Project Title
SeeJitter
9F053-120260/A
Description of Project
Adaptation to the various stages of space flight places unique stresses on astronauts. Upon entering space and following their return to earth astronauts experience a variety of detrimental effects such as poor coordination, disorientation, and motion sickness. The majority suffer from at least some of these symptoms during space flight with impacts on their health, well-being and effectiveness. In this study the PI (Principal Investigator) will compare how astronauts sense their own self-motion (based on visual cues) in earth-normal gravity and in extended duration micro-g conditions when stationed on the ISS.
This Project is intended to define the framework for the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) to procure the hardware required for the SeeJitter experiment on-board the International Space Station (ISS). The selected contractor will develop the concept, design, manufacture, test and deliver the hardware (Phase A through D) and will provide operations and maintenance support (Phase E). The contractor will also provide flight software testing and verification services. Finally, the contractor may be asked to provide sustaining engineering in order to support the use of and/or adapt the hardware to other screen sizes within specifications in support of science initiatives from CSA and/or it's ISS International Partners .
