     At a high level, aspects of the present disclosure are directed to an aircraft with a visual system. In an embodiment, this disclosure includes an aircraft configured to include a fuselage and a plurality of flight components attached to the fuselage. Aspects of the present disclosure include at least an exterior visual device to provide views of the exterior environment of the aircraft. Aspects of the present disclosure include at least a computing device configured to receive an input from the visual device and display it for the pilot. Exemplary embodiments illustrating aspects of the present disclosure are described below in the context of several specific examples. 
     Referring now to  FIG.  1   , an exemplary embodiment of an aircraft  100  including a system for a visual system is illustrated. In an embodiment, aircraft  100  is an electric aircraft. As used in this disclosure an “aircraft” is any vehicle that may fly by gaining support from the air. As a non-limiting example, aircraft may include airplanes, helicopters, commercial and/or recreational aircrafts, instrument flight aircrafts, drones, electric aircrafts, airliners, rotorcrafts, vertical takeoff and landing aircrafts, jets, airships, blimps, gliders, paramotors, and the like. Aircraft  100  may include an electrically powered aircraft. In embodiments, electrically powered aircraft may be an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. Electric aircraft may be capable of rotor-based cruising flight, rotor-based takeoff, rotor-based landing, fixed-wing cruising flight, airplane-style takeoff, airplane-style landing, and/or any combination thereof. Electric aircraft may include one or more manned and/or unmanned aircrafts. Electric aircraft may include one or more all-electric short takeoff and landing (eSTOL) aircrafts. For example, and without limitation, eSTOL aircrafts may accelerate plane to a flight speed on takeoff and decelerate plane after landing. In an embodiment, and without limitation, electric aircraft may be configured with an electric propulsion assembly. Electric propulsion assembly may include any electric propulsion assembly as described in U.S. Nonprovisional application Ser. No. 16/603,225, filed on Dec. 4, 2019, and entitled “AN INTEGRATED ELECTRIC PROPULSION ASSEMBLY,” the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference. 
     Still referring to  FIG.  1   , aircraft  100 , may include a fuselage  104 , a flight component  108  (or one or more flight components  108 ), a computing device  112 , an exterior visual device  116 , and pilot display  120 . Both exterior visual device  116  and pilot display  120  are described further herein with reference to  FIG.  2   . 
     As used in this disclosure, a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft is an aircraft that can hover, take off, and land vertically. An eVTOL, as used in this disclosure, is an electrically powered aircraft typically using an energy source, of a plurality of energy sources to power aircraft. To optimize the power and energy necessary to propel aircraft  100 , eVTOL may be capable of rotor-based cruising flight, rotor-based takeoff, rotor-based landing, fixed-wing cruising flight, airplane-style takeoff, airplane style landing, and/or any combination thereof. Rotor-based flight, as described herein, is where the aircraft generates lift and propulsion by way of one or more powered rotors or blades coupled with an engine, such as a “quad-copter,” multi-rotor helicopter, or other vehicle that maintains its lift primarily using downward thrusting propulsors. “Fixed-wing flight”, as described herein, is where the aircraft is capable of flight using wings and/or foils that generate lift caused by the aircraft&#39;s forward airspeed and the shape of the wings and/or foils, such as airplane-style flight. 
     Still referring to  FIG.  1   , as used in this disclosure a “fuselage” is a main body of an aircraft, or in other words, the entirety of the aircraft except for a cockpit, nose, wings, empennage, nacelles, any and all control surfaces, and generally contains an aircraft&#39;s payload. Fuselage  104  may include structural elements that physically support a shape and structure of an aircraft. Structural elements may take a plurality of forms, alone or in combination with other types. Structural elements may vary depending on a construction type of aircraft such as without limitation a fuselage  104 . Fuselage  104  may comprise a truss structure. A truss structure may be used with a lightweight aircraft and comprises welded steel tube trusses. A “truss,” as used in this disclosure, is an assembly of beams that create a rigid structure, often in combinations of triangles to create three-dimensional shapes. A truss structure may alternatively comprise wood construction in place of steel tubes, or a combination thereof. In embodiments, structural elements may comprise steel tubes and/or wood beams. In an embodiment, and without limitation, structural elements may include an aircraft skin. Aircraft skin may be layered over the body shape constructed by trusses. Aircraft skin may comprise a plurality of materials such as plywood sheets, aluminum, fiberglass, and/or carbon fiber, the latter of which will be addressed in greater detail later herein. 
