Customer Focus - Use of Hypoxia to Detect Deficits After Concussion

From time to time, we like to showcase the research of our customers.  Our team is always interested in learning more about the huge variety of research projects and discoveries made in labs using Environics systems.

The Environics Reduced Oxygen Breathing device is used worldwide in the training of aviators and others who regularly are flying at altitude. Using the ROBD2, they learn what it feels like to be hypoxic.  However, the system is not solely used for training.  Several researchers have used the ROBD2 for hypoxia related projects. Today, we focus on the results of a recently published study by lead author, Leonard Temme (Vision Sciences Branch, Sensory Research Division, U.S. Army Aeromedical Research Laboratory at Fort Rucker, AL).
