Why Hinfact · Science & research
From the labto the line.
Hinfact grew out of the neuroergonomics laboratory of ISAE-SUPAERO, where researchers have studied how pilots perceive, decide and act for more than 25 years.
Our roots
25+
Years of human factors research in aviation.
Before any software, there was a question: how do people perform when things get complex? Hinfact was built to take the answers out of the laboratory.
- 2003
The laboratory
The neuroergonomics laboratory of ISAE-SUPAERO starts studying pilot behaviour and performance.
- 2017
Hinfact
Three researchers and two ISAE-SUPAERO alumni found Hinfact to bring that science to training.
- Today
In operations
The same rigour runs in training centres, airlines and simulators, on four continents.
What we study
How people performwhen it gets complex.
- 01
Where pilots look
Eye movements and attention: how the instruments and the outside world are scanned.
- 02
Workload and performance
How peaks of demand, a failure or a change of plan, shape what a crew can do.
- 03
Deciding and switching tasks
How attention is shared between flying, navigating, communicating and managing systems.
- 04
Training that changes behaviour
How targeted training moves competencies, measured before and after.

Into the products
From researchto everyday tools.
Each product carries part of the laboratory’s work into the field.
Hinfact Sense
Objective human signals.
Gaze, voice and fatigue measured in the simulator, with the lab’s methods.
Hinfact Training
Competencies, evidenced.
Competency-based assessment and analytics built on human factors research.
Hinfact Safety & Ops
A human factors lens.
Every event read through the people involved: what they saw, understood and did.