     In embodiments, and with continued reference to  FIG.  1   , aircraft fuselage  104  may include and/or be constructed using geodesic construction. Geodesic structural elements may include stringers wound about formers (which may be alternatively called station frames) in opposing spiral directions. A “stringer,” as used in this disclosure, is a general structural element that may include a long, thin, and rigid strip of metal or wood that is mechanically coupled to and spans a distance from, station frame to station frame to create an internal skeleton on which to mechanically couple aircraft skin. A former (or station frame) may include a rigid structural element that is disposed along a length of an interior of aircraft fuselage  104  orthogonal to a longitudinal (nose to tail) axis of the aircraft and may form a general shape of fuselage  104 . A former may include differing cross-sectional shapes at differing locations along fuselage  104 , as the former is the structural element that informs the overall shape of a fuselage  104  curvature. In embodiments, aircraft skin may be anchored to formers and strings such that the outer mold line of a volume encapsulated by formers and stringers comprises the same shape as aircraft  100  when installed. In other words, former(s) may form a fuselage&#39;s ribs, and the stringers may form the interstitials between such ribs. The spiral orientation of stringers about formers may provide uniform robustness at any point on an aircraft fuselage such that if a portion sustains damage, another portion may remain largely unaffected. Aircraft skin may be attached to underlying stringers and formers and may interact with a fluid, such as air, to generate lift and perform maneuvers. 
     In an embodiment, and still referring to  FIG.  1   , fuselage  104  may include and/or be constructed using monocoque construction. Monocoque construction may include a primary structure that forms a shell (or skin in an aircraft&#39;s case) and supports physical loads. Monocoque fuselages are fuselages in which the aircraft skin or shell is also the primary structure. In monocoque construction aircraft skin would support tensile and compressive loads within itself and true monocoque aircraft can be further characterized by the absence of internal structural elements. Aircraft skin in this construction method is rigid and can sustain its shape with no structural assistance form underlying skeleton-like elements. Monocoque fuselage may comprise aircraft skin made from plywood layered in varying grain directions, epoxy-impregnated fiberglass, carbon fiber, or any combination thereof. 
     According to embodiments, and further referring to  FIG.  1   , fuselage  104  may include a semi-monocoque construction. Semi-monocoque construction, as used herein, is a partial monocoque construction, wherein a monocoque construction is describe above detail. In semi-monocoque construction, aircraft fuselage  104  may derive some structural support from stressed aircraft skin and some structural support from underlying frame structure made of structural elements. Formers or station frames can be seen running transverse to the long axis of fuselage  104  with circular cutouts which are generally used in real-world manufacturing for weight savings and for the routing of electrical harnesses and other modern on-board systems. In a semi-monocoque construction, stringers are thin, long strips of material that run parallel to fuselage&#39;s long axis. Stringers may be mechanically coupled to formers permanently, such as with rivets. Aircraft skin may be mechanically coupled to stringers and formers permanently, such as by rivets as well. A person of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, that there are numerous methods for mechanical fastening of components like screws, nails, dowels, pins, anchors, adhesives like glue or epoxy, or bolts and nuts, to name a few. A subset of fuselage under the umbrella of semi-monocoque construction includes unibody vehicles. Unibody, which is short for “unitized body” or alternatively “unitary construction”, vehicles are characterized by a construction in which the body, floor plan, and chassis form a single structure. In the aircraft world, unibody may be characterized by internal structural elements like formers and stringers being constructed in one piece, integral to the aircraft skin as well as any floor construction like a deck. 
     Still referring to  FIG.  1   , stringers and formers, which may account for the bulk of an aircraft structure excluding monocoque construction, may be arranged in a plurality of orientations depending on aircraft operation and materials. Stringers may be arranged to carry axial (tensile or compressive), shear, bending or torsion forces throughout their overall structure. Due to their coupling to aircraft skin, aerodynamic forces exerted on aircraft skin will be transferred to stringers. A location of said stringers greatly informs the type of forces and loads applied to each and every stringer, all of which may be handled by material selection, cross-sectional area, and mechanical coupling methods of each member. A similar assessment may be made for formers. In general, formers may be significantly larger in cross-sectional area and thickness, depending on location, than stringers. Both stringers and formers may comprise aluminum, aluminum alloys, graphite epoxy composite, steel alloys, titanium, or an undisclosed material alone or in combination. 
