The sensory prerequisites of effective simulator-based pilot training

该项目旨在调查使用头盔虚拟现实系统进行培训的情况，重点是航空业。该项目希望提高我们对飞行员如何结合来自他们的感官系统的信息以成功操作飞机的理解。预期结果包括确定模拟器最佳设计的方法，该模拟器旨在使飞行员为特定任务做好准备，最终目标是开发和验证原型训练设备。在航空业难以满足全球对新飞行员的需求之际，通过改进模拟器技术的设计和优化成本，预计这些结果将使飞行员培训的许多领域受益。

This Project aims to investigate the use of head-mounted virtual reality systems for training, with specific focus on the aviation industry. The Project expects to improve our understanding of how pilots combine information from their sensory systems in order to successfully operate an aircraft. Expected outcomes include methods for specifying the optimal design of simulators intended to prepare pilots for a specific task, with the ultimate goal of developing and validating a prototype training device. The outcomes are expected to benefit many areas of pilot training by improving the design and optimising the cost of simulator technologies at a time when the aviation industry is struggling to meet the global demand for new pilots.
