| Abstract: | The “ReDSim”, short for research and development simulator, is a simulator with a fully equipped cockpit. It is used by the ZHAW as well as external researchers. The system consists of a cockpit side and a simulation side. The simulation side defines the model and sends the data via user datagram protocol. This data will be processed by the cockpit side. The Cockpit Instrument Framework on the cockpit side will set up the displays in the cockpit and constantly deliver data to the instruments. There is one aircraft multifunctional display to choose from. To increase flexibility, the Cockpit Instrument Framework was updated during project work and requirements for the new instruments have been determined. Those instruments were implemented and tested in the bachelor thesis. The newly designed instruments focused on providing an accurate visualization of the systems that the pilots are used to operate with as well as experimental implementations. A human-centred evaluation has shown that pilots tend to like new designs combined with some traditional instruments. They quickly got accustomed to it and went on flying circuits with the new instruments. The evaluation was done on a modified PA28 because no other flight model was provided. Based on these findings a manual was written which provides information and instructions about the cockpit side of the research and development simulator. |
