Fine Motor Skills (FMS) Software Application

About this technology

Overview

The Fine Motor Skills (FMS) software test battery is designed to collect data from multiple tasks that are indicative of fine motor performance. It was developed to evaluate the effect of microgravity on the sensorimotor system during 6 month and 1 year missions on the International Space Station (ISS). The application runs on an iOS platform, and is intended for use on an iPad. The data recorded on the iPad can be sent to a server or retrieved from iTunes directly from the device. The FMS app can be accessed at the Apple app store, with more details and instructions available at: https://www.nasa.gov/content/spaceflight-human-factors
