Abstract

In this paper, we implemented a flight posture simulator that intuitively understands aircraft flight posture and visualizes the principle of motion. The proposed system operates the 6 - axis motion platform according to the change of the navigation information and transmits the flight attitude to the simulator using the gyro sensor. A gyro sensor and an acceleration sensor are used together to analyze the attitude of the aircraft. The reason is that the gyro sensor has a cumulative error in the integration process. And the accelerometer sensor was compensated by using the complementary filter because noise was serious due to short term vibration. Using the compensated sensor information, the motion platform is operated by calculating the angle to be transmitted to the 6-axis motor. And visualization result is implemented using OpenGL. The results of this study can be used as teaching materials for students related to aviation in the future.
