Hands-on Aerospace: Intro to Humans in Aerospace & Man Vehicle Laboratory Tour

Morrisa Brenner

Jan/14 Thu 10:00AM-11:00AM 33-419, will walk indoors to MVL.

Enrollment: Unlimited Enrollment. Advance sign-up requested but not required.

Learn about humans in aerospace -- human factors in engineering, air traffic control, human-robot interaction, and more.  Then join us for a tour of the MIT Man Vehicle Lab (MVL).  Founded in 1962, MVL's goal is to better define the physiological and cognitive limitations of pilots and passengers of aircraft and spacecraft, and to optimize overall human-vehicle system effectiveness and safety.

[This activity is part of the Hands-On Aerospace series sponsored by Aero/Astro running Jan 11-15.  Participants welcome at individual sessions; priority may be given to registered class members and undergraduates.  See the Hands-On Aerospace listing for full schedule.]
