- Abstract
Recent advances in electronics and computers are widely used in present-day physiological equipment. Microprocessors are part of hardware complexes and nonstandard equipment. This increases significantly experimenter's capabilities in terms of experimental control and data processing and storage. These trends acquire great significance for the production of space-oriented research equipment in which automation of experimental control and data processing is highly important. Examples of experimental equipment for space physiology studies designed and developed through cooperative efforts of the USSR, socialist countries, NASA, ESA, and CERMA are considered.
