The main objective of the ASCENT project is to implement the concepts and define other novel functions up to a functional demonstration (pilot in the loop simulation when relevant), in order to validate the functional requirements.

The enhance ASCENT shall serve as a pioneering platform environment for testing possible future technologies that the aeronautical industry is now demanding. It will introduce innovative concepts and ideas that might change (or at least modify) the operation of the simulators and pilot/crew training procedures existing nowadays.
