Abstract
The G-seat is a device that replicates in a flight simulator the pilot/seat interaction due to aircraft acceleration. The G-suit and seat shaker systems provide important cues to the pilot used in the control of the aircraft. These cues are believed to be particularly significant in high performance tactical aircraft. In order to investigate G-cuing philosophies and drive schemes, a system was developed with capabilities exceeding that of present G- cuing systems, which will allow the determination of how to obtain the maximum benefit from these cuing sources. The Advanced Low Cost G-Cuing System (ALCOGS) embodies the basic somatic capabilities of the first generation G-seat coupled with high response speed and system flexibility. ALCOGS combines G-seat, G-suit, and seat shaker systems into one integrated G-cuing system.Keywords
