Jatiningrum, D. (author), de Visser, C.C. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)A characterization of an angular accelerometer sensor is performed with a frequency- response experiment. To assess angular accelerometer dynamic properties, a position-based calibration table is utilized to provide the excitation input. The angular accelerometer specifications and calibration table limitations dfine a constrained test envelope...conference paper 2016

Jatiningrum, D. (author), de Visser, C.C. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)The calibration of Angular Accelerometers requires a controlled test with a known acceleration profile. However, current turn-tables have been designed primarily for generating a constant rotational velocity. To generate a profile with varying angular acceleration we propose using constant rotational velocity on the two axes of a 2-axes motion...conference paper 2016

Mulder, Max (author), Pool, D.M. (author), Abbink, D.A. (author), Boer, E.R. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author)Manual control cybernetics aims to understand and describe how humans control vehicles and devices, such that more effective human-machine interfaces can be designed. Current cybernetics theory is primarily based on technology and analysis methods developed in the 1960s and has shown to be limited in its capability to capture the full breadth of...conference paper 2016

Bhoelai, A.K. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Abbink, D.A. (author), Mulder, Max (author)The human neuromuscular system can be seen as a versatile and extremely adaptive actuator. Through co-contraction and reex modulation, the properties of the neuromuscular system can be modified, leading to a change in movement response to externally applied forces. These properties are normally expressed in the form of the neuromuscular...conference paper 2016

Roggenkämper, N (author), Pool, D.M. (author), Drop, F.M. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)In manual control, the human operator primarily responds to visual inputs but may elect to make use of other available feedback paths such as physical motion, adopting a multi-channel control strategy. Hu- man operator identification procedures generally require a priori selection of the model structure, which can be problematic as the exact...conference paper 2016

Peterse, H.P.M. (author), Pool, D.M. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Knowledge of how human operators’ tracking behavior is affected by simulator motion cueing settings is of great value for flight simulator design and fidelity evaluations. Previous studies have revealed strong effects of degraded motion cueing quality on human operator control behavior in compensatory tracking, but the presented visual cues in...conference paper 2016

Abdul Rahman, S.M.B. (author), Borst, C. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Air traffc controller workload is an important impediment to air transport growth. Several approaches exist that aim to better understand the causes for workload, and models have been derived to predict workload in new operational settings. These methods often relate workload to the diffculty, or complexity, that an average controller would have...journal article 2016

Ellerbroek, Joost (author), Rodriguez Martin, M.J.M. (author), Lombaerts, T (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)This paper describes the design and evaluation of a shared control, haptic feedback system to communicate Flight Envelope Protection System intent. The concept uses a combination of stiffness feedback and vibration to communicate proximity of the aircraft state to flight envelope boundaries. In addition, a stick center shift can be applied by...journal article 2016

Bijsterbosch, V.A. (author), Borst, C. (author), Mulder, Max (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author)Future air traffic control will have to rely on more advanced automation in order to support controllers in their job of safely controlling increased traffic volumes. A prerequisite for the success of such automation is that the underlying data driving it is reliable. Current technology, however, still warrants human supervision in coping with ...journal article 2016

van Lochem, S. (author), Borst, C. (author), de Croon, G.C.H.E. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can be used to access remote areas, e.g., for surveillance missions. Collaboration between them can help overcome communication constraints by building airborne relay networks that allow beyond line of sight communication. This research investigates whether a single human operator can supervise multiple UAVs in a...journal article 2016

Lakerveld, P.R. (author), Damveld, H.J. (author), Pool, D.M. (author), van der El, K. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)This paper investigates the importance of yaw and sway motion cues in curve driving simulation. While such motion cues are known to enhance simulation realism, their function in supporting realistic driver behavior in simulators is still largely unknown. A human-in-the-loop curve driving experiment was performed in the SIMONA Research Simulator...journal article 2016

Mulder, Max (author), Borst, C. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author)In the design of human-machine interfaces and automation, an important question is how to obtain and validate a design that is capable of supporting the operator’s understanding and situation awareness of the process under control. Whereas many research efforts address the question of ‘what is the operator aware of?’ – the awareness – only a few...conference paper 2017

Ho, V. (author), Borst, C. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)In tele-operating an UAV human operators fully rely on cameras to control the vehicle from a distance. To increase operator situation awareness and reduce workload, a haptic feedback on the control stick has been developed which acts as an automatic collision avoidance system. A virtual force field surrounding the moving vehicle interacts with...conference paper 2017

(author), Mulder, Max (author)A body illusion, commonly known in the form of the “Rubber Hand Illusion”, is an illusion wherein visual inputs on an inanimate object and simultaneous tactile inputs on a part of the body lead to a situation where the inanimate object is identified as the body part. This study investigated the possibility of inducing a body illusion during a...conference paper 2017

Drop, F.M. (author), Pool, D.M. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author), Bülthoff, Heinrich H. (author)Realistic manual control tasks typically involve predictable target signals and random disturbances. The human controller (HC) is hypothesized to use a feedforward control strategy for target-following, in addition to feedback control for disturbance-rejection. Little is known about human feedforward control, partly because common system...journal article 2017
