In its quest to help soldiers enhance their physical and mental performance, Army Futures Command brought together experts from the private sector to discuss new technologies and emerging trends.
Over a two-day symposium, the experts from academia and sports and technology companies weighed in on optimizing human performance by focusing on cognition among people with physically demanding jobs, using wearable technology or analog methods to encourage desired outcomes, making healthy choices, and examining the role of data in enabling better health, precision and resilience.
The VERTEX—Human Performance symposium was held Dec. 7–8 in Austin, Texas, and hosted by the Army Applications Laboratory, which was stood up in 2018 under Futures Command as an innovation unit to mine the commercial marketplace for ideas.
