This grant from the Defense Sciences Office (DSO) at DARPA is for developing innovative tools for Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI). Its purpose is to provide operators with sufficient situational awareness (SA) of system status and the environment, enabling them to adapt systems in unexpected situations. EDGE seeks HMI design capabilities that are fast, quantifiable, repeatable, and manageable for seamless integration into broader system design processes. Proposed research must achieve revolutionary advances in HMI development, specifically excluding evolutionary improvements. This initiative aims for significant breakthroughs in HMI science and capabilities.

| Description: | The Defense Sciences Office (DSO) at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is soliciting innovative research proposals for developing the tools necessary to create, measure, and test Human Machine Interfaces (HMI) that provide enough situational awareness (SA) of a system’s processes and status and of the operational environment so the operator can adapt the system in unexpected situations. EDGE seeks design capabilities that will be fast, quantifiable, repeatable, and manageable enough for HMI concept design, development, and testing to be integrated into the larger system’s design processes. Proposed research should investigate innovative approaches that enable revolutionary advances in science, devices, or capabilities that enable HMI development. Specifically excluded is research that primarily results in evolutionary improvements to the existing state of practice. |
