Underwater Human Factors Research Group

The Underwater Human Factors Research Group studies how people interact with underwater environments, equipment, and technology. Their aim is to improve safety, performance, and comfort for divers, submariners, and other underwater workers. They analyze factors like human behavior, decision-making, communication, and ergonomic design to reduce risks and enhance operational efficiency. By understanding these aspects, the group helps develop better training, equipment, and procedures for underwater activities, ensuring that humans can perform safely and effectively in challenging aquatic conditions.
