Building Laboratories without Limits: Bringing Behavioral and Neurophysiological Measurement to Real and Virtual Environments
Abstract
The major goal of the project was to purchase equipment to form the foundation for a new lab called IMMERSE (Ideas for Merging Measures in Enhanced Reality and Social Environments). IMMERSE is intended to support use-inspired research and educational experiences by employing the latest generation of ambulatory behavioral and neurophysiological measurement tools to study humans where they exist: either in the physical world itself, or in very close approximations to it. Importantly, the equipment purchased through the grant to construct IMMERSE was chosen not only with the intent of studying humans acting in isolation, but also in small groups, as they do in a range of situations, including many that are relevant to military contexts. Combined, IMMERSE facilities provide for an unprecedented level of operational emulation in the research and educational domains to explore questions related, but not limited to, human-human teams, human-machine/unmanned teams (MUM-T), robotics, warfighter effectiveness, cybersecurity, and mental health.
