Pilot-in-The-Loop Mobil Research Test Bed

This projet aims at developing and implementing a Mobil UAV Ground Control Station (GCS). The system will support aviation safety research with pilot-in-the-loop capabilities using unmanned aerial systems platforms and where flight conditions, such as subsystems failures, could be simulated in real-time to characterize pilot response, control laws performance and human-machine and control laws interactions. A fruitful achievement of this project will provide a platform to validate and assess new concepts and technologies that are beneficial for improving engineering fidelity of early systems integration testing based on pilots feedback and their interaction with on-board flight controls systems.
