Nasa made eyeglasses through fog

NASA has successfully produced augmented reality goggles. This glass would allow pilots to "see" through fog, by tracking the pilot's head movement, then displaying their visions of the runway, air traffic control tower and aircraft. Another in range - an invaluable tool when the fog encircles the airport. Even when the pilot turns his head, the tough guy can act in real time to ensure that the pilot is not disoriented.

The device includes GPS (Global Positioning System), sensor
variable display, head-mounted display (HWD), and image processor.

Trey Arthur, an electronics engineer at NASA's Langley Research Center in Virginia, told the Innovation News Daily : "If there were fog and the pilot could not see the towers or the entire airport, Enhanced eye wear will help increase judgment and judgment.

Normally, if the pilot is not familiar with the airport, they must stop and open the map. But with this display, every route is digitized, the pilot will be told all the useful information such as the other planes are present on the road, where they need to be, where the runway is located. how far they fly and the nearest landing. "

Air traffic controllers have made it possible to prevent disasters. Many aviation catastrophes have occurred just because the runway was covered by fog. The worst accident in aviation history occurred in Tenerife in 1977. A jet-fueled passenger plane was speeding up to take off and crashed into a plane filled with passengers on the runway. , killing 583 people.

According to the Innovation News Daily , some pilots are experimenting with glass pilots in the US. NASA expects commercial operators to rapidly roll out this new technology to the aviation industry worldwide.
