Abstract:
1. A set of equipment items for an aircraft comprising: a video transducer and at least two head-up display (HUD) devices, the video transducer having a line of sight and a field of vision defining a video image captured by the video transducer, each HUD device having a line of sight and a display field defining an image projected by the HUD device, the video transducer is fixed on a transducer support, in a position so that the transducer support makes a line of sight of the transducer support, which, when the video transducer is fixed on the transducer support, coincides with the line of sight of the video transducer, each HUD device is fixed on a HUD support, in a position so that the HUD support makes a line of sight of the HUD support, which, when a HUD device is fixed on the HUD support, coincides with the line of sight of the HUD device, wherein: the field of vision of the video transducer is at least equal to a union of the display fields of the HUD devices, augmented by a margin corresponding to offsets of the field of vision of the video transducer and of the display fields of the HUD devices, the offsets are generated when the set of equipment items are mounted in the aircraft, as a result of discrepancies of alignment between the lines of sight of the video transducer and HUD devices and a reference direction, which is the aircraft line of sight, determined by the structure of the aircraft, the video transducer is designed such that it can communicate with each HUD device and vice versa, at least one of the equipment items is configured to receive:
