An effort to produce a representative workstation for the Space Station Data Management Test Bed that provides man/machine interface design options for consolidating, automating, and integrating the space station work station, and hardware/software technology demonstrations of space station applications is discussed. The workstation will emphasize the technologies of advanced graphics engines, advanced display/control medias, image management techniques, multifunction controls, and video disk utilizations

TECHNICAL SYMPOSIUM N87-29161
SPACE STATION FOCUSED TECHNOLOGY
"ELECTRONIC CONTROL/DISPLAY INTERFACE TECHNOLOGY"
R. V. Parrish, A. M. Busquets,
R. F. Murray, J. J. Hatfield
NASA-Langley Research Center
The objective of this effort is to achieve, through an orderly process
of assessment, analysis, desiqn, development and test, a representation
of an advanced workstation for inclusion in the Space Station Data
Management Test Bed. The workstation will use presently available tech-
nological elements and will be adaptive to future evolutionary techno-
logies, advanced architectures, and enhanced software. The effort will
be nurtured by the advanced control/display and human factors technology
emanating (past, present, and future) from the NASA Aeronautical R&T
Base program in Crew Station Technology, which provides a firm basis for
consolidating, automating, and integrating the interface between man/
machine.
Promising technologies to be considered for inclusion in the workstation
are: high-performance all-rastergraphic pictorial display generation,
advanced display media (including flat panel displays), interactive multi-
function controls (including touch and voice), advanced workstation
processors, and interactive video disc hardwares, as well as the software
base, methodologies, and techniques for their integration into advanced
workstation concepts. Image management technologies for the storage,
retrieval, and routing of computer-generated data, live imagery, video
disc imagery/data, and combinations of these in windowed displays will
be emphasized.
The program plan (i.e., to achieve the objectives of providing innovative
and flexible user options which support clean, uncluttered workstations
that fulfill:space station requirements) consists of three phases. The
initial phase provides for the determination of the control/display
information and functional requirements to furnish such capabilities as
systems monitoring/control, office automation functions, resource manage-
ment, and data base management, as well as a survey of the available
devices and systems technologies (display generators, workstation proces-
sors, display medias, multifunction controls, etc.). The second phase
deals with the evaluation, through an interim workstation, of the archi-
tectural options, the implementation strategies, and the space station
applications for technology demonstration that will be incorporated into
the final workstation. The final phase consists of assembling the
deliverable workstation and interfacing it to the Data Management Test
Bed at Johnson Space Flight Center.
In summary, this effort will produce a representative workstation for the
Space Station Data Management Test Bed that provides man/machine interface
design options for consolidating, automating, and integrating the space
station workstation, and hardware/software technology demonstrations of
space station applications. The workstation will emphasize the technolo-
gies of advanced 9raphics engines, advanced display/control medias, image
::,_nagement techniques, multifunction controls, and video disc utilizations.
_n addition, the effort will contribute to the overall knowledge base of
_ran/machine interface design methodologies.
