Client

• DARPA
• Mission (from DARPA website)The mission of
  this DARPA program is to extend, by an order of
  magnitude or more, the information management
  capacity of the human-computer warfighting
  integral by developing and demonstrating
  quantifiable enhancements to human performance in
  diverse, stressful, operational environments.
  Specifically, this program will empower one
  humans ability to successfully accomplish the
  functions currently carried out by three or more
  individuals.
• AugCog was brought on board to use the wireless
  motion capture lab to create a virtual
  environment where technology can be tested that
  will aid a soldier in battle.

4
Purpose

• Build a wireless virtual environment that will
  create stress
• Use biometric equipment (EEG, heart rate, etc.)
  to process the data
• Develop applications that would allow the soldier
  to be more effective in a high stress situation.
• Research (and develop) sensors and applications
  to learn more about the capabilities and
  possibilities in the field of biofeedback.
