THOR makes it possible for students to train more often in realistic situations, at reduced costs, without straining existing resources.
Instructors create exercises in minutes. AI pilots respond realistically without coordination and sessions are recorded for detailed review.
THOR adds remote, AI-powered simulation between existing sessions. Students get more hands-on practice without increasing simulator hours.
No hardware and no workflow changes. THOR runs in any browser and fits seamlessly into your current training environment.
THOR lowers per-student training costs while increasing overall effectiveness, with more training, and reduced reliance on pilot actors and fixed schedules
Instructors can monitor students performance and review detailed session logs. Custom scenarios allow full control over traffic, weather, and airspace to match training goals.
THOR allowed me to practice realistic scenarios from home, it made learning much easier and made me more confident in the basics of area control,
After a couple sessions I caught myself thinking like a controller outside of training, which never happened before.
THOR bridges the gap between theory and the tower. Students stop memorizing and start thinking.
THOR is a centralized, web-based simulator designed for air traffic control (ATC) education and training. It is a supplementary tool for existing training environments, increasing access to practical exercises for students and simplifying the creation of training scenarios for instructors. By using THOR, training can be conducted independently of location, and instructors can create exercises for students more efficiently than with previous methods. This is a new approach to a training process that has historically been rigid and expensive.
All current ATC training solutions are location-based and require large-scale setups at a training facility. This process is costly, time-consuming, and requires students and instructors to be in the same place at the same time. THOR, however, is the first centralized, remote solution, requiring only an internet connection for training. It is not a competitor but a supplement to existing systems, offering students greater flexibility and making training more cost-effective.
THOR uses artificial intelligence to simulate the behavior of pilots during training exercises. Instead of relying on human pilots, the system creates AI pilots with unique characteristics. Each AI pilot is programmed with its own strengths, weaknesses, and a specific voice for communication, making the training scenarios feel more realistic for the student.
No, THOR is not intended to be a competitor to existing systems. It is designed as a supplement that provides students with great flexibility in their training. It also makes it easier for instructors to create their own. THOR helps to ensure that practical sessions with an instructor are used more effectively.
