Aero-TV: Rockwell Collins Update -- Ascending to Greater Pilot Convenience

Rockwell Collins Rolls Out The Highest-Tech For The Bombardier Globals

We're always on the lookout for new systems that will help reduce the cockpit workload, and Rockwell Collins seems to have come up with one in its latest Pro Line Fusion avionics suite.

Pro Line Fusion, which provides an integrated flight deck to ensure interoperability between systems, will debut on the Bombardier Global family. Pro Line Fusion will feature high resolution 15-inch diagonal LCD displays working in concert with Head-Up Guidance Systems (HGS), graphical flight planning, synthetic and enhanced vision and Rockwell Collins' award-winning MultiScan™ Hazard Detection system. Voice recognition technology will be a future capability of the system.

Rockwell Collins told ANN its Pro Line Fusion solution provides extensive situational awareness, while offering information enabled capabilities and flexible, adaptable integration. Data is displayed on 15-inch high-resolution displays. The advanced human machine interface allows for high speed display interfaces that facilitate point-and-click access to flight planning, aircraft performance monitoring and hazard avoidance.

With Synthetic-Enhanced Vision on the head-down displays, Pro Line Fusion operators are equipped for situational awareness in low visibility conditions and unfamiliar territory. Synthetic-Enhanced Vision technology integrates synthetically generated scenes with real-time enhanced vision imagery allowing flight crews to operate with improved situational awareness and safety.

Pro Line Fusion incorporates Rockwell Collins' Head-Up Guidance System, which presents critical flight information in the pilot's forward field of view. Aircraft flight path, attitude symbols, and a wire frame presentation of synthetic vision overlay the outside scene enhancing situational awareness, improving energy management, and increasing touchdown precision.

The system is designed to accommodate technologies for current and future airspace requirements such as Controller Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC), Required Navigation Performance (RNP) navigation and self-separation. The company says the system is scaleable from single pilot to ultra-long range aircraft.
