A Columbus Automation Testbed (CAT), developed to evaluate the benefits of Automation and Robotics (A and R) for payload operations and for familiarizing potential users, payload engineers and operators with A and R, is described. In particular CAT will permit: the benefits which the principle investigator will get from A and R utilization to be understood; the best task allocation between crew dedicated mechanisms and robots; assessment and validation of A and R interfaced within a Columbus environment; assessment and validation of A and R generational procedures and utilization scenarios; evaluation of potential growth for internal A and R. With respect to this last point, it has to be highlighted that CAT will be upgraded to further improve the fidelity and to integrate new experiments.
