Design for a space mission
Design the telemetry data interface for Iris Rover, which will land on the Moon in 2021.
Iris rover is the first private academic rover developed by Carnegie Mellon University, NASA and Astrobotic, and will land on the Moon in July 2021.
Problem
When the Iris Rover lands on the Moon, sensors onboard will start to monitor components on the rover. How could operators monitor the health of the rover and troubleshoot when anomalies occur?
Solution
A telemetry data dashboard is created to present operators the data from onboard sensors and also enables operators to look into detailed data and troubleshoot anomalies.

Duration
Sep, 2019 - Present
A data panel for use by space rover operators that monitor the rover and troubleshoot anomalies during the mission
Dashboard
To give operators a holistic view on the status of the rover.
Detail pages
To enable operators to do further investigation on sensors.
Error tagging
To guide operators to document errors or anomalies during the mission.
Error analysis
To help operators investigate errors by showing data across different sensors.
Value proposition
1.
A holistic view of sensors on the dashboard informs operators of the status of the rover quickly.
2.
Detailed historical data pages enable operators to investigate abnormalities efficiently.
3.
Error marking process enables operators to document abnormalities for future study/investigation easily.
4.
All-embracing data on the error analysis page improves troubleshooting efficiency.
