Aims:

This task is part of the Human Capabilities Assessments for Autonomous Missions (HCAAM) Virtual NASA Specialized Center of Research (VNSCOR) deliverable. This task will investigate the effects of a virtual task assistant combining procedure automation with augmented reality multi-modal AARM user interfaces on human task performance. The virtual task assistant will assist the crew in becoming familiar with planned procedures, in performing procedure actions, and in maintaining awareness of procedure actions taken by other crew members or automation. This task has the following aims:

Aim 1: Determine best methods to improve situation awareness and improve crew autonomy when using a virtual task assistant to prepare for and perform manual maintenance.
Aim 2: Determine best methods to improve situation awareness and reduce workload when a virtual task assistant is used to handover maintenance tasks between users.
Aim 3: Determine best methods to improve situation awareness and reduce workload when using a virtual task assistant to help manage concurrent manual and automated tasks.

Mappings

Risk of Adverse Outcome Due to Inadequate Human Systems Integration Architecture

HSIA-101: We need to identify the Human Systems Integration (HSI) – relevant crew health and performance outcomes, measures, and metrics, needed to characterize and mitigate risk, for future exploration missions.

HSIA-201: We need to evaluate the demands of future exploration habitat/vehicle systems and mission scenarios (e.g. increased automation, multi-modal communication) on individuals and teams, and determine the risks these demands pose to crew health and performance.

HSIA-401: We need to determine how HSI can be applied in the vehicle/habitat and computer interface Design Phase to mitigate potential decrements in operationally-relevant performance (e.g. problem-solving, execution procedures), during increasingly earth-independent, future exploration missions (including in-mission and at landing).

HSIA-701: We need to determine how human-automation-robotic systems can be optimized for effective enhancement and monitoring of crew capabilities, health, and performance, during increasingly earth-independent, future exploration missions (including in-mission and at landing).
