<p> Equipment Fabrication: Mobile Operator Workstation Console</p><p>Humans and Automation Laboratory Massachusetts Institute of Technology November 23, 2005</p><p>A core element in the HAL Complex Team Operation Center will be four mobile operator workstation consoles. Each of these workstation consoles will comprise a solid, yet mobile support structure for a reconfigurable, multi-monitor operator display component consisting of the SpaceDec triple monitor support and three 17-inch flat panel LCD monitors, and a shelf or wire rack to house the operator computer workstation (see Figure 1). </p><p>To stabilize the weight of the reconfigurable, multi-monitor display component, the SpaceDec monitor support must be permanently affixed to the workstation console using the provided bolt-through post assembly into a 35mm-75mm thick drillable surface. A 9mm drill hole will be required. This is illustrated in Figure 2. </p><p>To enable easy reconfiguration of the operator workstation consoles within the Complex Team Operation Center, the operator computer workstations will: - be housed on a shelf or wire rack permanently attached to the workstation console, and - sit on lockable wheels.</p><p>While each of the parts can be purchased separately (displays, tables, posts, etc.), significant fabrication effort is need to build each workstation and then connect the many computer-based devices.</p><p>FRONT VIEW</p><p>17-inch LCD</p><p>17-inch LCD TOP VIEW 23.2’’ (58.7cm) 17-inch LCD 7’’ (17.7cm)</p><p>SpaceDec Triple Arm monitor stand 14.07’’ (35.74cm) 14.07’’ (35.74cm)</p><p>SpaceDec bolt 9mm drill hole for SpaceDec through assembly bolt through assembly</p><p>28.75’’ (73cm) operator computer Front of operator workstation workstation console</p><p> support shelf for computer workstation</p><p> lockable wheels</p><p>28.5’’ (72.4cm) Figure 1.
