Deployment Scenario Title

HMI interaction modes for ATC centres and airport towers

Deployment Scenario Description Human-machine interface (HMI) interaction modes for ATC centres and airport towers: this activity involves the development of new HMI interaction modes and technologies in order to minimise the load and mental strain on controllers, be they in the ATC centre or in the airport tower. The SESAR activities will make use of modern design and development approaches and methodologies such as modularity, service-oriented architecture and adaptive automation. The new HMI interaction modes include the use of in-air gestures, attention control, user profile management systems, tracking labels, virtual and augmented reality, etc.
