Abstract

The replacement of the large center screen displays at the Houston Mission Control Center (MCC) is complicated by the unique requirements of the Flight Controller user. These requirements demand a very high performance, full color projection system capable of the display of high resolution text, graphics and images produced in near real time. This paper describes the current system to he replaced, the replacement system requirements, the efforts necessary to procure the major element of this system (the projector) for the government, and how the new capabilities are to be integrated into the existing MCC operational configuration.
