A bio-cybernetic, closed-loop system was validated for use in an adaptive automation environment. Subjects were asked to perform either a single task or multiple tasks from the Multi-Attribute Task Battery. EEG was continuously sampled while they performed the task(s) and an EEG index was derived (20 Beta/Alpha + Theta). The system switched between manual and automatic modes according to the level of operator engagement based upon the EEG index. The NASA-TLX was administered after each trial. The results of the study demonstrated that it was possible to moderate an operator's level of engagement through a closed-loop system driven by the operator's EEG. In addition, the system was sensitive to increases in task load. These findings show promise for designing adaptive automation technology around psychophysiological input.

The text mainly introduced the thickener’s front technology and also talked about the process of using flocculent addition and the emissions of underflow density presenting a more optimal automatic control scheme on the basis of the original automatic project. Using automatic control components like PLC programmable logic controller and the control elements of the inverter make the thickener in a whole closed-loop system for the flocculant addition and the density of the ore and the process of discharge. It will bring a positive side for our economic, social and ecological environment.
