During my experiences I maintained a key role in formalising a framework for usability evaluation of Artificial Reality systems, which received notable acclaim from European Union project review. More specifically I was responsible for developing the Heuristic Evaluation for Artificial Realities Tool (HEART) and Semiotic Inspection Procedure that were conceived to support evaluation in the high end technologies of mobile Augmented and Virtual Reality systems and their applications within education and training. Other research interests encompass areas of interaction, haptics and task analysis, most notably my contribution toward the Human Factors Integration (HFI) initiative within the Defense Technology Centre (DTC) at the University. The Team is a founding member of the CADRE group (Consortium of Academics with Defence-Related Experience) and has undertaken a range of Virtual Technology and Uninhabited Vehicles activities for NATO.The Team has instigated a new research programme within the DTC, codenamed Alchemy, addressing the application of low-cost Virtual Reality (VR) or Synthetic Environment (SE) test beds to (a) the Concept, Assessment and Demonstration phases of the MoD’s CADMID process,(b) the six domains of HFI (manpower, personnel, training, system safety, health hazard and human factors engineering) and (c) the development of novel semi-autonomous or unmanned systems (in this case a small unmanned air vehicle – UAV) for urban operations with a significant human operator involvement.
