Automation in teleoperation from a man-machine interface viewpointTeleoperation can be defined as the use of robotic devices having mobility, manipulative and some sensing capabilities, and remotely controlled by a human operator. The purpose of this paper is to discuss and exemplify technology issues related to the use of robots as man-extension or teleoperator systems in space. The main thrust of the paper is focused at research and development in the area of sensing- and computer-based automation from the viewpoint of man-machine interface devices and techniques. The objective of this R and D effort is to render space teleoperation efficient and safe through the use of devices and techniques which will permit integrated and task-level ('intelligent') two-way control communication between human operator and teleoperator machine in earth orbit.
