Abstract

A mission system, able to be fixed in a carrier, comprises at least a display device displaying at least mission data, a processing device allowing the execution of applications, and an interfacing with said display device and with inputting device, the mission system furthermore comprising a handle disposed in proximity to the display device so that an operator can via at least one of his hands employ the inputting means while clasping the mission system via said gripping means.

Claims (16)

1. A mission system configured to be fixed in a vehicle, comprising:

a display device displaying at least mission data,

device for inputting instructions by an operator,

processing device allowing the execution of applications and an interfacing with said display device and with the inputting device,

the mission system further comprising a fastening device configured to join the mission system together with the vehicle structure in a given position, and gripping means arranged with respect to the display device such that when the mission system is fastened to the vehicle structure, the operator can operate the inputting device with at least one of his hands while holding on to the vehicle structure by grasping said gripping means.

2. The mission system as claimed in claim 1 , in which the display device comprises at least one touchscreen, said inputting device comprising at least interaction objects displayed on the touchscreen, the interaction objects being disposed on the display area offered by the display device so as to be able to be actuated by the thumbs of the operator when the latter is grasping said handle.

3. The mission system as claimed in claim 2 , in which said interaction objects are virtual buttons.

4. The mission system as claimed in claim 2 , in which said interaction objects are disposed substantially along circular arcs centered on the bases of the thumbs of the operator when the latter is grasping said handle .

5. The mission system as claimed in claim 1 , in which said inputting device comprises at least physical interaction devices disposed substantially at the rear of the display device, the physical interaction devices being disposed so as to be able to be actuated by all or some of the operator's fingers other than the thumb, of one or both of his hands.

6. The mission system as claimed in claim 5 , in which the physical interaction devices are buttons.

7. The mission system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a console supporting said display device, said handle being formed at the level of at least one lateral edge of the display device, the latter being designed in such a way that at least part of its lateral edges overhangs the console.

8. The mission system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a console supporting said display device, said handle being formed by recesses made in the lateral rims of the console.

9. The mission system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a support frame supporting at least said display device.

10. The mission system as claimed in claim 9 , in which the support frame comprises arm rests disposed on the support frame, substantially at the base of the display device and in alignment with the handle.

11. The mission system as claimed in claim 9 , in which the support frame is formed by a substantially horizontal tablet, the display device being formed by a first screen in contact with the tablet at its lower edge and inclined by a first angle with respect to a horizontal plane, and a second screen whose lower edge is in contact with the upper edge of said first screen, and inclined by a second angle with respect to the horizontal plane.

12. The mission system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising positioning device configured to orient the inclination of said at least one screen forming the display device.
