Robonaut Project

JSC2004-E-16339 (March 2004) --- Robonaut - which uses a head, torso, arms and dexterous hands to perform tasks using the same tools used by human spacewalkers – has both hands free once its leg is anchored in a standard Work Interface Facility (WIF) attached to the test panel. The Robonaut Project is a collaborative effort with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), and has been under development at Johnson Space Center (JSC) for several years.
