Heart Rate Variability (HRV) biofeedback: A new training approach for operator's performance enhancement

The widespread implementation of advanced and complex systems requires predominantly operators’ cognitive functions and less importance of human manual control. On the other hand, most operators perform their cognitive functions below their peak cognitive capacity level due to fatigue, stress, and b...
