Cover shot

Alright, we've got an image on the cover of Aviation Week! The image shows Saab's remote air traffic control system.

Basically, you put eight cameras on the top of a high mast or other similar, and simulate the view of a normal flight control tower by projecting a 360° view from these cameras inside a remote control room, that can be far away from the mast and airport. The control room also contains the equivalents of normal flight control system. The image shows this room, with the projected 360° view from eight projectors onto a surrounding screen, with a man in the center pulpit.



Here's the original image. It's also in our web portfolio, where there's also another view of the room from above. Thanks Jonas at Saab for pointing this out for me!
