  4. Agenda • My Background • Why this subject? • Observations from the X-45 Program • The Rules • The Bottom Line

  5. Why This Subject? • It is critical to the success or failure of the program and ultimately—the success of the planned mission • Results of bad HSI designs

  11. Agenda • My Background • Why this subject? • Observations from the X-45 Program • The Rules • The Bottom Line

  12. The Rules • Operators should be included in the design process from day one • The design process should allow for immediate changes in the HSI • The HSI should be integrated with an accurate simulation • The HSI should be user-configurable

  13. The AFRL/HEC OVI Lab

  14. Agenda • My Background • Why this subject? • Observations from the X-45 Program • The Rules • The Bottom Line

  15. The Bottom Line • Design and implementation tools that allow real-time prototyping and use with a simulation are essential QUESTIONS ???????
