Abstract
This work describes the participatory design and development of a Virtual Camera (VC) system to improve astronaut and mission operations exploration efficiency and cooperation while exploring in deep space. Advanced interaction media capabilities can improve exploration efficiency and cooperation as the distribution of human space exploration roles change in deep space exploration. This capability was developed in a tablet-based application that was evaluated in the field. The VC can minimize the risk of astronauts exploring unknown reaches of the solar system with limited previous knowledge of the area under exploration. Ground-based expert knowledge can be captured and be easily assessable in the remote deep space environment with the VC. The human-centered method of development and testing is described as well as results.
