Abstract: A device for prompting a scan pattern. In many circumstances it is important that an individual be able to follow a learned scan pattern in highly stressful situations. It is therefore important that an individual be taught a particular scan pattern in a way that is most likely to be remembered by a user in these stressful situations. A pilot flying by instruments must appropriately scan the instruments and control the aircraft in accordance with information obtained from the instruments. An improper scanning pattern can cause the pilot to lose control of the aircraft. Consequently, a device that utilizes multiple sensory inputs will more quickly and permanently impress a scanning pattern on a user. Here, a flight instrument scanning pattern is prompted by this device, which selectively illuminates each instrument in the desired scanning pattern to attract a user's attention to that particular instrument.
