An Investigation of the Use of Steady-State Evoked Potentials for Human Performance and Workload Assessment and Control.

Abstract

This report describes the status of this AFOSR sponsored research program during the reporting period. This research program is designed to examine high frequency (40-60 Hz) Steady-State Evoked Potentials as a tool for providing information about human sensory and performance capability. In particular, a measure of relative transmission time through the visual system is to be evaluated. This report details the configuration of the test and data collection facility and reports the results of control and pilot studies. Some of this data suggests that there may be a frequency 'masking' effect in the visual system when multiple visual frequencies are simultaneously presented. If this is verified, it may represent a previously unobserved basic property of the visual system response to flashing stimuli.
