Astronaut neuromotor health,
in every push-off.

In microgravity, locomotion occurs through handrail push-offs. By instrumenting the entire translation bar with a dense 10 × 10 mm tactile sensor matrix in a repeating 3–2–2–3 pattern, we capture contact dynamics, multi-digit load sharing, 8–12 Hz micro-tremor, and autonomic arousal to evaluate psychological and cognitive health in real time.

Every parameter can be adjusted in real time. Hover or read the explanations below to understand how each variable informs astronaut health monitoring.

CALIBRATION ENGINE

🚀 Propulsion Impulse (N·s) 12.4 N·s

Integral of normal force over push-off duration (∫ F dt). Determines takeoff velocity across the cabin. Higher values indicate energetic locomotion.

〰️ 8–12 Hz Micro-Tremor (mm/s²) 0.82 mm/s²

Involuntary physiological neuromuscular oscillations in the 8–12 Hz band. Primary biomarker for central nervous system fatigue and sensorimotor ataxia.

⚡ Autonomic EDA / GSR (μS) 3.2 μS

Palmar skin conductance driven by sympathetic nervous system activation. Elevates instantly under acute cognitive demand, anxiety, or stress.

⏱️ Pre-Propulsion Dwell (ms) 290 ms

Contact dwell latency before takeoff initiation (Hesitation Index). Reflects motor planning latency, cognitive uncertainty, or tactile confidence.

📏 Handrail Dimensions (mm) 600 × 32 mm

Physical length and cylindrical diameter. Modifying length adjusts total sensor count (150 cells for 600 mm, 120 cells for 480 mm).
