Using augmented reality in landmine detection

If you happen to be near Texas A&M tomorrow, then you might want to stop by the Department of Industrial & Systems Engineering for a seminar from Dr. Richard T. Stone.  He’ll be talking about the use of augmented reality devices for enhancing human performance in landmine detection.

Stone has developed the Augmented Multisensory Interface Design (AMID) method to direct the design of AR devices by incorporating elements of perception, cognitive engineering, task analysis, system engineering, design process and experimental design principles. During the talk, Stone will detail the experimental process used in his study, including the design of multiples AR devices, a functional landmine detection robot and control system.
