Abstract

An extensive effort is ongoing to validate the TARDEC visual mode (TVM). This paper describes in detail some recent efforts to utilize the model for dual need commercial and military target acquisition applications. The recent completion of a visual perception laboratory within TARDEC is a useful tool to calibrate and validate human performance models for specific visual tasks. Some validation examples will be given for low contrast targets along with a description of the TVM and perception laboratory capabilities.
