Abstract
The Autonomy and Robotics Area (ARA) at NASA Ames Research Center has inves tigated the use of various types of Virtual Reality-based operator interfac es to remotely control complex robotic mechanisms. In this paper, we descri be the major accomplishments and technology applications of the ARA in this area, and highlight the advantages and issues related to this technology.
