Research topic 156 / 200

Scientific equipment models lack a clear sense of scale

Display models lack a clear connection to actual operating spaces, making them difficult for visitors to understand.

Research area: Space Science Outreach and Research TerminalsProblem identification → Design validation → Implementation

Three-step solution method

  1. Identify the operator positions, component dimensions and operating routes that need to be explained.
  2. Add real-world scale references and layered component annotations.
  3. Use guided model walkthroughs to test how visitors grasp scale and purpose.

Key Deliverables

  • Scale diagram
  • Display model
  • Interpretive materials

Verification Approach

Test how accurately people recount volume, roles and operating relationships.
