Description:
<jats:p> Electroencephalography (EEG) has the prospect of providing a means to gauge operator workload in a manner that does not intrude on the task being performed. Specifically, it has been proposed that the technique could be used as a method to speed the learning of a task, by adjusting the task to suit the state of the learner. The present study recorded EEG while participants performed a simulated Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) reconnaissance task. Analysis of power in three EEG frequency bands of interest found differences between the types of task being performed; however more complex analysis may be necessary to discern levels of difficulty within the task. </jats:p>
