United StatesDescription
In 2008, the activation of the 711th Human
Performance Wing (711 HPW) within the Air Force Research Laboratory
at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base created the first human-centric
warfare wing to consolidate research, education, and operational
consultation under a single organization. The 711 HPW is composed
of the Human Effectiveness Directorate (711 HPW/RH), the USAF
School of Aerospace Medicine (711 HPW/USAFSAM), and the Human
Performance Integration Directorate (711 HPW/HP).
Mission
The Wing's mission is to advance human
performance in air, space and cyberspace through research,
education and consultation. We support the most critical resource -
the men and women of our operational military forces. From concept
to deployment, we provide the solutions to achieve an optimum
Airman life cycle: acquire, train, equip, enhance and
protect.

Laser Laboratories, Tri-Service Research Laboratory
The Directed Energy Bioeffects Division maintains well over 100 lasers of all pulse widths, wavelengths and powers available to conduct a full range of bioeffects research. The lasers are used in all levels of research from 6.1 to 6.3 and from subcellular to integrated human response.
Laser Threat Simulator, TSRL
The Laser Threat Simulator is an FAA accredited single engine flight simulator which has been modified to incorporate red and green lasers to conduct human use research on pilot performance while being exposed to lasers. The simulator includes a fully functional, two-person, single engine aircraft cockpit and panoramic projection.
Nanomaterial Characterization Laboratory, WPAFB
This laboratory provides analysis of Air Force relevant nanomaterials received or synthesized in-house that have potential inherent toxicity.The laboratory specializes in aqueous and biological solution and system behavior of nanomaterials and has characterization instrumentation. Capabilities include multiple enhanced microscopes for detection of nanomaterial (bench-top electron, two high illumination, confocal, and inverted microscopes), a Zetasizer (charge and solution size), and a scanning UV-visible spectrophometer.
RF Anechoic Chambers, Tri-Service Research Laboratory
In collaboration with the Navy, there are 12 RF Anechoic and static free exposure chambers located at TSRL. These chambers cover the majority of the RF spectrum and vary in size from bench level to whole-human exposure capacity. The chambers are routinely used to examine new bioeffects for pulsed and CW RF frequencies, as well as to test live tissue exposures to new sources and directed energy weapons.

The team performance lab has the ability to be partitioned from one to three lab areas. This provides the flexibility to configure an area to a specific domain environment for research. Currently, one of the areas is configured as a cyber facility environment for cyber operator research. All the lab areas support research on team processes and team performance with a focus on neurophysiological indices as a means to enhance team effectiveness and adaptability, support robust decision making, reduce team workload, and improve situation awareness in distributed team environments. Lab capabilities include: transcranial Doppler technology for measuring cerebral hemodynamics cerebral oximetry technology for measuring regional oxygen saturation psychophysiological data collection capabilities (EEG and ECG) head and eye-gaze tracking speech recognition, communication, and voice analysis applications Cyber Nexus simulator (unique to cyber) several synthetic task environments for distributed team operation simulations.

This is a reconfigurable operations center environment where many different displays can be used to evaluate the gamut from single to multiple user operations. Specifically, it contains a number of specialized displays including nine different true 3-D displays that span from helmet-mounted displays to the DARPA Urban Sand Table next-generation holographic display, as well as four different multi-touch surface displays. A number of commercial off-the-shelf and in-house developed interaction devices are also used for testing interaction with multi-dimensional data.
