| Our solution uses a common HMI basis for a 500+ user community. Despite this, the "feel at home concept" is strong as the ATCO's customize their environment with an unlimited number of “set-ups” (active filters, window/tool-bar location and shape, fonts, screen brightness, etc.).
Thanks to SkyVisual's flexibility, another key benefit is the possibility to introduce new technology into the ATC system in total transparency for the ATCO's.
Several benefits, as illustrated by a few examples, are related to safety :
- The reactive off-centering (no system latency) of our HMI provides an instant clear screen image and an immediate analysis providing an appreciated working comfort
- The anti-overlap window system (pre-defined rules) and the entry Flight Window that only opens for inbound flights, provide a clear and concise display information eliminating risks of screen overload
- The aircraft vertical movement display permits an immediate ATC response in case of emergencies
- The integrated SMS (Short Message System) contributes to the silent information sharing system and improves the ATCO's concentration
- Various factors also contribute to the clarity of key information displayed to Controllers: icon / window-driven concept, vertical lift display, window transparency, single-click functions, easy window sizing, pop-ups, etc.
- The visual comfort is assured by the "what you modify, what you get" logic in all menu and option adjustments.
To summarize, many short-cuts to reach the right information (contextual menus, auto-hide of non-used scroll bars, hotkeys, sweep button, flip-flop, etc.) and the customization possibilities to meet individual needs (pop-up window principle with open set-up rules), contribute to a considerable increase in ATCO uptime. |
