Abstract
The continuing advancement of technological development will require submarine control rooms of the future to process greater volumes of data from next-generation sensors. The requirements placed upon future submarine control rooms might necessitate changes to their ways of working to maintain effective performance. The Command Team Experimental Test-Bed (ComTET) is a project that aims to evaluate future ways of working through systematic, repeatable, and statistically robust experimentation. As part of the ComTET program, novel User Interfaces (UI) are being designed and evaluated. The design process utilised for the development of the novel UIs was the Google Ventures design sprint methodology, with the aim of leveraging expert participants experience and recommendations to inform future interface design requirements and novel concepts. The current work describes a three-day workshop that was held to design these interfaces and presents the resultant prototype designs.
