A human factors testbed for command and control of unmanned air vehicles

In this paper, the testbed which is built upon the Multi-Modal Immersive Intelligent Interface for Remote Operation (MIIIRO) to support UAV control is presented. The testbed implements a client/server architecture in which UAV operations are simulated on a server that maintains the states of the UAVs. The testbed supports both the route planning and execution of human factors experiments.
