Abstract

Employees of the Department 703 MAI together with employees of Department 741.170 PJSC "Corporation "Irkut"carried out work on the analysis of possibilities of introduction of modern innovative technologies of augmented and virtual reality in the design, production, operation of aircraft and training of aviation personnel. In the course of work, prototypes of two virtual reality sets were developed. As part of the demonstration of the capabilities of augmented reality technology for solving the problems of aircraft operation and aviation personnel training, two mobile applications were developed. Approbation of the presented projects were carried out in MAI and PJSC "Corporation "Irkut". The presented prototypes received the highest rating of the scientific and technical Council of PJSC "Corporation "Irkut", and the interest in implementing such solutions in their production processes was confirmed by manufacturers of aircraft simulators (LLC NPF "SKT"represented by the chief designer), higher educational institutions (MSTU GA represented by the Vice-Rector for research and development), aircraft manufacturers (PJSC "Corporation "Irkut"represented by the Deputy head of the design and training methodology Department) and aircraft operators (PJSC "Aeroflot"represented by the Director of the aviation personnel training Department).
