Facilities
The Auditory Research Lab in which one current project is the "Evaluation of Intelligibility of Speech Recorded and Transmitted via Bone Conduction Transducers." The intent of this project is to investigate how well listeners can understand speech signals recorded from various skull locations using a bone conduction (contact) microphone. The signals are transmitted to the skull of listeners using a bone vibrator headset.
Human Systems Engineering Lab (HS Eng Lab)
LB 374- Map #1 - The Human Systems Engineering Lab contains Human Learning Performance modeling, UAV simulation, and a Modular Adaptive Interface design and evaluation project.
Technically Advanced Aircraft Performance Lab (TAAP)
The Technically Advanced Aircraft Performance LAB (TAAP) mainly focuses on evaluating new equipment, such as the Automatic Dependent Surveillance- Broadcast (ADS-B) navigation and other computer/Satellite based displays that relieve much of the general aviation cognitive workload. Recent sponsored projects have compared eye tracking (point of regard) in experienced and novice pilots and new training methods, Scenario Based Learning, of TAA instrumentation.
The Human Factors Psychology Vestibular lab studies motion sensitivity and Space Adaptation syndrome.
