The author's objective was to identify alternative cockpit display media which allow fighter pilots to receive flight critical data in an 'eyes out' mode, without dependency on the already overloaded auditory and visual senses. An intra-cockpit communication system based on the tactile/cutaneous sense is considered. If, for example, airspeed or angle-of-attack (AOA) data can be reliably communicated to the pilot through a cutaneous tactile stimulation device, the pilot could be constantly aware of his energy state without coming into the cockpit to read his displays. A method of information presentation based on electrotactile stimulation of the sense of touch is discussed.
