  • Abstract
    Supervisory control has been suggested as a means to improve the capabilities of remotely controlled underwater manipulators. This paper describes the implementation of such a system. The development is part of a joint effort between the Man-Machine Systems Laboratory at MIT and the Naval Ocean Systems Center, San Diego and includes experimentation both in the laboratory and in the water. The system will be used to experimentally investigate man- machine communication concepts and to demonstrate technology of interest to the offshore community.
