Telerobotics, Automation, and Human Supervisory Control$72.61
For the past three decades, the author and his colleagues in the MIT Man-Machine Systems Laboratory have been carrying out experimental research in the area of teleoperation, telerobotics, and supervisory control - a new form of technology that allows humans to work through machines in hazardous environments and control complex systems such as aircraft and nuclear power plants. This timely reference brings together a variety of theories and technologies that have emerged in a number of fields of application, describing common themes, presenting experiments and hardware embodiments as examples, and discussing the advantages and the drawbacks of this new form of human-machine interaction. There are many places - such as outer space, the oceans, and nuclear, biologically, and chemically toxic environments - that are; inaccessible or hazardous to humans but in which work needs to be done. Telerobotics - remote supervision by human operators of robotic or semi-automatic devices - is a way to enter these difficult environments. Yet it raises a host of problems, such as the retrieval of sensory information for the human operator and how to control the remote devices with sufficient dexterity. In its complete coverage of the theoretical and technological aspects of telerobotics and human-computer cooperation in the control of complex systems, this book moves beyond the simplistic notion of humans versus automation to provide the necessary background for exploring a new and informed cooperative relationship, between humans and machines.

Durante las tres décadas pasadas, el autor y sus colegas en el Laboratorio de Sistemas de Máquina de hombre MIT han estado realizando la investigación experimental en el área de teleoperation, telerobotics, y control de supervisor - una nueva forma de la tecnología que permite que la gente trabaje por máquinas en ambientes arriesgados y controle sistemas complejos como avión y centrales nucleares. Esta referencia oportuna junta una variedad de teorías y tecnologías que han surgido en varios campos de la aplicación, describiendo temas comunes, presentando experimentos y encarnaciones de hardware como ejemplos, y hablando de las ventajas y los inconvenientes de esta nueva forma de la interacción de máquina humana. Hay muchos sitios - como espacio exterior, los océanos, y nucleares, biológicamente, y ambientes por medios químicos tóxicos - que son; inaccesible o arriesgado a la gente pero en que el trabajo tiene que ser hecho. Telerobotics - la supervisión remota por operadores humanos de dispositivos robóticos o semiautomáticos - es un modo de entrar en estos ambientes difíciles. Aún esto levanta a un anfitrión de problemas, como la recuperación de la información sensorial para el operador humano y como controlar los dispositivos remotos con la destreza suficiente. En su cobertura completa de los aspectos teóricos y tecnológicos de telerobotics y cooperación de computadora humana en el control de sistemas complejos, este libro se mueve más allá de la noción simplista de la gente contra la automatización para proporcionar el fondo necesario para explorar una relación cooperativa nueva e informada, entre gente y máquinas.
