Spatial Disorientation Training

STI has begun a new Phase II SBIR program for the FAA that will develop methods to demonstrate spatial disorientation in a Level D Flight Simulator to enhance commercial pilot training. This two year program will feature piloted evaluations in the NASA Ames Boeing 747-400 flight simulator.

Measuring Pilot Workload

STI with partners Calspan Corporation and Advanced Brain Monitoring, Inc. recently completed a program for AFRL that featured the first of its kind comparison of EEG/ECG-based workload measures made in flight with those made in a flight simulator with the same test pilot participants.
