Applying a model-based observer to estimate pilot expectation

• Apply a model-based observer (MBO) • Estimate the best possible pilot expectation • Based on █ Knowledge of the aircraft dynamics █ Vestibular system sensing █ A given visual scan • Experiments • Sub-threshold and above threshold bank maneuver • Application • Identify desired pilot scanning behavior for training programs • Develop countermeasures to improve flight deck design and prevent error associated with events such as distraction • Determine how accurately pilots need to process information from flight displays Potential use in flight simulators and on the flightdeck when combined with eye-tracking devices
