Research to be carried out in the new facility is expected to focus on the development of communications, navigation, surveillance and avionics systems for both manned and unmanned aircraft, as well as decision-support tools and human-machine interfaces for air traffic controllers.
RMIT is already working with Thales Australia in the field of air traffic management.
