Abstract:
The Human Readiness Level (HRL) scale was applied to a high criticality, disruptive, prototype laser-based aviation sensor to evaluate its readiness for human use. Applying HRL to the laser-based aviation sensor accelerated risk identification and provided enough lead time to influence design. Specifically, a protective sensor cover prototype was implemented to address key safety issues. This success demonstrated that the HRL scale is invaluable and should be applied to other technologies.
