Scientists aim to develop AI “teammates” that can sense cognitive fatigue and helps human to recover.

Michael Pietrucha, a tactical systems specialist at the laboratory said, “In the area of human-machine teaming, we often think about the technology — such as, how do we monitor it, understand it, make sure it is working right. But teamwork is a 2-way street, and these considerations are not happening both ways. What we are doing is looking at the flip side, where the machine is monitoring and enhancing the other side — the human.”
Pietrucha is among a team of lab scientists that aims to develop AI systems that can sense when a person’s cognitive fatigue is interfering with their performance. The system would then suggest interventions, or even take action in dire scenarios, to help the individual recover or to prevent harm.
In this work, the team will apply their biomarker research to AI that can analyze an individual’s cognitive state, encapsulating how fatigued, stressed, or overloaded a person is feeling. The system will use biomarkers derived from physiological data, for example, vocal and facial recordings, heart rate, EEG and optical indications of brain activity, and eye movement to gain these insights.
