Key Findings
Synthetic Vision System (SVS) is going to be an integral part of the Next Generation Air Transportation Systems. Supplemented by enhanced vision system (EVS), the combined system would result in better visibility, leading to greater situational awareness for the pilots. The breadth of SVS products available in the marketplace suggests that the market participants have identified that SVS not only increases the safety and efficiency of aircraft operations, but also minimizes operational errors and pilot workload.
One of the key efforts amongst the aviation industry participants is to make the cockpit smaller and user friendly. For example, touchscreen-based displays are attracting huge interest in the aviation marketplace as the touchscreen capability enables simple human-machine interfaces, allows simpler presentation of system procedures as well as flexible configurations of the cockpit system.
Enhancing communication technology is observed to be one of the key areas of focus. Seamless communication with continuous data streaming from the cockpit could bring in enhanced safety in transport and could also open up opportunities for new technology implementation such as cloud computing and big data analytics for advanced cockpit applications.
Cloud computing could prove to be a major facilitators for cockpit application management in the future. Scalable data storage in the cloud could help in the development of emerging applications like predictive weather forecasting, aircraft equipment monitoring and many more.
