| Popis: | The paper outlines the long-term space robotics projects as well as recent results in DLR's robotics laboratory. The driving force behind all the efforts made in hardware and software development is to design highly integrated robot systems which can be utilized in space, especially for extravehicular activities. Our envisaged field of application reaches from servicing satellites in low Earth and geostationary orbit to space stations as well as planetary exploration robots, all of them fully ground controlled from Earth. The ground control concept is based on the MARCO architecture, which was verified in a few space robotics projects over recent years. It includes taskoriented programming capabilities for autonomous robot control at the remote site as well as methods for direct telemanipulation by means of virtual reality and telepresence techniques, which allows a realistic feeling for the ground operator via visual and haptic feedback devices. In addition to the control techniques, a new generation of ... |
