  NASA Johnson Space Center

  • Chief, Systems Architecture and Integration Office.

    • 2007 - 2009

    Mr. Guy was responsible for managing the major projects of the Engineering Directorate. He managed 1) developing the docking system, and 2) re-entry parachute system for the spacecrafts to be used in the future exploration of space; as well as, 3) providing the Systems Engineering and SE&I leadership for the Constellation Space Flight Program. In addition, he was responsible for developing and providing to NASA's then-current flight programs -- Shuttle and Station -- equipment for maintaing the health and vigor of the on-orbit crews. In addition, his organization provided the shuttle wing-impact sensors for each flight, and supported the real-time assessment of potential Shuttle impact by debris for each mission..

    • 1990 - 2007

    Mr. Guy was responsible for the robotic and AI endeavors of JSC. His organization provided technical expertise and support for flight programs. This included the in-space robotic manipulators for the nations spaceflight projects – Shuttle and Station. He was also responsible for technology advancement in the robotic domain: e.g., 1) the development of technology for a robotic “flying eye” for on-orbit inspection; 2) an anthropomorphic robot as an astronaut “surrogate”; and 3) a robotic “rover” for astronaut exploration of a planetary surface. In addition, 1) he managed the largest real-time, engineering simulation facility at JSC (used for comprehensive technical studies and astronaut training for Shuttle,Station, and Orion); 2) the EVA/Robotic Virtual Reality Lab (also used for engineering studies and astronaut training); 3) and the Shuttle's and Station's full-scale Robotic Manipulators used for astronaut training..