     In an embodiment, and still referring to  FIG.  1   , stressed skin, when used in semi-monocoque construction is the concept where the skin of an aircraft bears partial, yet significant, load in an overall structural hierarchy. In other words, an internal structure, whether it be a frame of welded tubes, formers and stringers, or some combination, may not be sufficiently strong enough by design to bear all loads. The concept of stressed skin may be applied in monocoque and semi-monocoque construction methods of fuselage  104 . Monocoque comprises only structural skin, and in that sense, aircraft skin undergoes stress by applied aerodynamic fluids imparted by the fluid. Stress as used in continuum mechanics may be described in pound-force per square inch (lbf/in 2 ) or Pascals (Pa). In semi-monocoque construction stressed skin may bear part of aerodynamic loads and additionally may impart force on an underlying structure of stringers and formers. 
     Still referring to  FIG.  1   , it should be noted that an illustrative embodiment is presented only, and this disclosure in no way limits the form or construction method of a system and method for loading payload into an eVTOL aircraft. In embodiments, fuselage  104  may be configurable based on the needs of the eVTOL per specific mission or objective. The general arrangement of components, structural elements, and hardware associated with storing and/or moving a payload may be added or removed from fuselage  104  as needed, whether it is stowed manually, automatedly, or removed by personnel altogether. Fuselage  104  may be configurable for a plurality of storage options. Bulkheads and dividers may be installed and uninstalled as needed, as well as longitudinal dividers where necessary. Bulkheads and dividers may be installed using integrated slots and hooks, tabs, boss and channel, or hardware like bolts, nuts, screws, nails, clips, pins, and/or dowels, to name a few. Fuselage  104  may also be configurable to accept certain specific cargo containers, or a receptable that can, in turn, accept certain cargo containers. 
     Still referring to  FIG.  1   , aircraft  100  may include a plurality of laterally extending elements attached to fuselage  104 . As used in this disclosure a “laterally extending element” is an element that projects essentially horizontally from fuselage, including an outrigger, a spar, and/or a fixed wing that extends from fuselage. Wings may be structures which may include airfoils configured to create a pressure differential resulting in lift. Wings may generally dispose on the left and right sides of the aircraft symmetrically, at a point between nose and empennage. Wings may comprise a plurality of geometries in planform view, swept swing, tapered, variable wing, triangular, oblong, elliptical, square, among others. A wing&#39;s cross section geometry may comprise an airfoil. An “airfoil” as used in this disclosure is a shape specifically designed such that a fluid flowing above and below it exert differing levels of pressure against the top and bottom surface. In embodiments, the bottom surface of an aircraft can be configured to generate a greater pressure than does the top, resulting in lift. Laterally extending element may comprise differing and/or similar cross-sectional geometries over its cord length or the length from wing tip to where wing meets aircraft&#39;s body. One or more wings may be symmetrical about aircraft&#39;s longitudinal plane, which comprises the longitudinal or roll axis reaching down the center of aircraft through the nose and empennage, and plane&#39;s yaw axis. Laterally extending element may comprise controls surfaces configured to be commanded by a pilot or pilots to change a wing&#39;s geometry and therefore its interaction with a fluid medium, like air. Control surfaces may comprise flaps, ailerons, tabs, spoilers, and slats, among others. The control surfaces may dispose on the wings in a plurality of locations and arrangements and in embodiments may be disposed at the leading and trailing edges of the wings, and may be configured to deflect up, down, forward, aft, or a combination thereof. An aircraft, including a dual-mode aircraft may comprise a combination of control surfaces to perform maneuvers while flying or on ground. 
     Still referring to  FIG.  1   , aircraft  100  may include a plurality of flight components  108 . As used in this disclosure a “flight component” is a component that promotes flight and guidance of an aircraft. In an embodiment, flight component  108  may be mechanically coupled to an aircraft. As used herein, a person of ordinary skill in the art would understand “mechanically coupled” to mean that at least a portion of a device, component, or circuit is connected to at least a portion of the aircraft via a mechanical coupling. Said mechanical coupling may include, for example, rigid coupling, such as beam coupling, bellows coupling, bushed pin coupling, constant velocity, split-muff coupling, diaphragm coupling, disc coupling, donut coupling, elastic coupling, flexible coupling, fluid coupling, gear coupling, grid coupling, hirth joints, hydrodynamic coupling, jaw coupling, magnetic coupling, Oldham coupling, sleeve coupling, tapered shaft lock, twin spring coupling, rag joint coupling, universal joints, or any combination thereof. In an embodiment, mechanical coupling may be used to connect the ends of adjacent parts and/or objects of an electric aircraft. Further, in an embodiment, mechanical coupling may be used to join two pieces of rotating electric aircraft components. 
