Information Overload Part 2 of 2

[simrobin]

in fact, much of this tech is now being used in future autonomous UCAV's. the only reason for its slow up take, is TRUST, we are still trying to understand the recipe for developing an effective AI element. the Creatures tech has come very close, frightening instructor pilots, as it learnt from so many instructors, they found it hard to beat. it's initial use was to train junior combat pilots, then it thought it could act as an associate in the cockpit and now, but its still got to earn TRUST.

in the 80's and 90's there were a number of research programs (US = Pilot's Associate, Rotorcraft Associate, Crewman Associate; UK = Mission Management Aid) to help with this information overload. the idea being the human remains the executive, the final say, the AI flies the a/c. it was always proven that the a/c could fly it self without the human. a follow on program using the Creatures tech in the UK proved very successful. this tech is now just starting to come through in todays a/c.

so, question is, where are we new? w/ the F-22, EF2000, Su-35, MiG-35, Rafale and all other nowadays aircraft? they're still flown by humans, and they only have a "full glass" cockpit instead of all those analog counters. so, in the end, it all became more simple for the pilot to handle, is that all?

I'm fascinated by all this.

thanks for uploading this video.

"Fuel"

"Fix it."

Sound is out of sync?

"Fix it"

I enjoy your videos even if they didn't have sound, Crash. Thanks for all the posts.

RGR the sound is out of sync in parts of the video, some sort of compression issue I think.

that weird helmet has already been miniaturized. In the F-35 lightning II you dont have a HUD. Instead, you look formward and a HUD appears proyected in your helmet. There is also an electronic sight mounted in the helmet to aim off-boresight missles like ASRAAM, AIM-9X or Python 4

LoudS1l3nc3: That as many other things in the video were essentially state of the art at the time. Some of the advanced technology in the video, is almost laughable by today's standards, however we probably wouldn't have the more advanced technology that we have today if it wasn't for research and development like this. At the time the computer graphics in the video were state-of-the-art, now it seems fairly primitive.

y not just think of ways to stop wars? that would much easier

lukkox "y not just think of ways to stop wars"

We have thought of ways of preventing war but many don't listen. Iraq had over a decade and never complied with the peace agreement. Much like North Korea and Iran have not complied with the nuclear proliferation agreements. Then there is other hate and warmongers like OBL/Al Qaeda.

lukkox "that would much easier"

In an idealistic world yes, in the real world no.

I disagree, there are car wrecks every day because people talk on cell phones, distractive passengers (chatty, nagy). Reading, eating, watching media, or even adjusting controls like the radio can be enough of a distraction that it causes car accidents every day. People try to change close and shave while driving, unfortunately many of them are less competent than Mr. Bean.

I'm not sure I would agree with the premise that it is the most difficult thing to do in the world, but it is certainly up there. It also depends on the conditions, there are times it is extremely simple to the point of extreme boredom. Then there are times that I think the average person couldn't understand how complex things are or how fast things happen.

[ATFSCrash]

Let's face it, your average driver doesn't have the mental capacity of a fighter pilot when it comes to controlling a vehicle. Most pilots have no difficulty talking on a radio and flying an aircraft simultaneously. However there is a very large segment of population that can't even talk on the cell phone and drive without severely compromising safety. Some statistics suggest that talking on the cell phone is more dangerous than drunk driving.
