However, testing using human subjects presents major challenges and current human-size thermal mannequins have limited testing capabilities. The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) along with their counterparts from other countries are seeking to develop more human like mannequins, which would include features like human motion, in order to carry out more advanced chemical testing. At the request of DOD Product Director, Test Equipment, Strategy and Support, the National Research Council formed an ad hoc committee to evaluate the feasibility of developing an advanced humanoid robot, or Protection Ensemble Test Mannequin (PETMAN) system that meets the DOD requirements. The book concludes that although most of the individual requirements can technically be met, fulfilling all of the requirements is currently not possible. Based on this conclusion the committee recommends that DOD considers three issues, prioritization of current system requirements, use qualified contractor for particular technical aspects, incorporate complementary testing approaches to the PETMAN system. 606 $aChemicals$xSafety measures$xTesting 606 $aPersonal protective equipment$xTesting 606 $aSoldiers$xEquipment and supplies$xQuality control 615 0$aChemicals$xSafety measures$xTesting. 615 0$aPersonal protective equipment$xTesting. 615 0$aSoldiers$xEquipment and supplies$xQuality control. 676 $a687/.16 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Full-System Testing and Evaluation of Personal Protection Equipment Ensembles in Simulated Checmial-Warfare Environments. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bBoard on Chemical Sciences and Technology. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910964101303321 996 $aSoldier protective clothing and equipment$94355322 997 $aUNINA
