Additional light, suction, and tool holders easily fold out from drawer or
extend from medical system module
Diagnostic equipment easily accessible
Primary and secondary displays allow for diagnostic data & alternate video/diagram
display
Medical teleconference / Remote surgery
One-Touch emergency button positions medical equipment
16.
17. Table for other functions will be used as a maintenance
work area
Standard space tool-kit will be equipped in crew station
Tools will be located in accessible areas close to table
for easy to reach use amongst crewmembers
18. Individual storage units for entertainment/ media
Equipment and interfaces providing flexibility and
multiple functions
i.e. video teleconferencing, medical consultations, and other
entertainment or emergency functions
Entertainment system (display/ audio) will include a
network file access
i.e. music, video, documents, and pictures
Vehicle status will be displayed while entertainment
system is inactive
19. Add an xHab inspired course to the ERAU curriculum
ABET accredited
Multi-Discipline team
ERAU program open to students and faculty from all departments
Fall 2014
Learn about tools used for design and evaluation
Learn research techniques and how to write proposals
CATIA, Google Sketch Up, ARENA
Spring 2014
