The use of telerobots in remote locations allows humans to extend their capabilities to distant and hazardous environments. Although safer for the operator, this extension of capabilities comes at a price. Due to communication across great distances, experiencing time delays of up to several seconds is common. Any time delay in the human/robot interaction can significantly degrade the effectiveness of operator control. This paper will looks at two common instances of human-in-the-loop command of robots: command of vehicle motion and command of a manipulator to perform an assembly task. Results from three studies are summarized to show the degradation in performance caused by varying levels of time delay.
