See you at Framadagar 2023!

Stand A31-33
We are proud our origins are at the universities in Iceland where we have maintained a relationship with the community since our inception. That includes our annual participation in Framadagar, a networking event between students and leading Icelandic companies. Companies such as ourselves search for new talent to assist in shaping the future of both their successes. It's an environment that builds company awareness and fosters guidance for young professionals - like yourself.
Keeping with our connection in aviation, we have partnered with Isavia ANS for Framadagar 2023. Learn what air traffic control is and how the Controllers operate with software built for safety in the skies, developed and designed by Software Developers.
Below are some of the people who have started their careers at Tern Systems by working with us on Summer projects and Master's theses. These projects have real value and talented people from local universities routinely become essential members of our diverse teams.

SUMMER PROJECTS
Communications Simulator Enhancement & Integration
Orion Pilot is Tern Systems air traffic simulator, used for training air traffic controllers. When training air traffic controllers, a Voice Communication System is used between trainee and trainer to simulate radio communications with flights and other phone communication. Normally, the voice communication system requires separate hardware and display. The aim of this project is to both improve and integrate the voice communication system developed by Tern into Orion Pilot to improve the usability of the product for the trainers, as well as removing the need for separate hardware for voice communications on training workstations.
Exercise Management System for Orion Airport Driving Simulator
Orion Driver, our Airport Driving Simulator, is a highly realistic and state-of-the-art driving simulator within the Air Traffic Management industry. It is currently being used at Keflavík Airport and has secured interest at multiple large and small airports - large and small - in Europe. This project aims to build a web-based exercise and training management system that would significantly increase functionality. This includes providing the instructor with the capability to schedule training and track important performance indicators for each exercise and student.
Visualisation of high level winds on Polaris ASD
Polaris Area Situational Display (ASD), is the main interface to Tern Systems Air Traffic Management (ATM) System. This project will focus on visualising high level winds from GRIB2 format (3D vector with position, magnitude and direction) by adding a map layer on top of the map already within Polaris which can be toggled on and off. Visualisation of both air traffic and weather forecast data within the same system increases situational awareness which results in better and quicker decision making.
