These Scientists and Scholars associated with the Institute for Simulation and Training were part of a team that was put together in 2006. The purpose of which was to submit a proposal for a NAVY STTR Solicitation concerning Galvonic Vestibular Stimulation.
The proposal was not awarded to us however, suggestions from the debriefing of the proposal made their way to the drawing board and have been added to the design making it more commercially viable. You don't get the caliper of these individuals to work with you on just any project.
This clip is from a presentation I put together back in 2005 which these scientists scrutinized and gave their opinions as to what they thought of the approach. It used a 15' - 20' diameter.
