HoloLens, Mixed Reality and Human Factors

Most people know I came from a Human Factors background. The next step for HoloLens 2 and Mixed Reality will be Human Factors and Human Systems. Think about this; testing an entire watchstation of twelve display consoles in combat. All twelve watchstanders wearing HoloLens 2 that has sophisticated eye tracking capabilities and can video the entire scenario while recording system data, including tracking where watchstander is looking, to the cloud. The test coordinator, also wearing an HoloLens 2 says one word – ‘begin’ and all HoloLens 2 devices kick off at the same time. When coordinator says ‘stop’ they all stop and finish recording data to the cloud.

This data could then be fed from the cloud into another HoloLens app for Manpower Modeling and Simulation analysis of real data.

Ergonomics and Safety specialists could use it for equipment and space analysis.

This is just a start.
