A mechanical controller provides four-axis control of a vehicle's position and movement. For example, the controller provides control of a vehicle's operations through a lateral axis, longitudinal axis, directional axis, and a grip axis (e.g., operating a thumbwheel of the mechanical controller that provides additional control inputs to the vehicle). The mechanical controller can provide independent force feel mechanisms in each of the lateral, longitudinal, and directional axes of movement. Additionally, the mechanical controller may provide a redundant force feel mechanism (e.g., for increased safety). For example, redundant springs and dampers may be incorporated in each axis's force feel mechanism. The mechanical controller may include a plunger and spring assembly to provide a force feel mechanism in the lateral and longitudinal axes. In addition to this spring force, surfaces of a contact region between the plunger and a plunger actuating plate may be shaped to produce force feel characteristics.

A vehicle control and interface system described herein assists an operator of an aerial vehicle with the operation of an aerial vehicle, including automated control of the aerial vehicle during flight. The system can generate a graphical user interface (GUI) on which lateral guidance and vertical guidance initiation elements are displayed. The system can conditionally disable the vertical guidance initiation element from operator interaction until at least the operator interacts with the lateral guidance initiation element (e g., to prevent an undesirable roll maneuver during descent). If the operator interacts with the vertical guidance initiation element before engaging lateral guidance, the aerial vehicle may maintain a current altitude rather than climb or descend according to a target vertical guidance route. In this way, the GUI reformats elements based on the operational state of the aerial vehicle and reduces a risk of operational error.

DYNAMIC FLIGHT ENVELOPE PROTECTION AND DEGRADED FLIGHT STATE OPERATIONS IN A VEHICLE CONTROL AND INTERFACE SYSTEM
A vehicle control and interface system configured to provide dynamic flight envelope protection of an aerial vehicle is described. In particular, the system dynamically calculates allowable trajectory limits for each axis of control through all phases of flight of an aerial vehicle and provides a visualization of the calculated limits on a graphical user interface. During normal operation, the system does not allow the operator to exceed the calculated limits. Responsive to receiving specified user input to modify vehicle navigation, however, the system causes the aircraft to enter an extended envelope by degrading vehicle parameters according to a hierarchy. Moreover, the system is configured to allow the vehicle to operate in a degraded flight state during a prolonged loss of a sensor signal by setting an adjustable hover trim position of each inceptor device and allowing an operator to control horizontal acceleration of the vehicle.

IDENTIFYING AND REMOVING VEHICLE CONFLICT IN VEHICLE NETWORK
A system manages a set of vehicles in a network. Vehicles in the set are assigned to spatiotemporal regions and instructed to remain within perimeters of the spatiotemporal regions as the vehicles travel. The spatiotemporal regions define three-dimensional perimeters that move in time along paths from departure sites to an arrival sites. The system may, based on the location of a first aircraft assigned to a first spatiotemporal region relative to the perimeter of the first spatiotemporal region, determine a modification to the first spatiotemporal region so the first vehicle can remain within the perimeter of the first spatiotemporal region. The system may identify a conflict between the modification and a second spatiotemporal region. The system may remove the conflict by modifying at least one of: the first spatiotemporal region or the second spatiotemporal region.
A universal vehicle control router for fly-by-wire aircraft may include multiple vehicle control computers, such as flight control computers. Each flight control computer may be part of an independent channel that provides instructions to multiple actuators to control multiple vehicle components. Each channel is a distinct pathway capable of delivering a system function, such as moving an actuator. Each flight control computer may include a fully analyzable and testable voter (FAT voter). In the event of a failure to one of the flight control computers, the FAT voters may cause the failing flight control computer to be ignored or shut off power. Each flight control computer may comprise a backup battery. In the event of a power disruption from the primary power source, such as a generator and primary battery, the backup battery may power the flight control computer and all actuators.

A vehicle control and interface system described herein assists an operator of an aerial vehicle with the operation of an aerial vehicle, including preparing for flight. A vehicle control and interface system partially or fully automates a procedure for preparing an aerial vehicle for flight, which is referred to herein as engine startup. The engine startup can include safety and accuracy verifications before and after starting an aerial vehicle's engine. The system can check engine parameters (e.g., turbine rotational speeds, engine torque, engine oil pressure), cabin parameters (e.g., a status of seat belts or a current weight of passengers and cargo within the cabin), fuel load, an area around the aerial vehicle (e.g., using cameras to determine that the area is clear of objects before takeoff), any suitable measurement that impacts safe aerial vehicle operations, or a combination thereof.
A vehicle control and interface system described herein assists an operator of an aerial vehicle with the operation of an aerial vehicle, including tailoring the positioning of aerial vehicle interfaces for a given pilot. A movable control interface of the system adapts aerial vehicle operation to varying physical features of operators by enabling the operator to choose a position of a touch screen interface (e.g., a height of the screen, distance in front of the pilot's seat, etc.) that is adjustable using a mechanical arm. The movable control interface can move a touch screen interface from a stowed position (e.g., away from a pilot seat and proximal to a dashboard towards the front of the cockpit) to an in-flight position (e.g., towards the pilot seat in a position that encourages an ergonomic position of the operator to reach the touch screen interface without straining their shoulder).

