Evaluation of human performance using touch screen displays in cockpit environment

Touchscreen technologies are making their way into aircraft flight decks as a means for pilots to view and interact with flight data. However, these touchscreens are often placed at arm’s length from the pilot, and all aircraft can experience turbulence. Even without turbulence, helicopter pilots in particular can be exposed to high...

Gestion de la performance chirurgicale – Intégration d’une méthode d’analyse des compétences techniques à un simulateur chirurgical dynamique

Encore aujourd’hui, les résidents en chirurgie performent régulièrement un geste pour la première fois sur un patient. De nombreux modèles de simulation chirurgicale existent, mais ne permettent pas la pratique de procédures complexes par manque de dynamisme, de réalisme, ou d’accessibilité. De plus, l’évaluation de la performance chirurgicale se fait...

Integrating artificial intelligence with computer simulation to support decision-making in the context of Industry 4.0

Industry 4.0 is a central strategy to strengthen the competitiveness of the manufacturing sector over the next
years. Nevertheless, there is a lack of common understanding of the Industry 4.0 concept and tools to help
companies’ transformation to Industry 4.0, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which...
