Abstract

The paper presents the main components of the preliminary research in developing an IOS (Instructor Operator Station) as a testing system for components, algorithms and human reactions in related space applications i.e. spacecraft docking. The mechanical, actuating and control solution for the IOS test bench is considered. The contributions are the result of a joint activity between teams from the DSSL (Dynamic Systems Simulation Laboratory) and CESTER.
