Our work on #tDCS as a #fatiguecountermeasure presented at #MHSRS2024 by John Hayes. Here we emphasize the importance of assessing sex-specific preservation of fatigue perceptions and performance of #neuromodulation paradigms.

关于我们
The NeuroErgonomics Lab examines the mind-motor-machine nexus to understand, quantify, and predict human states like stress and fatigue. With these predictions, we are better able to understand human performance while interacting with emerging technologies in safety-critical environments (emergency response, space exploration, and oil and gas). These investigations involve examining the multifactorial causes and consequences of operator stress and fatigue, brain-behavior relationships with changing workforce demographics, and the development of tools that assess operator health and performance. Basic research in our lab focuses on understanding, monitoring, and augmenting human performance using brain-behavior approaches and techniques by advancing neurophysiological mechanisms of human fatigue (physical and cognitive). These approaches are observed particularly under stress and in underserved populations. These efforts provide a foundation for our applied research and technology developments that focus on augmenting and supporting embodied cognition. Through equitable multimodal interface designs, wearable technologies, fluent human-robotic interactions (HRI), brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), and neurostimulation, we are able to set a groundwork that is poised and scaled to transform the future of work, across many critical industries.

Last week at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Undergraduate Symposium, my mentee Abu Syed at the NeuroErgonomics Lab showcased his work on "Leveraging Haptics for Emotion-Driven De-Escalation and Crisis Management in XR Public Safety Training". This was Abu's first foray into the research space and I am proud of the progress he has made as someone new to the field of Human Factors, HCI, and Haptics research. Our overarching objective is to?explore the significance of touch feedback?as a means of?affective communication. Specifically, we aim to inform?emergency responders?and?public safety personnel?about effective?de-escalation strategies?during critical situations. This exciting space holds promise, and we anticipate more foundational outcomes in the coming months. Thanks to Ranjana Mehta for this exciting opportunity to mentor future engineers and scientists.

Members of NeuroErgonomics Lab volunteered at the Engineering Expo on April 19th. Our demonstrations included activities with Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), Eye Gaze, and a Shoulder Exoskeleton. We interacted with Wisconsin-based middle school students visiting UW-Madison for hands-on experiences with engineering projects. Thank you Aakash Yadav, Kieran Nichols, PhD, Jeevan Jayasuriya, and Ronak Mohanty, Ph.D. (order in picture) for creating fun and engaging demos.

UW-Madison Dept. of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISyE) Professor Ranjana Mehta is exploring new methods for assessing trust in automated systems such as human-robot collaborations. In a recent paper published in the journal ACM Transactions on Human-Robot Interaction, Mehta and her graduate students detail how they used brain imaging and eye-tracking to cross-examine human perceptions of trust, illuminate underlying trust-behavior relationships, and uncover differences across sexes in a manufacturing use case. "It's very important that humans and their autonomous teammates play well, that they are fluent in their interactions," says Mehta. "And for that to happen, they need to communicate really well, and trust is a major driver of that communication." https://lnkd.in/gZxAMV-m

NeuroErgonomics Lab would like to introduce its newest members: Dr. Umair Iqbal, Jeevan Jayasuriya, Dr. Ronak Mohanty, and Dr. Kieran Nichols, (order in picture). Dr. Iqbal aims to research fatigue assessment and management, focusing on offshore worker fatigue. Jeevan J. will evaluate the interactive effect of fatigue and altered gravity on sensorimotor and cognitive functions. Dr. Mohanty will contribute to the development of novel multisensory interaction in Extended Reality. Dr. Nichols will focus on evaluating cognitive and motor performance using sensing, cueing, and electrical stimulations. We are excited to build our team as we expand our research in Madison, WI.?
