| Sustaining Performance in Simulation UAV Operation |
Description:
Your task is to operate several UAVs within a simulated environment, assisted by computer automation. You will be trained in the use of UAV simulation software. You will be asked to sit at a computer workstation that consists of two computer displays and controls (mouse and keyboard). You may be asked to do any or all of the following tasks related to UAV operation: assign tasks to UAVs, choose new routes for the UAVs, identify and count targets in images, answer situation awareness questions that appear on the screen, respond to vehicle status events, and respond to unexpected aircraft. Following training you will be asked to perform a simulated UAV mission, lasting 60 min. You will also be asked to complete background questionnaires including information on your computer and video game experience. You will also be asked to complete questionnaires on your mood and attitudes towards the task before and after performance. When the study is over, the research assistant will give you debriefing information about the study.
Please note that payment for participation can only be picked up between 9AM and 11AM, Monday through Thursday.

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.
