Autonomous Solutions has always paid particular attention to the interfaces that operators must use. We strive to make the human/machine interface effective, efficient, and satisfying to use. The Mobius software interface was built in part on research into the interfaces used in strategy computer games, providing a direct link to a behavioral schema already possessed by many users. This schema is itself based on the simple "using a map" behavior almost universally understood by adults, and integrates the "tool palette" long familiar to computer users. Mobius can be learned in a matter of minutes, and experimentation with the interface yields the clues necessary for a new user to become proficient simply by using the product.

Mobius also includes a full set of integrated help in the form of tooltips and property explanations.

For single vehicle applications, where a static, simplified interface is more appropriate, a "run screen" can be created that reduces operation to a few clear and simple controls. These are also particularly good for outdoor use, where their larger, high-contrast controls are more visible.

For teleoperation of vehicles, our OCUs are specifically designed for the type of use they will see.
