APPROACH
Solutions • Unified Disparate Apps into Single Modern Flight Simulator Pre-flight inspection Systems Lessons Emergency Procedures Map Reading BIOMetrics
AGILE Iterative Philosophy
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1 SECURITY AND PRIVACY Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Encryption Locally Stored Data: No Personally Identifiable Information (PII) Unique User Accounts (optional CAC or military email
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.2 FIDELITY AND EXTENSIBILITY Not Designed to Compete with multi-million dollar flight sims Emphasis on Accurate Training Affordable, Portable, Modular (PS5, PC, VR, AR, Tablet…)
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.3 STUDENT PERFORMANCE TRACKING Analysis of Data to Create Predictive Analysis Capabilities Personalized Each Student’s Daily Coursework and Flights
FUTURE WORK
Move Training to The Left • Send Student Pilots an iPad and HMD with Award Letter • Begin Training Immediately
Using VR for NASA Space Walks
