Human Performance Tech for Mobility & Lethality

Abstract

This Project investigates human performance based information portrayal system design parameters that integrate mobility & lethality considerations (such as cognitive workload, target discrimination and engagement, and fatigue) into training/education tools, mission command platforms, and technologies that help Soldiers more rapidly and efficiently acquire complex skills and make decisions quickly from training through mission planning and execution. Work in this Project directly supports integration of design guidance for multiple PE/Projects including PE 0603118A (Soldier Lethality Advanced Technology) / Project BD7 (Soldier Sys Interfaces/ Integration-Sensor Adv Tech), Project AY9 (Body Armor & Integrated Headborne Advanced Tech), and Project BC9 (Adv Soldier Sensors/Displays AdvTech for Dismounts). Work in this Project complements and is fully coordinated with the Medical Research and Materiel Command under the Military Operational Medicine Research Program as well as Defense Medical Research and Development Program under Military Operational Medicine (JPC-5). This Project also complements and is fully coordinated with work performed across Army, Navy, and Air Force under the Reliance 21 Human Systems Community of Interest: Systems Interfaces & Cognitive Processes. Work in this Project supports key Army needs and leverages the technical research efforts at the Simulation and Training Technology Center to support synthetic training environments. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy, as well as the Office of the Secretary of Defense Close Combat Lethality Task Force. All FY 2020 adjustments align program financial structure to Army Modernization Priorities in support of the National Defense Strategy. Work in this Project is performed by the United States Army Futures Command (AFC).
