Sensory Evaluation and Decision Science
Abstract
This project conducts applied research to revolutionize the manner in which the human optimizes the capabilities of Air Force systems, including remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) and adaptive teams of humans and machines. Research optimizes situational awareness, improves the human-machine interface, and seamlessly integrates warfighters with their weapon systems across air, space, and cyber domains. Research is conducted in four focus areas: network-centric collaboration; supervisory control; battlespace visualization; and battlespace acoustics. The network-centric collaboration area develops warfighter interface technologies to enhance human-human and human-machine collaborations and system interactions in distributed decision-making environments. The supervisory control area develops new control/display concepts and technologies to optimize Air Force platform capabilities. The battlespace visualization area advances the science and technology associated with collecting, optimizing, displaying, and assimilating sensory information to enhance warfighter decision-making. The battlespace acoustics area researches human-human and human-machine communications to exploit the use of voice and acoustic data in collaborative, net-centric environments while accounting for the effects of acoustic propagation.
