Abstract:
The present paper introduces the Sensor-Hub, a prototype tool for augmenting the common operating picture and adaptability of distributed teams in safety-critical environments. The Sensor-Hub aims to facilitate the integration and interpretation of data collected directly from humans augmented with sensing capability involved in the situation to produce timely and relevant information on the current functional state of operators, the situation and their environment. Herein, we elaborate on the development and validation of the sensing and interpretation framework, emphasising the key adaptation capabilities that it seeks to enable. Lastly, this paper illustrates three sectors of application of the Sensor-Hub: training of safety-critical team operations, real-time error-prevention and adaptation during operations, and assessment of inter-agent and human-technology interactions.
