    An enhanced flight vision system (EFVS, sometimes EVS) is an airborne system which provides an image of the scene and displays it to the pilot, in order to provide an image in which the scene and objects in it can be better detected. In other words, an EFVS is a system which provides the pilot with an image which is better than unaided human ...

    A synthetic vision system that was tested by NASA in a Gulfstream V business jet in 2004. In 2005 a synthetic vision system was installed on a Gulfstream V test aircraft as part of NASA's "Turning Goals Into Reality" program. [8] Much of the experience gained during that program led directly to the introduction of certified SVS on future aircraft.
