“…Because SVS displays are designed to address CFIT, they must support accurate pilot SpA (Bolton et al, 2007). Our study demonstrated that SVS-enabled developments in high-level spatial representations were superior to those developed without SVS, suggesting that SVS seems to be advantageous, as already shown in several studies on SpA (Alexander et al, 2009; Bolton et al, 2007; Hughes & Glaab, 2007). As seen through their use in our study, spatial representations showed promise as an SpA-level indicator, yet none of our results nor those of existing studies could point to the potential parallel between SpA levels and SpK levels.…”

“…Similarly, numerous metrics have been employed among SVS-based studies showing that although benefits from SVS are observed, they are often design dependent (i.e., the 2D perspective display by SVS can induce spatial biases affecting SpA; Wickens, 2002b). Performance measures have included traffic location judgment (Alexander et al, 2009), the number of correct identifications of images made when matching a video of the actual terrain to SVS displays (Schnell & Lemos, 2002), the reproduction of highlighted terrain points from a blank SVS display on an out-the-window display (Alexander, Wickens, & Hardy, 2005), and both the detection and anticipation of CFIT incidents (Arthur et al, 2004; Hughes & Glaab, 2007; Uhlarik, Peterson, & Herold, 1998). Overall, as noted by Bolton et al (2007), these studies did not directly address any of three levels of SpA defined by Wickens, nor the L-R-S levels of SpK.…”

“…Note that there exist other instruments providing information about roll, such as multifunction display panels in advanced aircrafts (e.g.,Alexander, Prinzel, Arthur, & Bailey, 2009). For the sake of clarity, we restrict our discussion to the two basic versions of the attitude indicator.…”

Effective rotations: Action effects determine the interplay of mental and manual rotations.

The last decades have seen a growing interest in the impact of action on perception and other concurrent cognitive processes. One particularly interesting example is that manual rotation actions facilitate mental rotations in the same direction. The present study extends this research in two fundamental ways. First, Experiment 1 demonstrates that not only manual rotations facilitate mental rotations but that mental rotations also facilitate subsequent manual rotations. Second, Experiments 2 and 3 targeted the mechanisms underlying this interplay. Here, manual steering wheel rotations produced salient visual effects, namely the rotation of either a plane or a horizon in an aviation display. The rotation direction of these visual effects either did or did not correspond to the direction of the manual rotation itself. These experiments clearly demonstrate an impact of sensory action effects: Mental rotations facilitate manual rotations with visual effects of the same direction (as the mental rotation), irrespective of the direction of the manual rotation. These findings highlight the importance of effect anticipation in action planning. As such they support the contentions of ideomotor theory and shed new light on the cognitive source of the interplay between visual imagery and motor control.

Designing augmented reality for future commercial aviation: a user-requirement analysis with commercial aviation pilots

Augmented reality (AR) capable head-mounted displays (HMDs) have been proposed as technological enablers of several complex future flight concepts, which will bring accompanying pilot situation awareness (SA) and operational safety enhancements. However, relevant aviation design guidance concerning the implementation of modern HMD technologies and AR symbology is sparse. Consequently, the current study describes an SA grounded user-requirements analysis of operational applications for HMD technologies and AR symbology, with the intention of providing inputs for future designs of commercial aviation systems. In addition, insights from the study are relevant for AR design more generally. Endsley’s three-level SA model (1988) was applied as a framework to focus group discussions with eleven aviation subject matter experts. Thematic analysis highlighted multiple operational scenarios where HMD technology and AR may enhance SA, along with the requirements of the technologies to provide these relevant advantages. In future, more detailed user-centred design recommendations should be sought for the specific applications identified within the current study.
