In India, Dr. Munna Khan, Professor has pioneered bringing advanced Engineering techniques to understand the medical status of aviation pilots in real time and dynamic mode. Towards this objective, he has brought in a link between high level technological institutions with the domain of aviation medicine and its field applications. This collaborative activity originated by Dr. Khan has been extended to help in more practical oriented use of electrical impedance plethysmography in organizations dealing with aviation medicine in USA. He has significantly contributed towards increasing interaction of aviation medicine professionals in India with their counterparts in USA.

Dr Khan has introduced various new dimensions in bio-instrumentation for health care and thereby significantly advanced human welfare. The specific contributions are in conceiving the concept for non-invasive quantification of lung edema onset and distribution. It not only shows the presence of fluid but it roughly estimates the amount of fluid accumulation. This particular methodology has helped in reducing morbidity in persons who go to high altitude. Also the innovative technique and instrumentation has value in hospital medical practice.

Dr. Khan has also pioneered bringing advanced technique to design and develop the Psychoacoustic device using Indian resources. It produces signal at inaudible frequency range and could have applications in the use of non-lethal weapons. The developed psychoacoustic device may be used for attack during the war with the intention of altering mental states of their enemies.
