Case Study

Human-autonomy teaming for complex aerospace tasks

Calian delivered a research and development project using human-autonomy teaming (HAT) for air traffic controller (ATC) that measured human performance alongside automated systems using artificial intelligence (AI) and voice recognition. This technology has the potential to be used for a range of aerospace command and control (C2) applications, including for NORAD monitoring and space situational awareness operations.
