AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 4 (UPI) -- U.S. engineers say they've creating an air traffic control system that will operate without human input, basing flight recommendations on myriad variables.
Researchers are developing an air traffic control system that can track multiple flight locations and changing weather conditions and help controllers optimize traffic flow and air safety.
