Majoros, Anthony E., Ianni, John, Davies, Paul, Higgins, Robert and Havig, Paul (2007): Surveillance Video with Spatially Registered Graphics for Decision Support. In: Verly, Jacques G. and Guell, Jeff J. (eds.) SPIE Defense and Security Conference: Enhanced and Synthetic Vision April 9-13, 2007, Orlando, Florida. .

Conventional daylight video, and other forms of motion imagery, have an expanded role in communication and decision making as sensor platforms (e.g., unoccupied aerial vehicles [UAVs]) proliferate. Video, of course, enables more persons to become observers than does direct viewing, and presents a rapidly growing volume of content for those observers to understand and integrate. However, knowing the identity of objects and gaining an awareness of situations depicted in video can be challenging as the number of camera feeds increases, or as multiple decision makers rely on the same content. Graphic additions to streaming video, spatially registered and appearing to be parts of the observed scene, can draw attention to specific content, reduce uncertainty, increase awareness of evolving situations, and ultimately produce a type of image-based communication that reduces the need for verbal interaction among observers. This paper describes how streaming video can be enhanced for decision support using feature recognition and tracking; object identification, graphic retrieval and positioning; and collaborative capabilities.

Majoros, Anthony E. (1988): Human Factors Issues in Aircraft Maintenance. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 32nd Annual Meeting 1988. pp. 160-161.

Aircraft present significant challenges to the people who maintain them. Time pressure, the complexity of aircraft systems, the need to adhere to minute detail, and cramped working spaces generally interact to create a difficult work setting. Due to the cognitive, biodynamic, and endurance demands of this work, human capacities and limitations are important variables in civil and military aviation maintenance. The critical nature of these variables is indicated in a variety of emerging research issues.
