Selection Matrix

Introduction:

The selection matrix has helped us determine what previous solutions using a GUI best meet the prerequisites regarding the Nanolab GUI requested from NASA. Our past solutions were past or current NASA experiments that implement a GUI for purposes that were similar to the NASA needs for the Nanolabs such as by simply giving the average person information about current NASA missions to the oxygen transfer rate on Mars. By basing the past previous solution on specifications that are most necessary for NASA researchers, we are able to narrow down our solution to the best topic.

Results:

The Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment GUI (MOXIE) was a solution that best met the needs of NASA researchers when compared to the needs of Nanoracks. MOXIE provided researchers with data, and provided the researchers with graphics that they were able to see and analyze. MOXIE also integrated data from equipment/hardware which is similar to the Nanolab GUI that needs to record data from the sensors regarding each Nanolab experiment.
