Technical Reports of the Research Tasks (II - V) as compiled by each Task Principal Investigator: a. Task II: Mara Aruguete, PI, Use of Non-Lethal Weapons In Crowd Control b. Task III: Sunder Balasubramanian, PI, Laser-based Ultrasound Detection of Unexploded Ordinance c. Task IV: Todd Higgins, PI, The Retention Of AN/PSS-14 Operator Skill Following Standard And Abbreviated Training With Comparisons To Robotically-Controlled Operation d. Task V: Ablo Bah, PI, Suicide Prevention in the Army: Developing A Virtual Experience Immersive Learning Simulation and Expanding Current Efforts On Multivariate Analysis of Suicidal Ideation The four research tasks listed above were all deemed sufficiently successful to receive a second year of funding for continuation work (currently in progress) by Army Research Laboratory and Leonard Wood Institute. The scope of this work has changed during Year II to parallel changing needs and interests expressed by Army commands.
