“…Performance assessment is a requirement for effective simulation training (Copenhaver et al, 1996;Hays et al, 1992a;Hettinger et al, 1995;Jacobs et al, 1990;Marcus and Curran, 1988;McCauley and Cotton, 1982;Orlansky et al, 1997;Westra et al, 1982). Characterizing performance measures for medical simulator development is a tedious and time-consuming process, involving task and skills analysis.…”

“…There is a large body of literature showing that high levels of physical fidelity are not necessary for simulator training effectiveness, especially for procedural and part task trainers (Advisory Group, 1980;Durrall et al, 1978;Edwards, 1986;Hays and Singer, 1989;Hays et al, 1992a;Knerr et al, 1986;Lintern et al, 1998;Moroney and Moroney, 1998;;Sawyer et al, 1982;Westra et al, 1982Westra et al, , 1986. Instead, functional fidelity is important -the focus must be placed on simulator design for effective training of the task at hand.…”

DISTRIBUTION / AVAILABILITY STATEMENTApproved for PublicRelease; Distribution Unlimited 12b. DISTRIBUTION CODE ABSTRACT (Maximum 200 Words)An analysis of military use of non medical simulators has been carried out for the purpose of strategically directing the use of simulation in medicine. The United States Department of Defense has placed an increasing reliance on the use of simulators to train and sustain all manner of skills. This experience is documented by numerous studies attesting to the efficacy of trainers and the cost benefits of simulators. In addition, the range of skills to be trained is effectively broadened by the scope of situations that can be addressed by simulators and the accuracy with which performance can be measured.Technological advances make feasible the introduction of simulation into medicine with the potential for improved training at reduced cost and reduction of medical error. Important lessons need to be learned from the military simulation experience so that the most costeffective application of emerging technologies can be strategically sought for medical simulation. One area of particular benefit to the military medical domain will be substantial improvements in combat trauma readiness. A strategic plan for development of medical simulation in the military are advanced in the report.

“…However, the results from these studies provide inconclusive evidence on the effectiveness of simulator motion. In general, the advantages of simulator motion have not been confirmed in transfer-of-training studies for the type of motion offered by Level D full flight simulators [4,5]. Pilots take advantage of motion cues without needing specific training, and the differences in pilot performance and behavior are generally not operationally relevant [6].…”

The MPI CyberMotion Simulator provides a unique motion platform, as it features an anthropomorphic robot with a large workspace, combined with an actuated cabin and a linear track for lateral movement. This paper introduces the simulator as a tool for studying human perception, and compares its characteristics to conventional Stewart platforms. Furthermore, an experimental evaluation is presented in which multimodal human control behavior is studied by identifying the visual and vestibular responses of participants in a roll-lateral helicopter hover task. The results show that the simulator motion allows participants to increase tracking performance by changing their control strategy, shifting from reliance on visual error perception to reliance on simulator motion cues. The MPI CyberMotion Simulator has proven to be a state-of-the-art motion simulator for psychophysical research to study humans with various experimental paradigms, ranging from passive perception experiments to active control tasks, such as driving a car or flying a helicopter.

“…Een vergelijking met de opleiding tot piloot is hier op zijn plaats. In deze opleiding wordt al jaren gebruik gemaakt van een vliegtuigsimulator, waarin op fysieke en functionele wijze de taakuitvoering wordt nagebootst (Hays, Jacobs, Prince, & Salas, 1992;Yesavage et al, 2002). De gedachte is dat op dezelfde wijze de medische technologie kan worden benut voor het leerproces, door de lerende een omgeving aan te bieden die een hoge fysieke (high) fidelity, met een grootst mogelijke overeenkomst tussen leertaakomgeving en werkelijke professionele omgeving, heeft en tegelijkertijd een taakomgeving biedt waarin de relevante medisch-professionele handelingen kunnen worden ontwikkeld en geoefend (Issenberg et al, 1999;Scalese, Obeso, & Issenberg, 2008).…”
