Automation and Robotics for Space-Based Systems-1991A NASA Langley workshop on Automation and Robotics for Space-Based Systems was held on December 10, 1991. This conference proceedings document presents the overhead slides from each speaker at this event. The purpose of this in-house workshop was to assess the state-of-the-art of automation and robotics for space operations from a LaRC perspective and to identify areas of opportunity for future research. The workshop was sponsored by the Guidance, Navigation, and Control Technical Committee, chaired by Mr. Raymond C. Montgomery. Nineteen talks were given, reflecting a high level of interest in the field of automation at NASA Langley. Over half of the presentations came from the Automation Technology Branch, covering telerobotic control, EVA and IVA robotics, hand controllers for teleoperation, sensors, neural networks, and automated structural assembly, all applied to space missions. Other talks covered RMS active damping augmentation, space crane work, modeling, simulation, and control of large, flexible space manipulators, and virtual passive controller designs for space robots.
