Submission + - Heathrow trials AI controlled runway with £2.5m 'digital tower laboratory' (itpro.co.uk)

mumbletethys writes: Traffic controllers at Heathrow are trialling AI tech in an attempt to see if they could run the proposed third runway without a control tower. The hope is that AI can help human controllers land more planes during difficult conditions.

Footage is fed into the AI platform called AIMEE via 20 UHD 4K cameras before using machine learning to interpret images and inform controllers once a runway has been cleared.
