Adaptive Aiding for Human-Computer Control: Final Report and Future Directions for Research

Abstract

The recent history of the project is presented in summary form, with references to previous reports. The most recent simulation environment, RESCUE, developed for the study of human performance within an adaptively aided task environment, is reviewed with particular emphasis placed on the current implementation of RESCUE. Additionally, code enhancements of the RESCUE environment designed to increase system reliability are reviewed. The largest segment of the report discusses the fundamental adaptive aiding issues followed by unresolved research questions pertaining to the use of this form of aiding within complex task environments. Specific issues involved with the utilization of adaptive aiding technology within the DARPA Pilot's Associate Program are identified and discussed. Finally, a possible mapping of unresolved research issues in adaptive aiding to the simulation environment discussed in this document is proposed.
