autopilotcomputer
The autopilot computer, also known as a flight control computer or flight management computer in some contexts, is a sophisticated electronic system used in aircraft and other vehicles to automate flight control operations. Its primary function is to maintain a desired flight path, altitude, speed, and heading without continuous manual input from the pilot or operator. This system processes data from various sensors, including altimeters, airspeed indicators, gyroscopes, and GPS receivers, to understand the vehicle's current state and its position relative to its intended course.
Autopilot computers employ complex algorithms to interpret this sensor data and send commands to the aircraft's
