Artificial intelligence (AI) holds great promise for enabling Europe to sustainably manage growing air traffic and an increasingly complex airspace. But to unleash its full potential requires making AI applications explainable and with that trustworthy, says Mobyen Uddin Ahmed, Associate Professor in Artificial Intelligence/Computer Science at Mälardalen University, Sweden, and project coordinator of ARTIMATION.

SESAR partners validate speech recognition tech for tower controllers
|
SESAR 3 JU member, DLR, together with air traffic controllers from AustroControl and Oro Navigacija, recently validated an assistant-based speech recognition system to support controllers working in future multiple remote tower centres. The validations are part of the project "Digital Technologies for Tower" (PJ05-W2-97 DTT), which is developing new technologies for airport towers, particularly in the area of remotely controlling multiple airports and innovative human-machine interfaces.

SESAR 3 JU members test satellite-based precision aircraft landing
|
Late last year, SESAR JU members and partners of the DREAMS large-scale demonstration project conducted live trials of a series of satellite-enabled solutions at Twente Airport in The Netherlands. While the primary focus was enhancing arrival operations, the trials also allowed researchers to fine-tune the technology underpinning satellite-based precision approaches.
