SCIENTIFIC AND RESEARCH OFFER / Katedra Awioniki i Sterowania

The Department of Avionics and Control Systems has research facilities enabling the implementation of didactic tasks and research. The Avionics Equipment Certification Laboratory, the Aviation Equipment Laboratory, the Laboratory of Professional Predisposition of Operators, and the Laboratory of Performing Prototype Avionics Systems are just some of them. In addition, a number of measuring and research equipment is supported by the research and teaching work of the Department. Cooperation with aviation centers in the country and abroad supports the development of knowledge in the field of the Department's profile, and other units of the University (Aviation Training Center, Academic Gliding Center in Bezmiechowa) cooperate in the field of tests in real conditions.

As part of the cooperation, the Department of Avionics and Control Systems offers and gives the opportunity to take advantage of the scientific and research offer. If you are interested and have any questions, please contact us.

Thermo-barochamber:

The study of the influence of temperature (-70 - + 150ºC) and pressure (100hPa - 1200hPa absolute) includes electronic devices (possibility of connecting inside electric signals and power supply), the possibility of configuring the stand with the use of two conduits with a diameter of 100mm. Working space 600x500x500mm.

Simulators:

Pilot behavior research, operator professional qualification assessment, split attention testing and more.

Programmable measurement systems for aviation:

Measurement systems used to measure flight parameters of manned and unmanned airplanes. Control systems with built-in measurement systems, such as AHRS, GPS, ADC. Our department is ready to establish research cooperation in the implementation of projects related to the broadly understood control of aircraft, flight parameters measurements, identification of objects of various configurations and various equipment. There is a possibility to perform both design and development works, flight tests and Hardware In the Loop tests on dedicated test stands.

Modular Pressure Controller and Calibrator – PACE6000:

It enables testing the properties of pressure transducers in the range (100-1100hPa), especially in aviation devices.

Station for testing professional predispositions of operators - WOMBAT & DuoWOMBAT:

Laboratory of professional predispositions of operators is based on the WOMBAT computer system by Aero Innovations, which determines psychotechnical predispositions in terms of resistance to stress, concentration skills, manual skills and decision-making skills in the machine control process. It was created to determine the capabilities of aircraft pilots, having a direct impact on the safety and efficiency of machine control and auxiliary devices. It is also used to determine natural predispositions to control special machines. The system enables individual (WOMBAT-CS) and team tests (cooperation in the crew - Duo-WOMBAT).
