Mobile Computing Platform
The Mobile Computer Platform (MCP) is a Tablet PC with a 7" high-resolution LCD display. This unit draws power from the aircraft's power supply and includes rechargeable batteries for wireless operation in the event of power loss. The unit can be mounted on the yoke or in any number of locations within the pilot’s field of view.
Inertial Navigation Unit
The INU can be mounted on any level surface inside the aircraft such as under the passenger seat. The GPS-enabled Inertial Navigation Unit (INU) is a selfcontained 3D solid-state inertial navigation sensor system with:
Situational awareness is essential to the safety of IFR navigation, and today’s electronic flight bag (EFB) solutions are quickly becoming common place in the modern cockpit. The AV8OR Vision 3D System is equipped with built-in 3D Synthetic Vision and IFR approach plates, with optional satellite weather and 3D traffic. With the addition of Synthetic Vision, pilots now have a comprehensive cockpit tool to reduce pilot workload and provide a backup to
certified navigation systems.
AV8OR Vision 3D system has been developed by pilots, for pilots, to deliver an advanced, cost-effective Synthetic Vision solution to increase situational awareness and improve flight safety.
Synthetic Vision Technology
Flying in instrument conditions requires skill and constant proficiency training. One of the most demanding tasks for the pilot is maintaining both positional and situational awareness. Synthetic vision technology is poised to revolutionize IFR flight, dramatically reduce pilot workload and increase flight safety. By combining both positional and situational data, the pilot can be presented with a realistic and accurate representation of the view through the aircraft windshield. The key is that the synthetic view is unaffected by the conditions of the world outside. It may be dark and raining outside, but it’s always VFR on the Synthetic Vision display.
Synthetic Vision Systems (SVS) integrate data from terrain databases, GPS positional data and solid-state gyroscopic attitude sensors, presenting graphical 3D representations on high-resolution monitors. The SVS shows a three-dimensional, realistic representation of the landscape as if on a clear day – in any weather and at any time of day or night. Even though the aircraft may be miles out in solid IMC, the pilot can clearly “see” the runway on the SVS.
A Complete Cockpit Information System
The AV8OR Vision 3D system is an affordable, intuitive, cockpit information solution that provides ultimate situational awareness. During flight, AV8OR Vision 3D generates and displays dynamic, realistic, synthetic 3D imagery, showing a cockpit-like view regardless of external conditions. You can use it to plan your route, download weather forecasts, save your flight plan, and more.

Integrated Technologies
WxWorx XM® Satellite Weather Unit
The XM Satellite Weather Unit provides near real-time NEXRAD weather data, TAFs, METARS, TFRs, and NOTAM information, which are essential to improving the pilot’s decision-making. The receiver can be integrated with the AV8OR Vision 3D system via USB.
Depending on XM weather data subscription, the following information
is available:
Zaon XRX PCAS™ Traffic Detection
The Zaon XRX Portable Collision Avoidance System (PCAS) is the world’s first and only standalone portable device to sense aircraft direction from within the cockpit. By integrating data from XRX, AV8OR Vision 3D displays 2D quadrant bearing, distance, and altitude information, as well as the world’s first portable 3D Traffic View. The receiver can be integrated with the AV8OR Vision 3D system via USB.
