With our neurometrics toolbox we can monitor stress, attention, vigilance, workload and training level.
What we can do
In partnership with BrainSigns, we have developed the capacity of objectively assess, also in real time, the mental states of operators (e.g. air traffic controllers, pilots, drivers) while they are doing their job.
Vigilance
Training
Engagement
Mental Workload
Stress
Attention
What you can use it for
To support the design of new tools or procedures (comparing the impact of alternative solutions on the mental state)
To monitor in real time operators’ workload and stress levels
To trigger adaptive automation solutions able to adapt to operators’ needs (e.g. providing help when the workload is too high)
To enhance training, enabling a more precise assessment of trainees’ progresses
Benefits
As compared to the traditional means used to measure those factors (e.g. questionnaires, observation, secondary tasks) our approach has several advantages:
It is Objective
It provides High accuracy and time resolution
It does not interfere with the working activity
It is Customizable and scalable
How we do it
Electroencephalography
Heart rate variability
Galvanic Skin Response
We analyse operators’ brain activity and body reactions, using different techniques.
What you get
We can help you to
Cockpit
-
- Steer the design of new technologies for pilots, like touchscreens, Head Up Displays or Head Mounted Displays
- Assess the impact of new technologies and procedures on pilots’ performance
- Adapt training to trainees’ cognitive load
Automotive
-
- Investigate the impact of new assistive technologies on drivers’ attention, vigilance and risk taking attitude
Air Traffic Management
-
- Estimate sector capacity including workload as a relevant metric
- Comparing alternative airspace designs, analysing which one generates less workload and stress on controllers
- Assess the benefit/impact of new technologies on controllers’ performance
- Measure the impact of new procedures on operators and coordination between teams
Industry 4.0
-
- Measure the benefits of new machines/interfaces on workers’ performance
- Integrate physical ergonomics methods (e.g. RULA) with analysis of workload, fatigue, and vigilance
