Simulated helicopter flights

The cosinuss° monitoring solution was extensively tested in simulated helicopter flights at the Technical University of Munich. To create a scenario as close to reality as possible, the vibrations of the flight were transmitted directly through the seat to the test person in the simulator. The test person held his head directly against the headrest, which was connected to the “shaker”. There was hardly any attenuation by seat padding.

Pattern recognition algorithms were used to analyze the recorded data. Results show that movements such as vibrations of the helicopter cabin during air rescue missions do not significantly affect the quality of the cosinuss° patient monitoring solution.
