Human-Agent Interaction for Route Planning | 11/13/2013 | 11/12/2014 |
Description:
The purpose of this study is to determine how effectively humans can make route-selection decisions given textual information. First you will be given an introduction, tested for color blindness, and given a training session to help familiarize you with the task for the experiment. The training session will be very similar to the experimental session. Once this is complete, you will be placed into the experimental scenario, where you will play the role of a soldier navigating in a virtual environment along a designated course. Your task is to select which route you feel would be best for a particular section of the course. On the screens in front of you there are two interfaces. On the main screens you will see an avatar of a soldier. In the upper corner of the screen you will see a map display that looks similar to a GPS system. Your task is to navigate the soldier to a series of 10 waypoints. At each waypoint you will be presented with information and asked to make a decision about which route to take. Your goal should be to complete the task as fast as possible and to get to the end location with at least 5 energy units so you are ready to fight.Eligibility:

Serving Faculty
The Office of Research serves UCF scholars as the official liaison between UCF and funding sources and by helping faculty work through the proposal and contract management process.
This site includes information to assist university scholars through the announcement, application and post-award stages and to familiarize prospective partners with the breadth of funded research conducted at the university.
Sponsored research at UCF is growing exponentially. UCF is committed to the pursuit of excellence and intellectual growth and seeks to excel at moving ideas to innovation and realization. The Carnegie Foundation rates UCF as a "very high research activity" university. We�ve been on an upward trajectory for years and in 2020 UCF surpassed the $204.5 million dollar mark in external funding. UCF's pioneering efforts to commercialize technology continue to stimulate local economies throughout the state. The number of patents at UCF also continue to climb with 44 U.S. issued patents produced in 2019.
Budget Templates
Below you will find NIH and NS budget templates. Although they are tailored for NIH or NSF, they can be used for developing your budget for any funding source.
