`
`The Ames HCI Group contributes to the development of measurably
`better NASA software through careful application of HCI methods. We
`follow an iterative process that consists of user research, interaction
`design, and usability evaluation. It is commonly assumed that HCI is
`exclusively focused on the interface. We are focused on the users and
`their goals in order to build the right tool which means that we are
`focused on functionality as well as interface.
`
`Mixed-Initiative Planning
`
`Planning for space operations is complex and requires consideration of
`many kinds of information. Tools built to support planning must
`balance power and usability, and must offer some level of integration
`with other tools and information sources that support a mission.
`
`Collaborative Decision Making
`
`We study how to build tools to manage data, facilitate communication,
`and support decision making in the aerospace domain. We place a
`particular emphasis on understanding how decision support systems
`can be integrated with the various processes and organizational
`structures present at NASA.
`
`New Concepts in HCI for Aerospace and Planetary
`Exploration
`
`In collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University, we explore emerging
`technologies and concepts that may shape the future of space
`exploration. Example domains include: Human Performance Modeling,
`Wearable Computing, Human-Robot Interaction, and Planetary
`Operations.
