A general-purpose mobile robotics and teleoperations testbed is being developed for studying the application of telerobotics on the battlefield. The system, which will provide effective teleoperation capability and task-dependent, selectable robotic functions, will be used to address the functional feasibility of mobile telerobotics technology with emphasis on soldier-machine interface issues and allocation of operator control functions.
