Résumé

The drone industry is diversifying and the number of pilots increasing rapidly. In this context, flight schools need adapted tools to train pilots, most importantly with regard to their own awareness of their physiological and cognitive limits. In civil and military aviation, pilots can train on realistic simulators to tune their reaction and reflexes, but also to gather data on their piloting behavior and physiological states, helping to improve their performance. As opposed to cockpit scenarios, drone teleoperation is conducted outdoors in the field, with only limited potential from desktop simulation training. This work aims to provide a solution to gather pilot behavior in the field and help them increase their performance. We combined advanced object detection from a frontal camera with gaze and heart rate variability measurements. We observed pilots and analyzed their behavior over three flight challenges. We believe this tool can support pilots both in their training and in their regular flight tasks.
