                          This man/machine research program addressed
                          the fundamental problems of input i.e. modeling; and the real-time
                          interaction issues of dealing with computer simulated models.

1976-1978         Grant from NASA for "Innovative Concepts in Large Area
                          Space Structures." ($33,000.00).
