Human Factors and Medicine (HFM) Panel Office

The mission of the Human Factors and Medicine Panel is to provide the science and technology base for optimising health, human protection, well being and performance of the human in operational environments with consideration of affordability. This involves understanding and ensuring the physical, physiological, psychological and cognitive compatibility among military personnel, technological systems, missions, and environments. This is accomplished by exchange of information, collaborative experiments and shared field trials.

HFM-MSG-375-RSM Research Specialists’ Meeting

on

"Human Digital Twin in the Military: Findings and Perspective"

to be held in
Orlando, Florida, USA
10th-13th December 2024

 

 This event is UNCLASSIFIED, open to participants from NATO Nations, EOP Nations, and Austria, Israel, Singapore, Switzerland, and New Zealand.

 

Deadline for receipt of Abstracts is the 26th of April, 2024.

The objective of this Specialists’ Meeting is to examine the use of Human Digital Twins (HDTs) in the military. HDTs are digital counterparts of real-life individuals, which capture and simulate the physical, mental and social aspects of a human. They are used in a variety of applications, including simulation and training, robotics, biomedical research, decision support and others. This activity is not intended to create a HDT or collect data useful in a HDT but to understand activities with respect to military relevant application. If successful, the Research Specialist Meeting (RSM) will drive a common understanding of terminology, an inclusive set of use cases, and an understanding of current capabilities to drive a shared vision of HDTs and their applications.

Additional details can be found in the attached Call for Abstracts.
