Book Synopsis Evaluation of Several TV Display Systems for Visual Simulation of the Landing Approach by : Wendell D. Chase
Download or read book Evaluation of Several TV Display Systems for Visual Simulation of the Landing Approach written by Wendell D. Chase and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study has been conducted to determine the effect of several variations of two types of visual display systems on subjective pilot evaluations and objective measures of performance in the landing approach. Two types of flight approaches were made with either a projector or quasicollimated monitor visual display: (I) the instrument approach, and (2) the visual approach without the normal cockpit instrumentation assistance. The variables examined were color; differences between displays due to quasicollimation of the monitor display; and reduced resolution as related to brightness, contrast, and sharpness. The use of color had two main effects on pilot performance in the landing approach. The touchdown distance and standard deviations increased more for the monitor displays, and the touchdown rates of descent were slightly lower. With quasicollimation, the standard deviations of touchdown distance increased, and the rate-of-descent standard deviations decreased in a direction more favorable with the actual flight data; an association between the standard deviations of rate of descent and touchdown distance suggests that a corresponding decrease in the deviation of rate of descent will be offset with an increase in the deviations of touchdown distance. The time outside the glide-slope error limits was less with the monitor display than with the projector display, and the lateral localizer error was smaller for the projector display because the pilots intercepted the runway center line at a greater distance from the threshold. With reduced resolution, there was a slight change in the touchdown distance and the standard deviation; for the flights made without color, the landings were predominantly to the right of the runway center line with twice the standard deviation. The pilots were more critical of the black and white variation for either display, and favored more use of a color system. Advantages cited for a color system included greater pilot relaxation, decreased fatigue, better picture quality, and more realistic depth perception, particularly with the monitor display. With regard to the reduced-resolution monitor display, the pilots also noted a loss in depth perception and height references, increased visual fatigue, and increased efforts for a reasonable approach in comparison with the projector display. The objective performance measures of the study were reasonably consistent with the pilots' subjective evaluations and comments.

Download or read book General Aviation Cockpit Display and Control Simulation written by Robert J. Ontiveros and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experiment was conducted to evaluate, by use of a general aviation simulator and airplane, typical versus experimental concepts of general aviation cockpit environments in an effort to reduce pilot workload and training time to operate an airplane in today's IFR environment and to meet the flight skills required for the instrument rating flight test. Phase I of the experiment examined the flight performance of a group of noninstrument-rated pilot subjects utilizing a cockpit environment typical of aircraft used for single engine instrument flight training. Phase II of the experiment examined the instrument flight performance of a similar group of pilots. Flight training was accomplished in an experimental cockpit environment consisting of improved cockpit displays, controls and instruments to provide maximum assistance to the pilot. Project results indicated a reduced pilot workload and training time to operate an aircraft in an IFR environment. An experimental flight training syllabus was utilized with both pilot groups. Phase III of the experiment examined the flight performance of the Phase II group in a conventional cockpit environment. The report also describes pilot performance and problem areas encountered during training and check flights in both the typical and experimental cockpit environments of the simulator and airplane.

Download or read book Study to Expand Simulation Cockpit Displays of Advanced Sensors written by J. Unterreiner and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This contractual effort was directed to the study to determine, examine and evaluate the cost and effectiveness of alternate methodologies for providing simulation capabilities of airborne sensor displays likely to be operational on combat aircraft throughout the 1980's and early 90's at levels of fidelity appropriate to R & D in flight simulation at the Flight Dynamics Laboratory. This study examined the state of the art and the projected technology of sensor systems adaptable to the combat aircraft engaged in threat environment in varied atmospheric weather conditions in dawn, dusk, night and day light. Some of the advanced sensor systems which were the focus of attention are the Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infra Red System for Night (LANTIRN), Target Acquisition/Designator System (TADS), Pilot Night Visual System (PNVS), and Multispectral Target Cuing (MYSTIC). These systems employ some technology of Low-Light Level Television (LLLTV), Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR), Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), and Laser Radar. The methodologies of simulating these sensor systems and integrating them to the out-of-the-cockpit image generation systems available at FDL for full mission environment were investigated and recommendations addressing the future additions to and modifications of the facilities at FDL were presented.

Book Synopsis Flight Simulation by : Alfred T. Lee
Download or read book Flight Simulation written by Alfred T. Lee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in computer, visual display, motion and force cueing and other technologies in the past two decades have had a dramatic effect on the design and use of simulation technology in aviation and other fields. The effective use of technology in training, safety investigation, engineering and scientific research requires an understanding of its capabilities and limitations. As the technology has as its primary goal the creation of virtual environments for human users, knowledge of human sensory, perceptual, and cognitive functioning is also needed. This book provides a review and analysis of the relevant engineering and science supporting the design and use of advanced flight simulation technologies. It includes chapters reviewing key simulation areas such as visual scene, motion, and sound simulation and a chapter analyzing the role of recreating the pilot's task environment in the overall effectiveness of simulators. The design and use of flight simulation are addressed in chapters on the effectiveness of flight simulators in training and on the role of physical and psychological fidelity in simulator design. The problems inherent in the ground-based simulation of flight are also reviewed as are promising developments in flight simulation technology and the important role flight simulators play in advanced aviation research. The readership includes: flight simulation engineers and designers, human factors researchers and practitioners, aviation safety investigators, flight training management and instructors, training and instructional technologists, virtual environment design community, and regulatory authorities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adverse aircraft-pilot coupling (APC) events include a broad set of undesirable and sometimes hazardous phenomena that originate in anomalous interactions between pilots and aircraft. As civil and military aircraft technologies advance, interactions between pilots and aircraft are becoming more complex. Recent accidents and other incidents have been attributed to adverse APC in military aircraft. In addition, APC has been implicated in some civilian incidents. This book evaluates the current state of knowledge about adverse APC and processes that may be used to eliminate it from military and commercial aircraft. It was written for technical, government, and administrative decisionmakers and their technical and administrative support staffs; key technical managers in the aircraft manufacturing and operational industries; stability and control engineers; aircraft flight control system designers; research specialists in flight control, flying qualities, human factors; and technically knowledgeable lay readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the complexity and capability of flight simulators have matched the growth of aerospace technology, there has until now been no textbook dealing specifically with the design and construction of flight simulators. This is a primary purpose of Flight Simulation. Written in collaboration with a number of internationally known specialists, the book considers the subject in three sections. Firstly it introduces the concept of simulation in order to identify the essential elements which make up the modern flight simulator. The development of these elements is also traced through the historical evolution of flight simulation. The main section of the book commences with an exposition of the mathematical models into dynamic physical devices capable of representing the response of a specific aircraft and its systems. The simulation of the flight environment is also covered in relation to cockpit motion systems and methods of representing the external visual scene. Another important aspect of simulation, the design of instructor and operating stations, is given separate attention. The final section considers the application of flight simulation to research and training and concludes with an appraisal of future prospects and developments.
