The Cognition
Laboratory is a part of the Human-Automation Integration Research Branch at NASA
Ames Research Center. We conduct research which involves modeling the human
operator in human-machine systems and experiments on normal human perceptual and
cognitive processes. Current modeling efforts focus on the task of the human
operator in Air Traffic Control. Experiments range from basic to applied. All
experiments are administered via computer, with participants watching the
monitor and answering by using the keyboard or mouse. Examples of experiments
include attentional control, dual-tasking, and the detection of conflicts in an
Air Traffic Control display.
Moonbase Alpha is a new online game developed by NASA to be played on the Steam online gaming platform. Moonbase Alpha a simulation/ role playing game in which players assume the role of an astronaut working to repair equipment in order to restore oxygen delivery to a settlement on the moon. The game can be played by up to six players at a time who communicate using voice over communication.
We are proud to announce the Operational release of "Reverb", the next generation metadata and service discovery tool. Reverb has been developed utilizing modern web development technologies and presents you with a fresh new look and interface for discovering Earth Science data. We invite you to give it a try and let us know what you think. Reverb will be continually updated on a monthly basis taking into account your user feedback and other enhancements which are currently planned. Your feedback will be critical in us ensuring that you are able to find and access the data you need in the best way possible.
