The DARWIN project was presented during the SESAR Walking Tours at Airspace World 2026 (26 to 28 May) in Lisbon, offering visitors an opportunity to learn more about the latest developments in AI-enabled support systems for aviation.
We are pleased to present a new video about the DARWIN project. It highlights the latest progress in developing AI-powered digital assistants and advancing humanâAI collaboration for more automated operations in the future.
A major step towards the future of reducedâcrew and singleâpilot aviation has just taken place near the Slovenia-Italian border. In January 2026, the partners of the SESAR project DARWIN (Digital Assistants for Reducing Workload and Increasing collaboratioN) led by Honeywell Aerospace, successfully wrapped up their second and final series of manned flight tests, confirming the latest advancements of the AIâpowered Introductory Digital CoâPilot (IDCP).
The DARWIN team presented recent work from the project at AIAA SciTech 2026, held from 12 to 16 January 2026 in Orlando, Florida (USA). SciTech is an international forum that brings together aerospace researchers from industry and academia to exchange advances in aviation and space technologies.
The SESAR Innovation Days (SID 2025) will take place from 1â4 December 2025 at Lake Bled, Slovenia. The conference is one of the key European platforms for research and innovation in air traffic management.
Project partners of the SESAR project DARWIN (Digital Assistants for Reducing Workload and Increasing collaboratioN) have successfully completed the first series of manned flight trials to validate the project’s AI-based âIntroductory Digital Co-Pilotâ.
The study on the new teaming display examined how different levels of automation affect collaboration, workload and decision-making processes. (more…)
In the beginning of March, the DARWIN consortium gathered at the Pipistrel facility in Italy.
