Warfighter Interfaces
Abstract
This project develops, demonstrates, and readies the transition of technologies to revolutionize the way airmen optimize the capabilities of Air Force systems, including autonomous machines and adaptive teams of Airmen and machines. Improvements in the presentation of operational information to the community of users, from the system operator to the commander, must be developed in step with advancements in the acquisition, storage, and retrieval of information. This project provides the advances in understanding of human cognitive abilities, as well as the utilization of human interfaces, multisensory fusion, high-resolution image displays, and three-dimensional (3D) audio to customize communications and enhance shared understanding across a diverse user community in air, space, and cyber for maximum situational awareness. In FY 2021, Project 635327, Warfighter Interfaces, non-Vanguard efforts and activities will be transferred to PE 0603034F, Persistent Knowledge, Awareness & C2 Tech. Skyborg Vanguard activities under this Project will be consolidated and transferred in FY 2021 from PE 0603456F, Human Effectiveness Advanced Technology Development, to PE 0603032F, Future AF Integrated Technology Demos, Project 630320, Air Force Vanguards. These transfers are part of the Air Force RDT&E BA 03 PE consolidation in order to realign technology areas to better support the National Defense Strategy, Air Force Future Operating Concept and Air Force S&T Strategy, April 2019. This is an administrative realignment and not a new start. The Project and associated non-Vanguard efforts and activities will continue to be executed by the Air Force Research Laboratory Airman Systems Technology Directorate located in Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. This is an administrative realignment for consolidation, and not a new start.