     Still referring to  FIG.  1   , plurality of flight components  108  may include at least a lift propulsor. As used in this disclosure a “propulsor” is a component and/or device used to propel a craft upward by exerting force on a fluid medium, which may include a gaseous medium such as air or a liquid medium such as water. Propulsor may include any device or component that consumes electrical power on demand to propel an electric aircraft in a direction or other vehicle while on ground or in-flight. For example, and without limitation, propulsor may include a rotor, propeller, paddle wheel and the like thereof. In an embodiment, propulsor may include a plurality of blades. As used in this disclosure a “blade” is a propeller that converts rotary motion from an engine or other power source into a swirling slipstream. In an embodiment, blade may convert rotary motion to push the propeller forwards or backwards. In an embodiment propulsor may include a rotating power-driven hub, to which are attached several radial airfoil-section blades such that the whole assembly rotates about a longitudinal axis. 
     In an embodiment, and still referring to  FIG.  1   , plurality of flight components  108  may include one or more power sources. As used in this disclosure a “power source” is a source that that drives and/or controls any other flight component. For example, and without limitation power source may include a motor that operates to move one or more lift propulsor components, to drive one or more blades, or the like thereof. A motor may be driven by direct current (DC) electric power and may include, without limitation, brushless DC electric motors, switched reluctance motors, induction motors, or any combination thereof. A motor may also include electronic speed controllers or other components for regulating motor speed, rotation direction, and/or dynamic braking. In an embodiment, power source may include an inverter. As used in this disclosure an “inverter” is a device that changes one or more currents of a system. For example, and without limitation, inverter may include one or more electronic devices that change direct current to alternating current. As a further non-limiting example, inverter may include receiving a first input voltage and outputting a second voltage, wherein the second voltage is different from the first voltage. In an embodiment, and without limitation, inverter may output a waveform, wherein a waveform may comprise a square wave, sine wave, modified sine wave, near sine wave, and the like thereof. 
     Still referring to  FIG.  1   , power source may include an energy source. An energy source may include, for example, a generator, a photovoltaic device, a fuel cell such as a hydrogen fuel cell, direct methanol fuel cell, and/or solid oxide fuel cell, an electric energy storage device (e.g. a capacitor, an inductor, and/or a battery). An energy source may also include a battery cell, or a plurality of battery cells connected in series into a module and each module connected in series or in parallel with other modules. Configuration of an energy source containing connected modules may be designed to meet an energy or power requirement and may be designed to fit within a designated footprint in an electric aircraft in which aircraft  100  may be incorporated. 
     In an embodiment, and still referring to  FIG.  1   , an energy source may be used to provide a steady supply of electrical power to a load over the course of a flight by a vehicle or other electric aircraft. For example, the energy source may be capable of providing sufficient power for “cruising” and other relatively low-energy phases of flight. An energy source may also be capable of providing electrical power for some higher-power phases of flight as well, particularly when the energy source is at a high SOC, as may be the case for instance during takeoff. In an embodiment, the energy source may be capable of providing sufficient electrical power for auxiliary loads including without limitation, lighting, navigation, communications, de-icing, steering or other systems requiring power or energy. Further, the energy source may be capable of providing sufficient power for controlled descent and landing protocols, including, without limitation, hovering descent or runway landing. As used herein the energy source may have high power density where the electrical power an energy source can usefully produce per unit of volume and/or mass is relatively high. The electrical power is defined as the rate of electrical energy per unit time. An energy source may include a device for which power that may be produced per unit of volume and/or mass has been optimized, at the expense of the maximal total specific energy density or power capacity, during design. Non-limiting examples of items that may be used as at least an energy source may include batteries used for starting applications including Li ion batteries which may include NCA, NMC, Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) and Lithium Manganese Oxide (LMO) batteries, which may be mixed with another cathode chemistry to provide more specific power if the application requires Li metal batteries, which have a lithium metal anode that provides high power on demand, Li ion batteries that have a silicon or titanite anode, energy source may be used, in an embodiment, to provide electrical power to an electric aircraft or drone, such as an electric aircraft vehicle, during moments requiring high rates of power output, including without limitation takeoff, landing, thermal de-icing and situations requiring greater power output for reasons of stability, such as high turbulence situations, as described in further detail below.

