A plurality of image capturing devices capture the scene in front of the aircraft. Information regarding the three-dimensional geometry of the windscreen is used to “trim” the raw image data from the image capturing devices. The remaining image data in a “zone-of-interest” is processed to detect glare in the field-of-view visible through the windscreen. The trimming operation reduces the amount of time and processing resources needed to perform glare detection. Information regarding the position and viewpoint of the pilot and co-pilot are also provided to the glare reduction module. The glare reduction module generates a translucent overlay on the windscreen or OSTD for both the pilot and co-pilot to block or reduce the glare.
