Project Summary

This project seeks to develop Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) for detection, monitoring and mitigation of stress under differing states of fatigue. Validate technologies that unobtrusively measure underlying physiological and psychological responses to stress.

Defence Relevance

Failing to monitor and prepare personnel for stressful and difficult tasks is a threat to the operational capability of Defence and law enforcement. The near-term outcome will be a proof-of concept for an integrated system for detection, monitoring and mitigation of stress that involves minimally invasive sensors.
