NASA space station automation: AI-based technology review
Research and Development projects in automation for the Space Station are discussed. Artificial Intelligence (AI) based automation technologies are planned to enhance crew safety through reduced need for EVA, increase crew productivity through the reduction of routine operations, increase space station autonomy, and augment space station capability through the use of teleoperation and robotics. AI technology will also be developed for the servicing of satellites at the Space Station, system monitoring and diagnosis, space manufacturing, and the assembly of large space structures
NASA space station automation: AI-based technology review. Executive summary

Artificial Intelligence (AI) based technologies are planned to enhance crew safety through reduced need for EVA, increase crew productivity through the reduction of routine operations, increase space station autonomy, and augment space station capability through the use of teleoperation and robotics
Mission Control Concepts for Robotic Operations: Existing approaches and new Solutions
This paper gives a preliminary overview on activities
within the currently ongoing Mission Control Concepts
for Robotic Operations (MICCRO) study.
The aim of the MICCRO study is to reveal commonalities
in the operations of past, current and future robotic
space missions in order to find an abstract, representative
mission control concept applicable to multiple future
missions with robotic systems involved. The existing
operational concepts, responsibilities and information
flows during the different mission phases are taken into
account.
A particular emphasis is put on the possible interaction
between different autonomous components (on-board
and on-ground), their synchronisation and the possible
shift of autonomy borders during different mission
phases
Next generation space robot
The recent research effort on the next generation space robots is presented. The goals of this research are to develop the fundamental technologies and to acquire the design parameters of the next generation space robot. Visual sensing and perception, dexterous manipulation, man machine interface and artificial intelligence techniques such as task planning are identified as the key technologies
