Hardware and software complex for pre-profile selection and rehabilitation of the drone operators

The project is dedicated to creation of a mobile hardware and software complex for pre-profile selection and rehabilitation of the drone operators. The device operation principle is based on monitoring the body physiological parameters, i.e. lability of the human nervous system, in candidates for the drone operator position by measuring critical frequency of flicker fusion, critical frequency of flicker discrimination and the time required to make a complex decision. The visual analyzer is rehabilitated by exposure to the pulsed light with the wavelength of 550 nm (yellow-green) and the frequency of 10 ... 15% less than the measured and registered value of the critical frequency of flicker discrimination for a specific drone operator. The device is made in the form of the VR glasses, has autonomous power supply and could be used in the field. The device successfully passed laboratory testing at the Armavir Center for Children's (Youth) Scientific and Technical Creativity.
