The AI air traffic control that could eliminate wasted time on the tarmac for travellers
Nasa has launched a new program that could one day eliminate traffic at the world's busiest airports. The agency plans to create a more efficient method of information sharing, moving away from two-way radio communication toward a computer-based system that connects everybody involved in arrivals and departures. This effort aims to more precisely coordinate an airplane's movements, and over the next five years, Nasa and the Federal Aviation Administration will conduct research and field tests to facilitate the transition. Nasa's Next Generation Air Transportation System plans to use computers to streamline information between air traffic controllers, managers, and flight crews. This would connect everybody involved in arrivals and departures, allowing for more precise coordination of the plane's movement.
