AI-Driven Training Takes Center Stage in London

ASTi will attend the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) Flight Simulation Conference 22-23 October at the RAeS headquarters in London, United Kingdom. ASTi experts attending the conference will be Neil Waterman, Commercial Aviation Director; Max Scribner, AI Software Engineer; Dr. Jeremy Goodman, MRAeS; and Gary Pallett, Industry Consultant and former Royal Air Force navigator. All will be ready to discuss and demonstrate the latest in simulated air traffic control environment (SATCE) technology: ASTi's Simulated Environment for Realistic ATC (SERA).

Waterman will deliver a presentation titled, "Use of SATCE with AI Virtual Instructor for the Naval Aviation Training Command" during the "Use of AI and Data in Pilot Training" session at 11:35 a.m. on the 23rd. He is one of four presenters mentioning SATCE as an important emerging technology for pilot training.

ASTi will also host a portable SERA demonstration featuring an Airbus A320 desktop flight simulator. The demo's multiple, real-time training scenarios will allow interested viewers to experience a full ATC radio comms and traffic environment geared specifically for commercial and military pilot training.

ASTi is a sponsor of the RAeS Flight Simulation Conference 2024. Interestingly, Waterman attended this same conference in 2006, where he first heard about the concept of developing an "automated ATC" tool for pilot training. That idea planted the SATCE seed in ASTi's collective conscience, grew into a concerted development effort, and has borne fruit as its successful SERA product.
