The Use Of Computer Graphic Simulation In The Development Of On-Orbit Tele-Robotic Systems

摘要

This paper describes the use of computer graphic simulation techniques to resolve critical design and operational issues for robotic systems used for on-orbit operations. The major design issues in developing effective telerobotic systems are discussed and the use of ROBOSIM, a NASA developed simulation tool, to address these issues is presented. Simulation plans for the Space Station and the Orbital Maneuvering Vehicle are presented and discussed.
