taxi-in times of the aircraft to land at respective ones of the plurality of runway exits. The apparatus also predicts maintenance costs of the aircraft to land at respective ones of the plurality of runway exits based on the applied braking force and predicts overall costs of the aircraft to land at respective ones of the plurality of runway exits based on the taxi-in times and the maintenance costs. The apparatus further determines the runway exit among the plurality of runway exits, the runway exit having a minimal overall cost among the overall costs and presents a recommendation of the runway exit for landing the aircraft to a user.

Abstract: Method, apparatus, and computer program product for providing a cause of a scent and/or sound detected during operation of a vehicle are provided. In the event a vehicle operator hears a sound or smells a scent while operating a vehicle, a microphone can sample the sound and/or an electronic nose can sample the scent. A sound and/or scent profile is generated from the sampled sound and/or sampled scent. The generated sound and/or scent profile are compared to known sound and/or scent profiles stored in a data structure. In the event the generated sound and/or scent profile matches a known sound and/or scent profile, the data structure is checked for correspondences between the matched, known sound and/or scent profile and a cause of the sound and/or scent. In the event a correspondence to a cause exists, then the cause is output to a user to identify the cause of the sound and/or scent.
