This project will leverage existing capabilities of an augmented reality (AR) sensorimotor assessment tool. Currently, the tool mimics the capabilities of validated 2-dimensional (2D) assessments. While this modality is well-aligned with seated interactions with flight-deck displays, extravehicular activity (EVA) tasks will require full body mobility wherein astronauts reach and bend in a 3-dimensional (3D) space. These types of motions, naturally including head movements, are known to elicit experiences of disorientation. Thus, sensorimotor assessments that include these stimulations and larger movements are important for understanding astronaut readiness prior to initial EVAs. The proposed effort will extend the current 2D eye-hand coordination task in AR to a 3D task designed to evaluate dynamic balance and eye-hand-body coordination. The new module will extend the range of motion and interaction space such that it better aligns with operational task needs for astronaut readiness evaluation.
