NASA tests if simulator movement helps pilots fly better with Mixed-Reality goggles
NCT ID NCT07129876
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how different amounts of simulator motion (no motion, small motion, or full motion) affect how well pilots fly while using a mixed-reality headset. Thirteen healthy pilots completed two flight tasks, and researchers measured their speed and accuracy. The goal was to understand what level of motion is best for training pilots with this technology.
