Dennis A. Vincenzi received his Doctoral degree in 1998 from the University of Central Florida in Human Factors and Applied Experimental Psychology and has over 20 years of experience as a Human Factors researcher. He has been employed by Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University from 1999 to 2004 where he held the position of Assistant Professor in the Department of Human Factors and Systems in Daytona Beach. In 2004, Dr. Vincenzi left Embry-Riddle to work for the United States Navy as a Senior Human Factors Engineer at the Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD) in Orlando, Florida, USA. His duties included performing Human Factors research involving simulation and training system development for a variety of Navy sea and air platforms including the F/A 18 Hornet and Super Hornet, F-35 JSF, Los Angeles, Ohio, and Virginia class submarines, and Littoral Combat Ship (LCS). He was also heavily involved in research involving pilot selection, human performance, and ground control station design for a number of Navy, Marine Corps, and Special Operations Command Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). Since returning to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in 2012, Dr. Vincenzi has been involved in research related to UAS and regulatory requirements within the NAS and has been heavily involved in the development of an experimental gesture-based interface used for investigating user preference, usability, and functionality issues related to interface design in virtual environments.

Mustapha Mouloua is Professor of Psychology and Director of the Applied/Experimental and Human Factors Psychology doctoral program (2008-2017) at the University of Central Florida, Orlando, Florida. He has over 28 years of experience in the teaching, research & development, and evaluation of complex human-machine systems. His research interests include human performance evaluation, human-automation interaction, pilot-alerting systems interaction, automation and workload, pilot training and detection of automation failures, adaptive function allocation and human monitoring of systems, cognition and performance of older pilots, and drivers, simulation technologies, and training in transportation systems. He has over 200 publications and scientific reports published in journals such as Experimental Aging Research, Human Factors, Ergonomics, Perception and Psychophysics, Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, International Journal of Aviation Psychology, Journal of Cognitive Engineering and Decision Making, etc. He is currently the Director of the Transportation Research Group (TRG) laboratories, and Director of the Applied/Experimental and Human Factors Psychology doctoral program (2008-2017) at the University of Central Florida, Orlando, Florida.

Peter A. Hancock, D.Sc., Ph.D. is Provost Distinguished Research Professor in the Department of Psychology and the Institute for Simulation and Training, as well as at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and the Department of Industrial Engineering and Management Systems at the University of Central Florida (UCF). At UCF in 2009 he was created the 16th ever University Pegasus Professor (the Institution’s highest honor) and in 2012 was named 6th ever University Trustee Chair. He directs the MIT2 Research Laboratories. He is the author of over one thousand refereed scientific articles, chapters, and reports as well as writing and editing more than twenty books. He has been continuously funded by extramural sources for every one of the thirty‐ six years of his professional career. This includes support from NASA, NSF, NIH, NIA, FAA, FHWA, NRC, NHTSA, DARPA, NIMH, and all of the branches of the US Armed Forces. He has presented or been an author on, over 1,000 scientific presentations. In association with his colleagues Raja Parasuraman and Anthony Masalonis, he was the winner of the Jerome Hirsch Ely Award of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society for 2001, the same year in which he was elected a Fellow of the International Ergonomics Association. In 2006 he won the Norbert Wiener Award of the Systems, Man and Cybernetics Society of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), being the highest award that Society gives for scientific attainment. He is a Fellow and past President of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society and a Fellow and past President of the Society of Engineering Psychologists as well as being a former Chair of the Board of the Society for Human Performance in Extreme Environments. Most recently he has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) and in 2016 was named the 30th Honorary Member of the Institute of industrial and Systems Engineers (IISE). He currently serves as a member of the United States Air Force, Scientific Advisory Board (SAB), while simultaneously serving on the US Army Science Board (ASB). In July of 2019, he was elected as the forthcoming President of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (HFES). He is only the second person ever to have been elected to that position twice.

James Pharmer holds a doctoral degree in Applied Experimental Human Factors Psychology from the University of Central Florida and a master’s degree in Engineering Psychology from the Florida Institute of Technology. Dr. Pharmer is a Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) Fellow and the Principal Scientist for the Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) Department at the Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD).
