iMETRO is a facility designed to catalyze the adaptation of advanced terrestrial robotic technologies for space exploration use cases - such as logistics, maintenance, and science utilization within environments designed for human exploration on the Lunar and Martian surfaces.
4
-
The iMETRO focus is on Intra-Vehicular Activity (IVA) environments, such as surface habitats, pressurized rover cabins, and space station internal modules.
5
-
The iMETRO goal is to increase the availability of end-to-end systems enabling remote operation of robots in space supervised by humans on Earth.

iMETRO is a robotics facility housed at NASA's Johnson Space Center with the goal of adapting advanced terrestrial robotic technologies for space exploration applications such as logistics, maintenance, and science utilization tasks.
6
+
These applications are designed for human exploration environments on space stations or the Lunar and Martian surfaces.
7
+
The high fidelity mockups, test beds, and end-to-end systems provided can be used to develop capabilities that enable remote operation of robots in space supervised by humans on Earth.
8
+
Particular focus is given to Intra-Vehicular Activity (IVA) environments of surface habitats, pressurized rover cabins, and space station internal modules.
