Manprint Findings from the OT II Test of the Remotely Piloted Vehicle System (Aquila)

Abstract

The test design plan emphasized the three MANPRINT areas of human factors engineering, safety, and health hazards as part of issue 4. Other MANPRINT areas were assessed as part of a thorough investigation and included training, manpower, and organizational structure. The purpose of the assessment was to investigate the MANPRINT areas in order to identify MANPRINT findings leading to system refinements. The assessment was conducted in support of USAOTEA by the U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI) Fort Hood Field Unit. Several types of data collection techniques were used in order to gather MANPRINT data. Data collection techniques included critical task crew performance measures, critical task assessment interviews, onsite observation, structured interviews covering test data requirements, and comment and opinion data from test participants. The use of multiple data collection techniques provided the avenues of investigation into the broad MANPRINT areas to ensure a full analysis.
