N2 - An experimental low cost SD-display and navigation system is described which presents guidance information in a 3-dimensional format to the pilot. The visual information displayed to the pilot employs the command flight path and a predictor as central elements, together with an outside world image. For achieving the low cost goal, Commercial-off-the-Shelf components are used. The displayed information is generated by a slot-card PC. An appropriate computer software has been developed which is capable to produce the imagery in real-time with an adequate update rate. Precision navigation data which is required for accurately adjusting the displayed guidance information is derived from an integrated low cost navigation system. This navigation system consists of a differential positioning system and an inertial measurement unit. The low cost SD-display and navigation system will be installed on a two-seat Grob 109B aircraft which is operated by the Institute of Flight Mechanics and Flight Control of the Technische Universitat Miinchen as a research vehicle.
