This article deals with development and implementation of low-cost synthetic vision system primarily targeted for light sport aircrafts and general aviation. The system uses high resolution terrain database with 3D topographic objects and produces image comparable with flight simulators. The visualization includes emulation of head-up style display with 3D navigation data and instruments. The hardware part uses commercial off-the-shelf inertial units and the visualization part is based on gaming technology. This system is intended to work as a back-up system for non IFR experienced pilots in case of unintended flight into IMC.
