Pilot-Vehicle Interface

Abstract

Agile aircraft introduce new requirements and performance standards for the pilot-vehicle interface. This lecture will address these ergonomic issues as they pertain to agile aircraft. Specifically, controls and displays will be discussed, followed by design issues relevant to intelligent interfaces. The concepts and technologies proposed as candidate solutions for creating pilot-vehicle synergy are, for the most part, untested at present. It is hoped that this lecture will provide the impetus for the research required to realize a pilot-vehicle interface that will enhance the operation of agile aircraft.
