LaunchPad with Saab – Human Machine Interface
- 26 May 2026, 17:00-19:30
- Skylten Södra Oskarsgatan 3, 582 73 Linköping (Hybrid)
Linköping developers, designers, and tech builders – this one’s for you!
Join the second LaunchPad session of 2026 with Saab and explore how cockpit interfaces in aircraft like the Gripen are designed for clarity, speed, and decision making under pressure. ✈️
Saab experts will share how visuals, controls, feedback, and information are structured to support situational awareness in demanding environments – and how these principles translate into modern software development, UX design, and human – centered systems.
If you work with software, UX/UI, systems engineering, AI, or product development, this is a rare chance to learn from one of the most advanced engineering environments. 🤖
Come for the insights – stay for the pizza and conversations with the Linköping tech community! 🍕🤝
Online participation is also available, just select online when you register.
