Lockheed Martin Will Use Neuroscience-Based Technologies To Help Evaluate Tomahawk Missile User Interface
The U.S. Navy wants to make its Tomahawk cruise missile 'smarter' by monitoring the humans operating it.
The Office of Naval Research awarded $724,000 to Lockheed Martin's Advanced Technology Laboratories (ATL). ATL will apply neuroscience-based technologies in augmented cognition on a system called T-TIDES (TTWCS-Tool for Interface Design Evaluation with Sensors) that will read the cruise missile operator's physiological markers and monitor the person's effectiveness.
The project aims to evaluate prospective modifications to the Tactical Tomahawk Weapons
Control System (TTWCS) user interface to detect stress or drowsiness.
