For a long time, automation and, more recently, human-centered design (HCD), were developed to enhance safety, efficiency and comfort of civil and military aircraft. However, if automation led to considerably effective results in a large number of situations, experience shows that automation can become a very rigid tool in unexpected situations. Indeed, automation consists in compiling...
In the proposed presentation, we want to give an overview of our research in the domain of Manned-Unmanned-Teaming (MUM-T) for fighter jets. The Institute of Flight Systems (IFS) aims to develop a concept of MUM-T for airborne military operations by means of work system analysis and cockpit simulation of full missions. From that, we develop solutions to the main challenges of MUM-T.

Most modern airplanes include automated systems to improve both the efficiency and safety of flight. By the standards of the automotive industry, these avionics systems are both highly complex and highly automated.
Ongoing advancements in computing systems and machine learning lead the SAE to publish a
Taxonomy and Definitions for Terms Related to Driving Automation Systems for On-Road...
During a flight, pilots must master complex situations, while facing increasing system complexity due to the amount and type of information available. As part of the Horizon 2020-funded programme of work, Clean Sky 2, Co2Team (Cognitive Collaboration for Teaming) pursues the idea that a system based on artificial intelligence can effectively support the pilot using cognitive computing towards...
