Sensory Evaluation and Decision Science

Abstract

This project conducts applied research to revolutionize the manner in which airmen optimize the capabilities of Air Force systems, including remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) and adaptive teams of airmen and machines. Research optimizes airman situational awareness and cognitive performance, improves the airman-machine interface, and seamlessly integrates warfighters with their weapon systems across air, space, and cyber domains. Research is conducted in four focus areas: applied neuroscience; human role in semiautonomous systems; battlespace visualization; and battlespace acoustics. The applied neuroscience area develops technologies to enhance airman-airman and airman-machine collaborations and system interactions in distributed decision-making environments. The human role in semiautonomous systems area develops new control/display concepts and technologies to optimize Air Force platform capabilities. The battlespace visualization area advances the science and technology (S&T) 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.
