Visual is the key sensory mode by which a pilot receives the vast majority of the information required to successfully fly the aircraft and accomplish his mission. Visual information is received both directly (viewing through the windscreen, heads-up display and visor) and indirectly (viewing instruments, graphics displays and imaging displays) in a continuous stream. The ability of the pilot to perceive, assimilate and act on this vast amount of visual information greatly depends on the quality of the presentation of this information. There are many factors that can reduce the effective visual capability of the pilot. It is the purpose of this Lecture Series to present many of these factors and discuss their effect on vision and visual performance. This Lecture Series, sponsored by the Aerospace Medical Panel of AGARD, has been implemented by the Consultant and Exchange Programme. Keywords: Visual perception; Pilots (personnel); Cockpits; Display devices; Human factors engineering; France.
