Description

CMC proposes, along with our collaborator, Dr. Mica Endlsey of SA Technologies, to produce a framework from which an Adaptive User Interface (AUI) can be modeled and ultimately developed that utilizes Augmented Reality (AR) to improve Situational Awareness (SA) for spaceflight users in a high-workload scenario. This effort includes a thorough literature review related to the effects of modality and format on workload, as these are key factors informing our framework. Additionally, we will develop a display philosophy to guide how information is presented to the user. The effort includes a survey, assessment and technical summary of currently available and developing hardware and software technologies related to AR. Finally, we will develop a proof-of-concept prototype to demonstrate our AUI model framework and display philosophy targeted at a specifically defined task.
