Normative Baseline Oculomotor Performance
Future missions to the moon or Mars will require the crew to monitor and assess their health and performance more autonomously, necessitating approaches that are easily useable and interpretable by non-clinicians. The eye-movement-based performance metrics (oculometrics) obtained from NASA-patented technology developed at the Visuomotor Control Laboratory can reliably detect and discriminate the source of mild neural impairment relative to an individual’s baseline visual and sensorimotor performance and can predict performance in manual control tasks. This study aims to develop a database of normative performance that can be used to enable the detection of impairment without a within-subject baseline and to facilitate power analyses for the design of future studies.
