Abstract
Mixed Reality are considered enabling technologies for the Industry 4.0 paradigm. In this paper, the cockpit control device design and evaluation system based on mixed reality technology is established, which is suitable for rapid iteration in the initial stage of civil aircraft design. It can provide aircraft designers with a more efficient and realistic design environment. It also provides a user evaluation environment, allowing pilots to participate in the cockpit design at an early stage of the design. According to the operation task and operation pattern classifying of common control equipment in the cockpit, also determines the control unit from the industrial model to virtual reality model of the conversion process. The conversion process of the control device from industrial model to virtual reality model is determined. The paper also puts forward the design mode of double coordinate system based on design eye reference point and controller panel, which is suitable for the design process of civil aircraft cockpit. For the system, we also conducted a preliminary user research and analysis. The experimental and analysis results are used for the subsequent system design and upgrading. It provides useful guidance for the design of human-computer interaction interface in mixed reality environment.
