Abstract:
Wearable Augmented Reality (AR) combines research in AR, mobile/ubiquitous computing, and artificial intelligence in which an optical see-through Head Mounted Display (HMD) facilitates multi-modal projection of, contextually relevant and computer generated visual and auditory data over physical real-world environments. Through advancements in Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI), wearable AR has capabilities to amplify human cognition by delivering on-demand assistance/training, especially in austere and extreme situations ranging from emergency medical first response and Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) to public health relief efforts in response to mass casualty events. This Intelligence Amplification (IA) intervention has potential to augment human cognition while wearers naturally interact with their environment. However, research gaps must be addressed to achieve an adaptive and wearable AR BCI that augments human cognition and consequently, improves human performance. This paper presents an innovative wearable AR HMD with an objective for improving human working/long term memory, reduce cognitive load; and contextually adapt to an individual’s environment/cognitive/physiological state
