Dennis Schaefer
Aviation UX Designer & Avionics Interface Specialist
Dennis Schaefer is an aviation UX designer and avionics interface specialist with hands-on experience designing flight-deck displays, detect-and-avoid operator systems, and avionics feature expansions for certified, remotely piloted aircraft.
Flight-deck and avionics UX design
Information architecture, symbology, physical controls, and interaction patterns are designed around the pilot's scan and operational workload.
Detect and Avoid interface design
Remote pilots need clear spatial awareness, collision-risk context, and actionable resolution information without a cockpit window.
Aerospace and unmanned aircraft interface experience
The work spans certified avionics, remote flight operations, and autonomy across multiple aircraft classes.
Understanding aviation as a pilot
As a certified Private Pilot, Dennis brings direct experience with cockpit workflow, flight planning, and human factors.
eVTOL, advanced air mobility and future aviation
Emerging aircraft require interfaces that make automation, energy state, airspace, and system intent legible.
