Using VR to improve the performance of low-earth orbit space robot operations.
The operations of current robotics systems in low-earth orbit could benefit from the use of virtual reality (VR) systems to improve their performance. This paper presents an example of the type of contribution such a system could provide to assist the space robot operators in their operations, by using the increased situational awareness and the ease of use associated with VR systems.
