WF3.1 - MULTISPECTRAL IMAGE PHOTOPLETHYSMOGRAPHY FOR REMOTE CARDIOVASCULAR SENSING
Abstract
Abstract
Remote physiological assessment holds promise for healthcare and human computer interfaces. Imaging photoplethysmography utilizes cameras to measure variations in light absorption corresponding with the cardiac cycle. We present the development of and improvements resulting from the spectral characteristics of the remotely-measured blood volume pulse signal.
WF3.2 - ENHANCING OPERATOR PERFORMANCE, SAFETY, AND MONITORING THROUGH ACTIVE OPTICAL DRIVER STATE SENSING AND AUTOMATION SUPPORT
Abstract
Abstract
Vehicle drivers experience complex, continually evolving operational environments and task complexity, completely analogous to military analysts or operators. New machine assistance and automation technologies change the role and responsibility of driver/operators. The paper presents trends in photonic systems which can enhance operator performance and safety.
WF3.3 - PERIPHERAL NERVE STIMULATION TO AUGMENT HUMAN ANALYST PERFORMANCE
Abstract
Abstract
Transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tVNS) over the cervical vagal nerve and transdermal trigeminal nerve stimulation (tTNS) were examined to determine the effects of two different forms of peripheral nerve stimulation on human analyst performance.
WF3.4 - PHOTOBIOMODULATION TO AUGMENT HUMAN ANALYST PERFORMANCE
Abstract
Abstract
This presentation will discuss potential applications for using photobiomodulation to enhance performance in Air Force-specific career fields such as intelligence analysts. We will present key research studies performed in this area and discuss strengths and limitations.
