Technology’s most lasting benefits are derived from its ability to impact individual human capabilities. Technology has dramatically expanded the range and scope of human performance: where we can go, what we can sense, what we can do and how we communicate. The focus of the Newman Laboratory is technology to enhance human performance. The mission of the laboratory is to: Understand and quantify key aspects of human
sensorimotor performance, including mobility manipulation touch and feel; Restore function to individuals impaired by
disease, accident, birth defect, occupational hazard or the physical challenge
of normal aging; Create new technology to enable performance beyond
unaided human capability. |
