Book The Human Weapon System

Download or read book The Human Weapon System written by Christopher Myers and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-12 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the differences between a human weapon system and a tactical athlete and what a human optimization program is. Furthermore, this book discusses and demonstrates how to put together a training program at an organizational level for the human weapon system. A systematic approach is presented and discussed, from initial analysis of the human weapon system to creating a multi-domain human performance optimization program. This book strives to familiarize the reader with the systematic approach that the author has utilized as an exercise physiologist in the Department of Defence over the past ten years. This book also explains how to utilize technology to individualize the human performance optimization program at an organizational level. The book discusses current technologies in power generation, measuring endurance, and nutrition, and also demonstrates to strength coaches and practitioners how to use these technologies and individualize optimization.

Book Procedures for Including Human Engineering Factors in the Development of Weapon Systems

Download or read book Procedures for Including Human Engineering Factors in the Development of Weapon Systems written by Harold P. Van Cott and published by . This book was released on 1958 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "At each stage in the development of a new weapon system appropriate action must be taken regarding the eventual role which men will play in operating and maintaining the completed system. The use of systematic procedures for solving problems and making decisions with respect to these human engineering factors, and for articulating them with other aspects of system development, assures that the weapon system emerges as a maximally effective man-machine system. This report is intended to suggest systematic procedures for the human engineering of developmental weapon systems. A brief discussion of man-machine systems and the role of human engineering in their design is followed by a design schedule. This schedule suggests at what points and in what ways human engineering should be accomplished. Following the design schedule, procedures that may be used to assess and solve human engineering problems are suggested. Finally, human capabilities and limitations are discussed from the point of view of the man as a system component."--Abstract.

Book Army of None  Autonomous Weapons and the Future of War

Download or read book Army of None Autonomous Weapons and the Future of War written by Paul Scharre and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2018-04-24 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The book I had been waiting for. I can't recommend it highly enough." —Bill Gates The era of autonomous weapons has arrived. Today around the globe, at least thirty nations have weapons that can search for and destroy enemy targets all on their own. Paul Scharre, a leading expert in next-generation warfare, describes these and other high tech weapons systems—from Israel’s Harpy drone to the American submarine-hunting robot ship Sea Hunter—and examines the legal and ethical issues surrounding their use. “A smart primer to what’s to come in warfare” (Bruce Schneier), Army of None engages military history, global policy, and cutting-edge science to explore the implications of giving weapons the freedom to make life and death decisions. A former soldier himself, Scharre argues that we must embrace technology where it can make war more precise and humane, but when the choice is life or death, there is no replacement for the human heart.

Book Tactical Display for Soldiers

Download or read book Tactical Display for Soldiers written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-01-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the human factors issues associated with the development, testing, and implementation of helmet-mounted display technology in the 21st Century Land Warrior System. Because the framework of analysis is soldier performance with the system in the full range of environments and missions, the book discusses both the military context and the characteristics of the infantry soldiers who will use the system. The major issues covered include the positive and negative effects of such a display on the local and global situation awareness of the individual soldier, an analysis of the visual and psychomotor factors associated with each design feature, design considerations for auditory displays, and physical sources of stress and the implications of the display for affecting the soldier's workload. The book proposes an innovative approach to research and testing based on a three-stage strategy that begins in the laboratory, moves to controlled field studies, and culminates in operational testing.

Book Autonomous Weapon Systems and the Law of Armed Conflict

Download or read book Autonomous Weapon Systems and the Law of Armed Conflict written by Tim McFarland and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-09 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For policymakers, this book explains the ramifications under international humanitarian law of a major new field of weapon development with a focus on questions currently being debated by governments, the United Nations and other bodies. Based on a clear explanation of the principles of autonomous systems and a survey of technologies under active development as well as some that are in use today, it provides a thorough legal analysis grounded on a clear understanding of the technological realities of autonomous weapon systems. For legal practitioners and scholars, it describes the legal constraints that will apply to use of autonomous systems in armed conflict and the measures that will be needed to ensure that the efficacy of the law is maintained. More generally, it serves as a case study in identifying the legal consequences of use of autonomous systems in partnership with, or in place of, human beings.
