A Zenith-386 workstation was outfitted with a DICRES-54.8 paralell port board to facilitate I/C between a large Summagrid x-y coordinate digital measurement pad that has a resolution of 10 microns. Film views of high energy particle collisions can be projected onto this pad for measurement. Voice prompts via a Votrax speech synthesis system are sent at critical points during the algorithm from the Z-386 through other ports of the DICRES board. Progress in measurement is fed into the Z-386's serial port from an Interstate voice recognition system at other points of the measurement algorithm. The whole measurement process is managed by an assembler language based modular computer program. / Department of Physics and Astronomy