The module may include batteries connected in parallel or in series or a plurality of modules connected either in series or in parallel designed to deliver both the power and energy requirements of the application. Connecting batteries in series may increase the voltage of at least an energy source which may provide more power on demand. High voltage batteries may require cell matching when high peak load is needed. As more cells are connected in strings, there may exist the possibility of one cell failing which may increase resistance in the module and reduce the overall power output as the voltage of the module may decrease as a result of that failing cell. Connecting batteries in parallel may increase total current capacity by decreasing total resistance, and it also may increase overall amp-hour capacity. The overall energy and power outputs of at least an energy source may be based on the individual battery cell performance or an extrapolation based on the measurement of at least an electrical parameter. In an embodiment where the energy source includes a plurality of battery cells, the overall power output capacity may be dependent on the electrical parameters of each individual cell. If one cell experiences high self-discharge during demand, power drawn from at least an energy source may be decreased to avoid damage to the weakest cell. The energy source may further include, without limitation, wiring, conduit, housing, cooling system and battery management system. Persons skilled in the art will be aware, after reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, of many different components of an energy source.

For example, forward thrust may include a force of 1145 N to force aircraft to in a horizontal direction along the longitudinal axis. As a further non-limiting example, pusher component may twist and/or rotate to pull air behind it and, at the same time, push aircraft  100  forward with an equal amount of force. In an embodiment, and without limitation, the more air forced behind aircraft, the greater the thrust force with which aircraft  100  is pushed horizontally will be. In another embodiment, and without limitation, forward thrust may force aircraft  100  through the medium of relative air. Additionally or alternatively, plurality of flight components  108  may include one or more puller components.

Flight controller is described herein more detail in reference to  FIG.  2   . 
     Now referring to  FIG.  2   , an exemplary embodiment of a system  200  for a visual system of an electric aircraft is illustrated. System  200  is configured to generate an output of the view of the exterior environment of aircraft  100  and can include exterior visual device  116 , computing device  112 , and pilot display  120 , and any combination thereof. 
     Still referring to  FIG.  2   , system  200  is configured to comprise of one or more exterior visual device  116 . As used in this disclosure an “exterior visual device” denotes any device, module, and/or subsystem, utilizing any hardware, software, and/or any combination thereof to detect visual events and/or changes in the instant environment and transmit the information. Exterior visual device  116  may be attached via a mechanically and/or communicatively coupled, as described above, to aircraft. For example, and without limitation, exterior visual device  116  may include a LIDAR system, an imager, a machine-vision system, any sort of camera system, including a monocular, omnidirectional, multispectral, or panoramic camera, any sort of sensor, including a potentiometric sensor, inductive sensor, capacitive sensor, piezoelectric sensor, strain gauge sensor, variable reluctance sensor, environmental sensor, electro-optic sensor, and the like thereof. Exterior visual device  116  may include a field camera. “Field camera,” for the purposes of this disclosure, is an optical device or combination of optical devices, configured to capture a field of vision as an electrical signal, to form a digital image. Field camera may include a single camera and/or two or more cameras used to capture field of vision. In a non-limiting embodiment, two or more cameras may capture two or more perspectives for use in stereoscopic and/or three-dimensional pilot display  120 , as described above. Field camera may capture a feed including a plurality of frames, such as without limitation a video feed. Additionally, exterior visual device  116  must have a visual component so the pilot is able to see the entirety of area surrounding aircraft  100 . Exterior visual device  116  may utilize artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, machine learning, digital signal processing, image processing in the searching detection. Exterior visual device  116  may be facing downward and may be adjustable to capture the view from different angles. In some cases, software modules disclosed herein achieve fast runtimes on high-definition (HD) imagery, while remaining robust to variations due to lens distortion, shadows, occlusion, glare, and exposure problems. Robustness is essential for operations without a pilot in the loop, especially when deployed from unmanned vessels. Exterior visual device  116  deals with the transmission of visual imagery. Visual imagery, analogous with photogrammetry, deals with the acquisition of graphics, videos, and other visual information. These are usually acquired with the aid of still image cameras, video cameras, mobile phones, and so on.
