Lynda Kramer

Bio

Lynda Kramer is a senior research engineer at the NASA Langley Research Center.  She specializes in crew-centered flight deck design techniques for advanced displays aimed at improving aviation safety and efficiency. Technical duties include directing the design, development, testing, and overall integration of the advanced displays into piloted workstations, flight simulators, and flight test aircraft; and, defining, conducting, analyzing and reporting on results of research to evaluate the human/machine interface performance effects. Mrs. Kramer is currently serving as a Principal Investigator for increasingly automated systems research aimed at achieving the optimum level of teaming between pilots and autonomy on the Next Generation Air Transportation System flight deck. The challenge is to develop these human-autonomy teams/systems where the combination of machine learning and human expertise exceeds the performance of either system alone. Prior to her current research, for 20 years, Mrs. Kramer served as a Principal Investigator for eXternal Vision systems, synthetic vision systems, and enhanced vision systems research aimed at improving aviation safety and increasing aviation operations in restricted visibility. She has been an active member (since its inception in December 2006) on the joint international RTCA SC-213/EUROCAE WG-79 Committee which is writing the Minimum Aviation System Performance Standards for Enhanced Vision Systems, Synthetic Vision Systems, Combined Vision Systems and Enhanced Flight Vision Systems applications in the flight deck.  Mrs. Kramer has a M.S., Aerospace Engineering, George Washington University (GWU), 1996 and B.S., Aerospace Engineering, Auburn University, Summa Cum Laude, 1991.
