The research question

How do attention, cognitive load, perception and decision-making affect performance during a military task?

Military Human Factors is the military counterpart of Industrial Human Factors. It examines how personnel interact with information, equipment, interfaces, procedures and the operational environment, identifying overload, omissions, delayed responses, situational-awareness losses and human-system bottlenecks before they become operational errors.

ParticipantsMilitary personnel performing the target operational, training or simulated task.

Measurement follows the task

The technology path shown here is the approved structure for this service. The exact protocol is configured around the research question, environment and participant flow.

01 · BasicEye Tracking Glasses

Real, training and simulator tasks.

02 · AdvancedEye Tracking VR + EEG

Immersive tasks requiring synchronized visual-attention and neurophysiological measurement.

03 · OptionalGSR

Added when the protocol requires physiological activation / stress measurement.

Typical protocol · Military Industry

How this study is executed.

The protocol below reflects the service definition developed for Neuro Garage. Final details are confirmed before execution.

01

Define the military task, information sources, decision points and potential human-system frictions.

02

Execute the task in the real environment, training setting, simulator or VR.

03

Capture visual attention and, when selected, synchronized EEG / GSR across the same task timeline.

04

Identify overload, errors, omissions, response delays, information-prioritization failures, situational-awareness losses and interaction bottlenecks.

05

Translate the evidence into recommendations for procedures, training, interfaces / equipment and task design.
