Teleoperations in terrestrial environments present a number of challenges to system operators and designers. Transmission lags, restricted visual fields, and reduced or distorted tactile/kinesthetic feedback can compromise performance, especially for innerloop control tasks (e.g., vehicle or manipulator control). These problems are likely to be exacerbated in lunar operations, since teleoperation may occur across large distances. Further, the lunar environment will introduce unique concerns. For example, the teleoperated systems will reflect the reduced gravity of the moon. In addition to the novelty of these dynamics, operators will often have to cope with them while physically located in a terrestrial or microgravity environment. Similarly, the optical characteristics of the lunar environment differ from our usual experience (e.g., lack of atmospheric attenuation) in ways that may impact normative depth, distance, and motion perception. These human factors issues are related to the question of humans adapting to a lunar environment. However, teleoperations requires the operator to maintain functionality in both the control station and end-effector environments, defeating more straightforward environmental adaptation strategies.
