It provides data supporting experiments that are affected by local accelerations and contributes to the characterization of the ISS environment. The system consists of a control unit (providing control, data recording, analysis and downlink), remote triaxial sensors (measuring experiment-specific locations chosen by the users), and ground operations equipment (serving as the gateway enabling investigators to command and control measurements).
