Early Design Validation Process for Flight Deck Display Format

抄録

Technological progress such as glass cockpit has been introduced, however, it may also produce negative effects such as mismatches between pilots and flight deck systems, leading to human errors. Therefore, it is vital to develop adequate display formats aimed at reducing aviation accidents resulting from pilot errors, while contributing to the appropriate coexistence of pilots and automation systems. From the business viewpoint, it also requires to minimize rework in the late design stage, which poses a significant risk of schedule delays to timely introduce the product into the market. Therefore, methodologies and development processes that can finalize requirements specifications in the early design stages are required. In this study, we propose a display format design analysis method to utilize experiment data in the earliest stage and incorporate it to the V shape development process in addition to the early mockup evaluation methodology for risk-resilient display formats.
