Title

Human Robotic Partnerships for Exploration

Description

This session addresses where robotic and human elements contribute to deliver value greater than either working alone. The session will examine how robotic systems (tools, rovers, etc) can improve the range, safety, duration or cost of human exploration – from on-orbit telepresence to assistance and autonomy on the surfaces of the Moon, asteroids and Mars. Concepts of operation for joint human/robotic activities will be reviewed.
