Yocova, in its article dated September 07, said that eye tracking technology or gaze tracking is becoming more interesting in the aviation industry with experts seeing the value it may offer to the future of aviation. An excerpt from the published article is quoted as follows: "In a flight simulator, eye tracking technology — like that from Seeing Machines or Smart Eye — provides a real-time overlay on an instructor’s screen of where the pilots are looking on the Primary Flight Display or the Navigation Display. The resulting information can also be reviewed in debriefs after the simulator session is over. A study carried out by researchers at the ETH Zurich university, in collaboration with Swiss, NASA and Smart Eye, found that the technology could help instructors analyse flying performance more accurately, by recognising weaknesses in scanning and helping them to assess the causes of pilot error. ETH Zurich researchers are now working on an eye gaze and gesture tracking project, PEGGASUS, which involves Swiss and Thales and has funding from the European Commission.Emirates and Qantas have been using Seeing Machines’ technology, which sees a camera mounted in the aircraft’s glare shield, in some of their simulators. Qantas has used the technology to help pilots adjust to using the Head-Up Display (HUD) on their Boeing 787 flight simulators. Seeing Machines’ Nolan says an interesting simulator scenario is during an engine failure just prior to V1, the speed at which the stop or go decision is made during takeoff.'It’s fascinating to watch the decision making,' Nolan says. 'Instructors have told us that they have never had that level of granularity on where the pilots were looking when decisions were being made.' Another potential opportunity could be to support crash or incident investigations by recreating the relevant scenarios and using the gaze-tracking outputs to better understand how pilots were making decisions in such a scenario.The technology has of course come across some pushback over privacy concerns. Seeing Machines’ Nolan says the company is in touch with aviation regulators and unions. Both Nolan and Shahmehr each highlighted that their cameras do not record video footage or pictures and once this is explained, the technology is generally well received."

According to Bloomberg on September 06, Airbus delivered a total of 47 aircraft for the entirety of the month of July 2021. The following month, August, it was down to 40 aircraft. From January to August this year, Airbus has 380 aircraft delivered however, a full-year target is set to 600. Airbus in August increased its sales largely because of deals with Jet2 Plc and Delta Airlines.For more information, kindly contactAirbus.You may also check ourTerms and Conditionsfor our Content Policy.

Part of the Aviationfly – Connecting the Pilot Training Ecosystem Team is based in Germany which (similar to most of Europe) is seeing loosening of pandemic restrictions. The Team in Frankfurt is working from the office and there is no-requirement to wear masks when moving around outside! We also have a large team based in Manila, Philippines, and there the country has just announced that it will go into a hard-lockdown again in August. Following a similar path of increased restrictions as other South-East Asia Nations such as Malaysia, Vietnam and Indonesia. After more than a year of heightened restrictions, a large part of the pilot training infrastructure in S.E. Asia has greatly reduced its operational capacity! Will this be the final wave – as when looking at India studies show that 2/3 of the population has antibodies to C19 after the Delta wave in May/June.You may also check ourTerms and Conditionsfor our Content Policy.
