    AFRL neurotechnology partnership aims to accelerate learning, pilot training

    The Individualized Neural Learning System, or iNeuraLS, is a new augmented learning platform that will enable rapid learning by closed-loop modulation of cognitive states during skill acquisition. Essentially, the AFRL team seeks to develop a capability that will give Airmen the ability to rapidly acquire knowledge and skills on the fly through direct brain interfaces with the help of neurotechnologies.
  • Second Lt. Matthew Demarco, 14th Student Squadron student pilot, operates the virtual reality flight simulation equipment while Lt. Col. Christopher Harris, 41st Flying Training Squadron chief pilot and director of innovation flight, instructs him Feb. 11, 2020, on Columbus Air Force Base, Miss. In the VR simulation students can practice everything from starting up the aircraft to landing it. The ability to use VR tools extends the students familiarity with the aircraft they are going to fly before they step foot in it. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Jake Jacobsen)

    14th FTW innovation flight augments pilot training through VR technology

    Columbus Air Force Base’s Innovation flight has continued their efforts to integrate virtual reality technology into pilot training creating quality pilots for the Air Force faster.
  • USecAF visits Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas

    Donovan: Readiness, force lethality begins with training

    Under Secretary of the Air Force Matthew P. Donovan, the second highest ranking civilian in the Department of the Air Force, visited Sheppard on Feb. 14, 2019, to see how the Air Force’s largest and most diverse technical and undergraduate pilot training base is employing technology to train today’s Airmen for tomorrow.
  • 80th FTW Innovation Lab incorporates mixed reality into pilot training

    Pilot training moving at the speed of innovation

    The implementation of virtual and augmented realities by the 80th Flying Training Wing is creating a portfolio of tools that allows instructor and student pilots alike to enhance the learning experience within the Euro-NATO Joint Jet Pilot Training program, the world’s only internationally manned and operated combat pilot training program.
  • AETC's CMSgt Gudgel visits Sheppard

    Gudgel: Industrial Age way of teaching giving way to innovation

    Chief Master Sgt. Juliet Gudgel, AETC command chief master sergeant, said Jan. 31, 2018, during a three-day visit to North Texas that Sheppard AFB is leading the charge on challenging the status quo, training Airmen in a different and meaningful way, and employs equipment and innovation in a way that creates a new and exciting experience for new Airmen entering the Air Force. It’s the new process of developing Mach-21 Airmen using 21st century tools and technology.
