Inhaltsangabe

Since the advent of powered flight, there have been continuous enhancements to aviation technology resulting in faster, more reliable and safer air travel. In parallel to the leaps and bounds achieved in mechanical engineering, there has been increasing understanding of the physiological and psychological limitations of human beings, and how these can best be mitigated by aircraft design and pilot training. This book begins with a thorough grounding in key areas of importance to the development and operation of Head-up displays (HUD) systems, including the human visual system, the history and development of conventional cockpit instrumentation, and a summary of the technical aspects and human factors considerations relating to HUD systems. Radiation monitoring is an essential part of any radiation protection program of a nuclear plant. The measurement of ambient values is crucial to minimize exposure to workers and estimates occupancy times for radiological areas. In that scenario, aerial surveys are useful to provide a precise perspective for monitoring, and, in case of an accident, it would not require human participation directly into potential hot zones to get data on the leak scope. So, a comprehensive approach on remotely piloted aircraft systems and a wireless sensors network for radiological accidents is described in this book. The book also focuses on a hardware-in-the-loop facility aimed at real-time testing of architectures and algorithms of multisensor sense and avoids systems. It is aimed at flight demonstration of autonomous non-cooperative collision avoidance for Unmanned Aircraft Systems. Within the system development, a key role was played by an ad hoc developed hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) facility, aimed at testing the real-time operation of image processing and data fusion algorithms.
