1 portunities for automation, and correlated these with research and develop- ment opportunities suggested by the current state of the art in automation and robotics. These potential areas of contact were organized into a matrix of research opportunities, which the panel then further classified in terms of its estimate of the potential for near-term, medium-term and long-term efforts to achieve the necesary research or development goals.
