Abstract
A collision avoiding system and a method of safety flying is proposed in this paper for Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAV). The UAV accesses the data from various sensors mounted on board and thus calculates the risks factors for any impending collision. An algorithm for decision making in order to avoid collision is presented in this paper as a pseudo code. Based on the measured as well as estimated risk factors, corrective measures are taken to avoid collision. A stateless collision avoidance system is used for rapid analysis of data that does not have significant correlation between them. For enhanced safety, a synthetic vision system is provided along with the remotely located pilot at the ground station and a communication link is established between the two.

Traffic and Flight Guidance Depiction on a Synthetic Vision System Display: The Effects of Clutter on Performance and Visual Attention Allocation

TL;DR: This work flew a synthetic vision system (SVS) display, through a terrain and traffic-rich environment in a high fidelity flight simulator, and examined the effects of the resulting clutter from overlay on routine flight performance, SVS traffic detection, and response to off-normal events, as these were mediated by visual scanning measures of attention allocation.

Effect of pathway-in-the-sky and synthetic terrain imagery on situation awareness in a simulated low-level ingress scenario

TL;DR: Data from the Air Force Safety Center indicate that CFIT accidents occur in a wide variety of missions and aircraft, and despite inclusion of GPWS, losses show little sign of decreasing.
