Abstract:

Decision making speed of a human is improved by presenting data to the human in ways that enable the human to receive the data at higher rates, and spend more time analyzing received data. The data may represent information, such as infrared imagery or map data, that is not directly perceivable by the human. An individual datum may be presented to the human via multiple senses, to make receiving the datum easier, and to make it more likely that the datum is received, especially in contexts where the human may be busy, stressed, cognitively loaded or distracted by other demands on the human's attention. Some embodiments automatically select which sense or combination of senses to use for presenting each datum, based on various factors, such as how the human's current environment may interfere with the human's ability to receive or process the datum or how busy a given sense is.
