In Russia, the 5th generation SU-57 fighter will appear in the future with the control system with the help of the movement of the eye and the voices of the pilot, the head of the Cabin Department of OKB “Dry” Nikita Dorofeyev told about it. His words lead RIA Novosti.
“This is a complex thing. The pupil in a person is constantly moving, scans the space. This is done unconsciously, we ourselves don’t even notice. Nevertheless, there are already prototypes of such a system. After a small workout, you can look to press buttons, choose indication frames (which Displays on multifunction screens in the fighter cabin), “the developer told.
According to him, while the system is worked out on the stand on Earth, but its work is much more complicated in the air. Dorofeyev also spoke about the voice control of the SU-57 interface. He noted that now experts teach the system to recognize the context, and not specific commands so that the pilot in the extreme situation does not remember the exact phrase that must be said.
Developer added that there are two more control options on the aircraft, these are sensory screens with a multi-layer indication and augmented reality, when, for example, relief and ground objects are drawn in poor visibility. The system will be combined with the technical vision of the fighter, including infrared chambers.
previously became known that in Russia the creation of a new version of the initially single fighter fifth generation SU-57 began. Double team is intended to manage the new drone “Hunter”.
