YOUTH - Development of an Optionally Piloted Aircraft Simulation Environment

EF 2019-20 · 2019-05-20

Résumé
An optionally-piloted aircraft (OPA) is essentially a human-supervised autonomous aircraft. The pilot in command (PIC) sits in the seat of a normal manned aircraft that has been modified to be flown autonomously. The PIC supervises the flight of the aircraft and takes control when required to by the supervisory control system. This simulator will be used to explore the feasibility of training an expert system and studying the interaction between the autonomous system and a pilot. Real flight operations will be studied including search and rescue and surveillance. Unmanned aircraft operating truly autonomously could play an important part in better management of resources and the environment.

Description (French)
Un aéronef à pilotage optionnel (APO) est essentiellement un aéronef autonome sous surveillance humaine. Le pilote aux commandes est assis dans le siège d'un aéronef avec équipage normal, qui a été modifié pour être piloté de façon autonome. Le pilote aux commandes supervise le vol de l'aéronef et prend les commandes lorsque le système de contrôle de supervision l'exige. Ce simulateur servira à explorer la faisabilité de la formation d'un système expert et à étudier l'interaction entre le système autonome et un pilote. Les opérations aériennes réelles seront étudiées, y compris la recherche et le sauvetage et la surveillance. Les aéronefs sans pilote opérant de manière véritablement autonome pourraient jouer un rôle important dans une meilleure gestion des ressources et de l'environnement.
Expected Results
The purpose of IRAP’s Youth Employment Program is to assist in increasing the supply of highly qualified people, promoting the benefits of advanced studies, demonstrating federal leadership by investing in the skills required to meet the needs of the knowledge economy and facilitating the transition of highly skilled young people to a rapidly changing labour market.
