Patent ID: 7739043

Claim:
A system for displaying on a first moving object a position indication dependent on a position of a second moving object, said system comprising: a measurement device that carries out at least one position measurement and is arranged exclusively on the first moving object, said measurement device comprising a first element which is configured to carry out a first position measurement, corresponding to the actual position of said first moving object; a processing device mounted on said first moving object and connected to said measurement device, said processing device determining a characteristic position which is fixed; a display device mounted on said first moving object, which is connected to said processing device, and which presents, upon the generation of said characteristic position, on a viewing screen, on a display illustrating at least partially the environment of said first moving object, said position indication which is situated at said characteristic position; and a triggering device that triggers the implementation of at least one measurement by said measurement device, wherein said processing device determines, as a characteristic position, a fixed position which no longer displaces onward at the instant generated and which corresponds to a particular geographical position related to a trajectory of said second moving object, wherein said measurement device comprises a third element which is configured to measure, at a same instant as said first element, a relative position between said first and second moving objects, and wherein said processing device determines said fixed position, on the basis of said first position measurement and of said measured relative position.
