The problem of optimizing the information and control field is of high relevance in connection with the issue of ensuring flight safety, which does not lose its relevance to this day. The purpose of this article is to develop a demonstrator of the information and control field of the cockpit of a promising aircraft with a voice control function and to develop an intelligent information system, on the basis of which this information and control field will be tested and tested as part of a crew cockpit universal prototyping bench.

The authors carried out an analysis of modern solutions in the field of building a promising cockpit using the function of controlling the information-control field with the help of voice, on the basis of which it was concluded that it is advisable to use this function in a promising cockpit of an aircraft. The main emphasis in the development of the concept of voice control is on the applicability of this concept in aircraft of the transport category. The main part of the developed intelligent information system is implemented in a high-level language and allows you to quickly and conveniently configure the system and ensure high efficiency in prototyping the information and control field. To work out the concept of voice control, a laboratory demonstrator was developed using the intellectual information system described above, demonstrating the feasibility of advanced voice control functions in relation to the cockpit of a transport category aircraft. This demonstrator was pre-tested with the participation of expert pilots and certification specialists and received a positive assessment. The scientific and technical groundwork obtained as a result of this work can be used in prototyping the information and control field of the cockpit and, in the future, as part of on-board systems after appropriate refinement.

The use of the voice control function in the cockpit of advanced aircraft realizes the potential benefits for aircraft manufacturers, airlines and pilots associated with the optimization of the cockpit information and control field, therefore it is advisable to continue the development and implementation of the voice control function in advanced aircraft cockpits, taking into account the scientific and technical backlog obtained in this work. This work is of great practical importance due to the need to optimize the information and control field, especially in the context of the global trend of creating a single-member cockpit of a transport category aircraft.
