Autorotation is an emergency maneuver executed by helicopter pilots usually following a
loss of power, mechanical or system failure. The pilot is required to perform several tasks …

This paper details the design and limited flight testing of a preliminary system for visual pilot
cueing during autorotation maneuvers. The cueing system is based on a fully-autonomous …

Haptic cues on the side stick are a promising method to reduce loss of control in-flight
incidents. They can be intuitively interpreted and provide immediate support, leading to a …

The objective of the present research is to enhance pilot performance and reduce spatial
disorientation which was identified as the major cause of aircrew/aircraft losses. Spatial …

This novel flight instrument display presents information to the pilot in a simple and easily
comprehensible format by integrating the five orientational flight parameters. It allows the …

This paper describes the design and evaluation of a visual display in supplementing haptic
feedback on the side stick as a way to communicate flight envelope boundaries to pilots. The …

The Tactile Situation Awareness System (TSAS) consists of an array of tactors applied, in
columns and rows, to the torso, that provide intuitive three dimensional (3D) information to …

This paper describes an experiment conducted to investigate the effects of roll-sway motion
cueing algorithms on perceived simulator motion fidelity in a lateral repositioning task. The …

Perspective flight-path displays are a viable alternative for the aircraft primary flight display,
but increases the pilot head-down time. A haptic interface is developed to counter this effect …

A" dynamically adaptive interface"(DAI) is a computer interface that changes the display or
control characteristics of the system (perhaps both) in real time. The goal of dynamically …
