Center Innovation Fund: SSC CIF
Mobile Platform Development for SSC Propulsion Test Operations, Year 2
Project Description
For this project, the possible utility of a mobile application in combination with portable electronic tools/tablets, which could be used in real-time "in the field", at propulsion testing locations across Stennis Space Center (SSC) was assessed. The objective was to have participating field personnel consider the utility of mobile computing platforms, and assess if in combination with correspondingly developed mobile applications, could be used to collect data in the rocket engine propulsion test environment.

Anticipated Benefits
Benefits to NASA funded missions include: increased efficiencies in productivity; increased accuracy and timeliness of test documentation submission; and decreased paper waste. Across the Nation, commercial industry and organizations in the public and private sectors, continue to look for and develop mobile application platforms and mobile apps (due to the wide reach and easy accessibility) so that capabilities which help modernize monitoring capabilities by building rich, connected interfaces, reduce the environmental impacts of paper waste, as well as help improve overall efficiencies and cost effectiveness nationwide. Benefits to the Nation's public and private sector organizations are associated with this continued migration and increasing adaption of mobile platform technology utilization.
