The Cambridge Handbook of Applied Perception Research covers core areas of research in perception with an emphasis on its application to real-world environments. Topics include multisensory processing of information, time perception, sustained attention, and signal detection, as well as pedagogical issues surrounding the training of applied perception researchers. In addition to familiar topics, such as perceptual learning, the Handbook focuses on emerging areas of importance, such as human-robot coordination, haptic interfaces, and issues facing societies in the twenty-first century (such as terrorism and threat detection, medical errors, the broader implications of automation). Organized into sections representing major areas of theoretical and practical importance for the application of perception psychology to human performance and the design and operation of human-technology interdependence, it also addresses the challenges to basic research, including the problem of quantifying information, defining cognitive resources, and theoretical advances in the nature of attention and perceptual processes.

Despite the importance of satellite remote sensing technology in all aspects of environmental science, psychological research is only now beginning to experimentally examine the human factor in interpreting remote sensing imagery. Interpreting Remote Sensing Imagery: Human Factors draws together leading psychologists, leading remote sensing scientists, and scientists in both government and industry, to consider issues involving expertise and perceptual skill in satellite image interpretation. Topics in the book range from the aesthetics of scientific visualization, to the mathematical analysis of perceptible objects, to the applied problems of training and interface design.
