Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Growing interest in increased cockpit vision has been shown for some time by the aircraft industry. This interest has been brought about by the general belief of airline pilots that cockpit vision in most present-day transports is not entirely satisfactory. Due to the substantial increase in the number of aircraft now using our airports and airways, there is a definite need for increased cockpit vision. The operational characteristics of aircraft vary considerably from one type to another, yet all use the same airports. The pilot eye-movement study is one phase of a cockpit vision study that was commenced in 1948 by the Technical Development and Evaluation Center of the Civil Aeronautics Administration at Indianapolis. The specific aim of the study was to determine which areas of the windshield and what visual angles the pilots actually use in performing critical flight maneuvers defined as take-off, landing approach, and low altitude turns. These definitions were established by the airline pilots themselves and were taken from a previous study of cockpit visibility, which study was based on an airline pilot questionnaire."--Introduction.

Book excerpt: "To obtain further substantial information for establishing minimum angles of vision from the cockpits of Army liaison-reconnaissance-type fixed-wing aircraft, motion pictures were taken of pilots’ eye movements with a newly developed head-mounted camera while each of a group of Army pilots performed various normal and tactical flight maneuvers. The head-mounted camera recorded both the field of view in the pilot’s look direction and the eyes and forehead on each photographic frame. It was possible to determine through which portion of the windshield the pilot was looking within 3.3°. The resulting data are presented for all conventional and tactical maneuvers performed in the Cessna L-19 "Bird Dog" aircraft in terms of the percentage of photographic frames to show the use of the available windshield area. The windshield area used by the pilots during the pilot eye-movement study substantiates, to a considerable extent, the conclusions drawn from a pilot questionnaire study of windshield use reported previously."--Summary.

This book was released on 1954 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is the ninth in a series of investigations of eye movements of pilots during instrument flight. The frequency, duration and sequence of eye fixations made by 15 pilots when flying day straight and level, level turns, straight dives and 180 degree time turns, and during night straight and level and level turns with a new panel arrangement are summarized. Comparisons are made between the maneuvers flown under day and night conditions. Also, for comparison of standard and experimental panel arrangements, data previously obtained using the standard Air Force panel during routine maneuvers under day conditions are included. Under all conditions the directional gyro, gyro horizon, vertical speed, airspeed and altimeter are the most used instruments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a flight, pilots must rigorously monitor specific flight instruments (e.g., attitude indicator, airspeed, altimeter, engine parameters) as well as the external environment (e.g., locate terrain features on the ground, especially in clear weather conditions by low altitude) to update their situational awareness. This monitoring activity, which is critical during dynamic flight phases (e.g., takeoff, approach phase, and landing), consist in observing and interpreting the flight path, the selected automation modes, and the systems used onboard. This involves a real-time comparison between the data displayed on the instruments and the values expected during the flight phases. Appropriate monitoring of the cockpit enables to take corrective measures (e.g., adjust the aircraft's trajectory when a deviation is detected in the attitude zone) promptly when a parameter is deviated, thus guaranteeing an optimal level of safety. This monitoring activity is structured in a sequence of engagement and redirection of the operator's visual attention from one instrument to another. Moreover, accident reports have shown that piloting errors, such as incorrect trajectories or overspeed during landing, are often the result of inadequate monitoring of cockpit instruments. The purpose of this research work is to improve the flight safety thanks in particular to the integration of an eye-tracker. Eye movements are a window on the pilot's cognitive state and reveal the attentional paths taken by the operator through his visual path. In connection with cockpit monitoring issues, we have developed a Flight Eye Tracking Assistant (FETA) based on expert visual behaviors (e.g., 24 pilots with more than 1600 flight hours). This assistant warns the pilots, thanks to an audible alarm, when they no longer sufficiently consult a flight instrument in comparison with the expert eye movement database. A human factors evaluation of this assistant raised several issues with such an assistant and paved the way for further research including metrics that best reflect the eye paths in the cockpit and the need to find the right metric to quantify a pilot's visual attention onboard. Part of this research work is based on a comparison between novices and experts in order to quantify the mark of expertise. A method using the K coefficient applied to the AOIs allowed to qualify the visual attention of the pilots (focal vs ambient) during a flight simulator scenario with different loads of visuomotor activity. Machine learning methods based on transition matrices allowed to classify the expertise with an accuracy of 91%. Finally, two methods were used to qualify and quantify visual strategies in the cockpit. A method using Lempel-Ziv Complexity (LZC), a data compression algorithm, to highlight the complexity of the scanning sequences in the cockpit. Another called N-gram method, originally derived from DNA sequence research, which quantifies the patterns common to the expert group and the length of the patterns used. These contributions are discussed in the light of the improvement of a flying assistant based on eye tracking data for improving learning on the one hand and avoiding monitoring problems on the other. Finally, the evaluation of the FETA prototype raised perspectives on the choice of the most relevant modality (e.g. auditory, visual, haptic) for alerting.

Book excerpt: "The current research investigated the application of eye-tracking technology and PC-based Aviation Training Device (PCATD) in the training of novice pilots. It was expected that improving pilots’ gaze behavior enhance pilots’ situation awareness and flight performance. The effectiveness of the training intervention was evaluated using eye movements, flight, and verbal data. The target population of the current research was student pilots of general aviation (GA) who fly under visual flight rules (VFR) in the daytime with single-engine aircraft."--Abstract, page iii.
