Spatial Disorientation in Aviation

The first book to cover the entire spectrum of spatial disorientation in flight. This book examines the long history of spatial disorientation in flight, describes the movements of aircraft in mathematical detail, and explains how these movements can conspire to fool human sensory systems. It also examines the visual mechanisms that contribute to perceptions of self motion, describes the contribution of psychological factors to spatial disorientation and defines the types of visual and nonvisual illusions pilots experience in flight.

This book constitutes the documentation of the results achieved within a proirity program on spatial cognition established by the German Science Foundation (DFG) in 1996 involving 13 research groups in Germany and leading scientists from abroad. The 22 revised full papers included were first presented during a colloquium in fall 1997 and then went through a second round of thorough reviewing. The book is organized into three parts on spatial knowledge acquisition and spatial memory, formal and linguistic models, and navigation in real and virtual worlds. All in all the book is a unique report on the state-of-the art in the interdisciplinary research field of spatial cognition and its potential applications.
