Perception research and theory have always had clear links to applications. For instance, a student of Wilhehn Wundt who studied binaural sound location went from his dissertation to develop a mechanism for the German Air Force to determine the range of aircraft, flying at a great distance, only on the basis of the sound of their engines received at two large horn-type receivers. Another student of Wundt went from his dissertation on motion perception to develop one of the very first simulators, to study the job of railway motor men. As is well known, research on vigilance was stimulated by the need to understand and redesign the tasks of radar operators during World War II. With regard to sustained attention in particular, the scope of applications has expanded significantly in recent years, from radar (the one person-one machine context) to other contexts involving teams and multiple technologies, such as weather forecasters looking at multiple data types to predict hurricane tracks, soldiers searching for land mines and improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and baggage screeners. Another salient area is performance measurement, which has recently been driven to move beyond the measurement of individual performance (e.g., accuracy, errors, workload) to the measurement of performance of "complex cognitive systems." We can anticipate that research will continue to be driven by national needs, including private sector as well as government and military needs, and that important theoretical advances will stem from research that has both ecological and epistemological utility. This will continue the trend of dissolving of the simplistic "applied versus basic" distinction while retaining a promise to contribute to the basic science of psychology.
