Acquisition and analysis of primate physiologic data for the Space Shuttle

APL is developing a multichannel data acquisition, telemetry, storage, and analysis system for use with nonhuman primates aboard NASA's space shuttle. The design and prototypes resulting from the current Physiologic Acquisition and Telernetry System Program are expected to lead to the development of spaceflight hardware that will be flown on Spacelab missions tentatively scheduled for 1993. Other potential uses for the system, including Space Station missions, are also being evaluated.
