CLOSED-LOOP NEUROFEEDBACK SYSTEM

FOR AUSTERE ENVIRONMENTS

Ā 

This video presents a closed-loop, sensor-driven neurofeedback system designed to maintain and restore human performance in austere, high-stress environments.

The system integrates real-time physiological and cognitive sensing to detect early degradation in readiness caused by heat, cold, fatigue, cognitive load, and operational stress. Portable, low-profile sensors capture key neurophysiological, movement, respiratory, and behavioral signals without disrupting mission execution.

Sensor data is continuously processed to generate actionable readiness metrics. When performance degradation is identified, the system delivers rapid, targeted neuro-priming and regulation interventions to stabilize insight, accelerate recovery, and improve decision-making under pressure.

This process follows a continuous Sense, Interpret, Neuro Prime, and Act loop. The system senses human state through integrated physiological and cognitive signals, using sensors developed and validated in collaboration with University of California, San Diego to detect early changes in readiness before performance visibly degrades. These signals are interpreted in real-time to generate actionable readiness and risk insights. Based on identified nervous system needs, targeted neuro-priming is applied to regulate autonomic state, supporting increased readiness or recovery and rehabilitation in response to operational demands. This enables more effective action under austere, high-stress conditions, with the loop continuously updating as environmental conditions and task demands change.

The video highlights system capabilities and operational applications across live fire training, heat exposure, cold immersion, sustained physical workloads, cognitively complex tasks, and recovery scenarios. Beyond these examples, the system is adaptable across a wide range of operational, training, rehabilitation, and performance contexts where maintaining cognitive clarity, physiological stability, and decision accuracy is critical.

Applications extend across defense, first response, industrial safety, aviation, healthcare, rehabilitation, and high-performance environments where individuals must operate effectively under fatigue, stress, and limited resources.

This closed-loop neurofeedback system transforms performance monitoring from passive measurement into active performance optimization under extreme and resource-constrained conditions.
