Efforts to control remote manipulators in simulated microgravity described in report. Experiments conducted to determine effects of weightlessness on performance of operator controlling remote manipulator, or slave arm, by master arm at control station. Report concludes microgravity disturbs neuromotor control of human arm. Also suggests disturbance compensated for by adjustments in controller.
