Aerospace Applications North America, Inc. is a Texas-based Corporation specializing in Human-Machine Interface.
Our company was incorporated in October 2004, around the time NASA announced the development of the Orion spacecraft. Our experience with spacecraft cockpit prototyping, from our involvement with the X38 and other projects, allowed us to get quickly selected to participate in the design of the Orion cockpit, which has since then been our major focus of activity.
In March 2019 the company started to offer ICE Cubes Service in the United States. The ICE Cubes platform, developed by our parent company, provides a low-cost way to fly experiments to the International Space Station.
Aerospace Applications North America, Inc. was incorporated in Texas in October 2004 after the completion of a successful series of human machine interface design projects for the European Space Agency in collaboration with NASA. These projects took place at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, and spread over a 5-year timeframe, starting with an involvement in the X38 project. When NASA announced the development of the Orion spacecraft, Space Applications Services, our Belgian parent company, decided to establish a US subsidiary to provide services directly to NASA. Thanks to our past experience, our company was quickly able to get involved with the design of the Orion spacecraft cockpit, which has been our main focus of activity ever since.
Over the years we have been intimately involved in defining, prototyping and evaluating early user interface concepts, designing and testing display formats for the various systems, building fully functional cockpit mockups to provide realistic simulation of the spacecraft operation during the display format evaluation campaigns, and implementing automated processes to document and pre-verify the resulting display software.
Human-centered engineering solutions
The main focus of our company is to provide human-centered solutions and engineering services for on-board and on-ground command and control of aircraft and space vehicles. Our expertise covers:
Our experience includes:
Custom software solutions
Although Aerospace Applications North America’s core expertise is with the aerospace industry, we also provide that experience to other industries.
Whether you are a space or aircraft manufacturer, financial institution, hotel, restaurant or travel agency; we can provide you with the specific software solution you need. Whether you are a government institution, a small business or large corporation; we are dedicated to satisfy your software needs and budget.
Aerospace Applications North America is a small business founded by engineers. We understand the value of a sound working environment where both employees and employer can grow and flourish. Not only are our services and solutions focused on the human, the company as a whole is.
If you would like to be part of a company, actively participate and not just be another employee, then you are the person we are looking for.
