In the Body Rotation Device(BRD) the astronauts sit in the experiment's chair and become the test subjects. Experiments conducted with BRD will study vestibular reactions in the astronauts as they are spun around in the chair. Test conductors can change what the astronauts see as they are spun and video cameras watch their eyes and record their reactions. The spinning astronaut keeps his thumb on a "kill switch" to stop the chair when it starts to become too much to handle. Scientists will use data from the experiments conducted with BRD to help in the design of more effective rehabilitation procedures in patients with severe inner ear diseases.  3, fiche 2, Anglais, - body%20rotating%20device

Trois fois par semaine, je dois procéder à un entraînement, dit vestibulaire, sur une chaise tournante. Le système vestibulaire est localisé dans l'oreille interne et il sert à garder l'équilibre. Dans l'espace, le système est évidemment perturbé, comme quand, assis sur une chaise tournante, vous êtes pris de vertige et que vous ne vous sentiez pas très bien. [...] Cet entraînement doit aider à surmonter le mal de l'espace, qui gêne bien des astronautes.  2, fiche 2, Français, - chaise%20tournante

MILES is a system the Army uses for wargames. You mount a small box, the transmitter, on the end of the barrel of your weapon, and wear a harness that has several straps on the front and back with infrared receptors on them. You also have a key that is normally in the transmitter to enable it. The transmitter has a microphone in it, and whenever a shot is fired, the sound causes it to fire a coded IR laser beam. The sensors on the harness are wired to a box on the back which detects when you have been hit. If you are, a beeper starts sounding loudly. To turn it off you have to take the key out of the transmitter, thus disabling it, and put it in a switch in the harness. Then you are "dead", and have to wait for an observer to come around with a special key that can reset the harness. They can also use the God gun, which is so called because it can fire pulses that will "kill" you like the other transmitters, but it can also fire pulses that reset your harness(bring you back to life...)  1, fiche 3, Anglais, - God%20gun
