Human Sensation & Perception in Aviation

Catalog description

Examines how the human senses transform stimulus patterns of physical energy into the neural codes that become our perceptions of the world. Vision, audition, smell, taste, touch, balance, and phenomena common to all sensory modalities, such as feature enhancement, inhibition, adaptation, and stages of neural coding will be studied. This course will provide a basis for the understanding of these perceptual capabilities as components in Artificial Intelligence in aviation/aerospace systems.
