Integrated Sensors Platform - Streamlining Quantitative Physiological Data Collection and Analysis.

Human performance measurement for computer-based tasks is a critical need for assessing new capabilities and making inferences about their usability, utility and efficacy. Currently, many performance-based assessments rely on outcome-based measures and subjective evaluations. However, a quantitative method is needed to provide more fine-grained insight into performance. While there are some commercial solutions that integrate human sensors, in our exploration, these solutions have numerous limitations. We decided to build our own web application platform, the Integrated Sensors Platform (ISP), to collect, integrate, and fuse disparate human-based sensors, allowing users to link physio-behavioral outcomes to overall performance. Currently, we have integrated three sensors, two commercial and one custom, which together can help calculate various user metrics. While our focus has been using ISP to assess visualizations for cybersecurity, we hypothesize that it can have impact for both researchers and practitioners in the HCII community.
