- Improved work/sleep schedules and workplace lighting developed for astronauts can assist any workers who perform high-demand tasks during the night or on extended shifts (>8 hours), such as hospital medical staff and emergency response crews, homeland security workers, airline pilots, truck drivers, and military personnel.
- Optimization of human/robot interfaces and computer displays accomplished by NSBRI researchers could prevent dangerous and costly operator errors in industries that utilize robots, complex computers and programmed machinery. Software developed to predict and avoid errors can also reduce the risk of costly mistakes by air-traffic controllers, airline pilots, personnel in manufacturing plants, oil rig workers, and surgeons using robotic devices.
- Findings by the NSBRI scientists will guide efforts to make more effective inhaled medications.
