Operations and Human Factors

Our mission is to support the military that protects the interests of the Netherlands, even at the frontlines.

We work on innovative solutions that provide Defense with the best tools and methods. For individual soldiers and teams. In contact with each other and their systems. With progressive education and training, aimed at executing comprehensive operations under the most challenging circumstances.

With all our scientific knowledge, skills, and energy, we support Defense, so technological innovation becomes an integral part of military practice.

This way, our military personnel remains world-class in every domain: land, sea, air, space, and digital. On every scale, from heartbeat to headquarters.

Read how the Ministry of Defence, emergency services, and also companies use our knowledge on this subject.

Functie:
Principal Scientist at TNO and Professor at TU Delft
Progress in artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, conversational agents, connectivity and sensing technology increases the capabilities of physical and virtual agents to operate more and more autonomously, possibly as team members, companions or partners of humans. However, the information and decision-making processes of these agents differ from human’s processes fundamentally, providing new opportunities and risks for advancing the joint human-AI performance and human well-being.