A vehicle control and interface system described herein assists an operator of an aerial vehicle with the operation of an aerial vehicle, including navigating during flight. The system can generate a graphical user interface (GUI) through which an operator can specify navigation instructions (e.g., using finger gestures on a touch screen interface). In one example of controlling aerial vehicle navigation using a finger gesture, an operator swipes three fingers simultaneously upwards on a touchpad to increase the vertical speed of the aerial vehicle. The system can update the GUI to show, via a digital avatar of the aerial vehicle, the changing orientation of the aerial vehicle in substantially real time. The GUI may depict representations of the aerial vehicle's environment absent of objects at the surface of the earth or natural features at the earth's surface (e.g., rivers, canyons, mountains, etc.) to reduce a mental strain taken by an operator when using the GUI.

Electro-mechanical actuator with integrated fail-operational mechanism
Some embodiments relate to an electro-mechanical actuator that includes a screw, structurally segregated (split) housings, first and second nuts coupled to the screw, a sensor assembly, a plurality of motors, and a controller. The first nut is coupled to a first mounting point, and the second nut is coupled to a second mounting point. The sensor assembly may generate signals indicative of (e.g., relative) positions of left and right units of the actuator or positions of the first nut and the second nut on the screw. The controller controls the motors based on the signals generated by the sensor assembly. The motors may rotate each nut about a screw axis of the screw. This rotation results in one or both nuts moving along the screw. Movement between the first nut and the second nut along the screw adjusts a distance between the first mounting point and the second mounting point.

A mechanical controller provides four-axis control of a vehicle's position and movement. For example, the controller provides control of a vehicle's operations through a lateral axis, longitudinal axis, directional axis, and a grip axis (e.g., operating a thumbwheel of the mechanical controller that provides additional control inputs to the vehicle). The mechanical controller can provide independent force feel mechanisms in each of the lateral, longitudinal, and directional axes of movement. Additionally, the mechanical controller may provide a redundant force feel mechanism (e.g., for increased safety). For example, redundant springs and dampers may be incorporated in each axis's force feel mechanism. The mechanical controller may include a plunger and spring assembly to provide a force feel mechanism in the lateral and longitudinal axes. In addition to this spring force, surfaces of a contact region between the plunger and a plunger actuating plate may be shaped to produce force feel characteristics.

Controlling aircraft traffic in an aerial network is described. A controller system identifies a departure site, an arrival site, a departure time interval, and an arrival time interval. Based on the on the departure site, the arrival site, and the departure time interval, the controller system generates a spatiotemporal region. A spatiotemporal region defines a three-dimensional perimeter that moves in time along a flightpath from the departure site to the arrival site. An aircraft is assigned to the spatiotemporal region and instructed to remain within perimeter of the spatiotemporal region as the aircraft travels from the departure site to the arrival site. The controller system monitors locations of the aircraft over time relative to the perimeter of the spatiotemporal region. If the aircraft deviates from the spatiotemporal region, the controller may transmit control instructions to the aircraft to return to the spatiotemporal region.
A landing site selection system selects landing sites for unplanned landings for small aircraft. The landing site selection system may generate a landing site database comprising parameters for landing sites. The landing sites may be any location where an aircraft may potentially land.

Controlling aircraft traffic in an aerial network is described. A controller system identifies a departure site, an arrival site, a departure time interval, and an arrival time interval. Based on the on the departure site, the arrival site, and the departure time interval, the controller system generates a spatiotemporal region. A spatiotemporal region defines a three-dimensional perimeter that moves in time along a flightpath from the departure site to the arrival site. An aircraft is assigned to the spatiotemporal region and instructed to remain within perimeter of the spatiotemporal region as the aircraft travels from the departure site to the arrival site. The controller system monitors locations of the aircraft over time relative to the perimeter of the spatiotemporal region. If the aircraft deviates from the spatiotemporal region, the controller may transmit control instructions to the aircraft to return to the spatiotemporal region.
