Human factor roles in design of teleoperator systems

Teleoperator systems are considered, giving attention to types of teleoperators, a manned space vehicle attached manipulator, a free-flying teleoperator, a surface exploration roving vehicle, the human factors role in total system design, the manipulator system, the sensor system, the communication system, the control system, and the mobility system. The role of human factors in the development of teleoperator systems is also discussed, taking into account visual systems, an operator control station, and the manipulators.
