Abstract

This report contains a transcript of the invited lectures comprising day 1 of a Spatial Orientation Symposium in honor of Dr. Frederick Guedry, held at the Institute of Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC) in Pensacola, FL on 19-20 November 2010. The conference was sponsored by the Coalition Warfare Program of the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics. It was organized by Drs. Angus Rupert and Ben Lawson (USAARL) and Drs. Anil Raj and Ken Ford (IHMC).
