Abstract: A system for assessing biological tissue is disclosed. The system contains an illumination hardware arrangement comprising transmission and sensing hardware, the illumination hardware arrangement configured to inspect a biological tissue using at least two modes from a group containing: a three dimensional stereo imaging mode; a fluorescence imaging mode; a reflectance imaging mode; and a thermal imaging mode; and processing hardware configured to operate the illumination hardware arrangement according to a protocol comprising inspection settings of the at least two modes, wherein the processing hardware receives scan results for the at least two modes from the illumination hardware arrangement and identifies attributes of the biological tissue by constructing a three dimensional dataset from the scan results for the at least two modes and analyzing the three dimensional dataset.

Abstract: A system and method is described for improving situational awareness, fatigue management, and navigation via tactile feedback to vehicle operators, such as via a piezoelectric device. The tactile feedback may be provided to a vehicle operator in response to data gathered from external, headset integrated or aircraft integrated navigation sensors, such as may be used to identify navigational deviations outside of pre-established tolerances. The tactile feedback may be provided to a vehicle operator in response to physiological operator metric gathering and processing. One or more physiological sensors may be included on an operator headset, and may be either proximate to or separated from the tactile feedback device. As data is provided to the operator of a vehicle, equivalent data may be provided to a third party (e.g. a control center, dispatch, mission control, or similar). The data may be used to determine alertness levels remotely and intervene as necessary.

Abstract: An exemplary cardio-postural assessment system (CAS) may desirably provide for continuous cardiovascular and postural data monitoring and assessment of a subject during standing. One such CAS may provide continuous cardiovascular and postural data monitoring using a non-invasive weight-scale platform. Another such CAS device may allow for an assessment of balance/posture control, posture muscle activation, and cardiovascular function components simultaneously and provide detailed output as to the proportion each area contributes to the cardio-postural stability of an individual.
