U.S. Navy Aerospace Experimental Psychologists assigned to Naval Medical Research Unit Dayton (NAMRU-Dayton) prepare for a test profile in the Disorientation Research Device, also known as the Kraken. As a basic research device, the Kraken can be customized for specific project needs. Here, NAMRU-Dayton researchers use the Kraken to study the impact of spatial disorientation and visual illusions on aircrew performance. Lt. Cmdr.

NAMRU-Dayton’s Kraken is a one-of-a-kind research platform that provides realistic simulation of aviation environments with customizable capsule configurations supporting one or two side by side occupants.
NAMRU-Dayton anticipates and responds to operational requirements to enhance the readiness, performance, and survivability of the naval and joint warfighter.
