Project Synopsis: The objective of the EDGE program is to develop the tools necessary to create, measure, and test human-machine interfaces that provide enough situational awareness of a system’s processes and status, in addition to its operational environment, for the operator to adapt the system in off-nominal situations. EDGE seeks design capabilities that will be fast, quantifiable and repeatable enough for effective HMI concept design, development and testing to be integrated into the larger systems design and development process.
