Les technologies d’écrans tactiles arrivent maintenant dans les postes de pilotage des aéronefs en tant que moyen permettant aux pilotes de voir et interagir avec les données de vol. Les écrans tactiles sont cependant souvent placés à distance du pilote, et tous les aéronefs peuvent faire face à des turbulences. Même en absence de turbulences, […]

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 levels of vibration caused by […]

Digital avionics systems of today are designed for the most part with embedded computers. These computers run safety-critical real-time applications such as flight management systems (FMS) and flight control systems (FCS). Even if avionics use conservative technologies, economic concerns are constantly pushing for changes. Space, weight, power and cooling (SWaP-C) considerations are gaining importance in […]
