Abstract :
Supervised robotics is the key to success for in-space servicing or other remote servicing operations. Advanced techniques include human-assisted vision processing, automatic calibration and retargeting, and advanced force compliant control macros. A combination of these techniques was developed and assembled in a laboratory experiment, demonstrating the flexible, robust and on-line interactive replacement of an orbit replaceable unit
