To evaluate and optimise motion cueing algorithms for motion based flight simulators?
To assess the effects of motion on pilot performance?
A full flight simulator with fully programmable motion drive algorithms (MDA) / motion cueing algorithms (MCA)
A motion control computer that can run classic motion drive algorithms and can be replaced completely by user defined algorithms
A simulator cockpit layout that can be configured to represent different types of aircraft with for instance side stick, centre stick or control column and wheel flight controls
A set of aircraft simulation models ranging from a small business jet to a large transport aircraft
A flexible software environment which enables efficient integration of software. Software languages include Matlab Simulink, C, C++, Fortran or any customer specific language.
Knowledge and experience to design and conduct experiments to evaluate and optimise motion cueing algorithms and pilot performance
Tools for monitoring and recording any variables of interest in the (motion) simulation
Video registration of cockpit overview, the individual pilots and cockpit displays
Tools to measure human factors which produce data on the workload of the pilots and the accuracy of controlling the aircraft
A dedicated staff of research engineers and flight simulation specialists to support your human-in-the-loop experiments
A choice of a wide range of interconnected ground-based experiment facilities including desktop flight simulators, a mock-up flight simulator, a high fidelity moving base flight simulator or choose your own application using our modelling and simulation tools
