The Air Force regards Spatial Disorientation (SD) and loss of situational awareness (SA) as contributing factors in operational Class A ($1 M in aircraft loss and/or pilot fatality) aircraft mishaps. Multisensory systems have been developed to enhance the aircraft altitude information to the pilot. The systems incorporate multisensory aids including helmet-mounted symbology and tactile and audio cues. Two systems have been prototyped and demonstrated in the Air Force Research Laboratory. The technology could have application in the rotary-wing brownout program. This paper discusses the development of two systems and a potential application including an augmented cognition application. Unlike automatic ground collision avoidance systems, these systems do not take over the aircraft if a pre-set altitude is broached by the pilot; rather, these multisensory systems provide complementary attitude cues to the pilot via the tactile, audio. and visual systems that allow the pilot to continue flying through disorienting conditions.
