- This paper describes development of an AI and computer vision-based pilot decision support tool to assist pilots with emergency situations with applicability for a wide range of civil and military aircraft. The work was conducted in collaboration with an industrial partner, The Great Circle Ltd, under NATEP funding (≈ £250,000). The paper demonstrates that the safety of aircraft with analogue instrumentation can be enhanced without costly modifications by applying this technology. The research has matured the technology readiness level of new products developed by our industry partner and aligns with the Aerospace Technology Institute Strategy for advancing single pilot operations.
