16 -Astronauts are at all times required to provide outstanding performance. They are to remain resilient and to maintain their psychological well-being in order to successfully accomplish their mission in extreme and isolated environments. Future Martian explorers therefore have to be selected and trained to be able to deal with such environments and to be able to maintain an adaptive and resilient mind-set, communicate with others efficiently and pro-actively, process and accept worries and sadness, and to stay persistent with respect to the goals of the mission.
32 +Effective interaction between the analog astronaut and a remote rover is essential to take out full advantage of the supporting asset and to ensure a successful exploration during a mission. A rover is teleoperated via the Operator Control Unit (OCU). The physical distance from the operator and the robotic vehicle leads to poor situation awareness and may cause inadequate decision-making. The OCU must be designed wisely to ensure proper human-robot interaction.
17 17  
18 -In the course of the experiment, all six analog astronauts will be trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). In a wide range of studies, ACT has proven to increase people’s psychological flexibility; this is, their ability to pursue their important goals, even when they experience thoughts, feelings, fears, and emotions that may get in the way of their moving towards those goals. The ACT training will focus on providing key, practical skills that the participants can use in carrying out their daily activities, as well as in interacting with their colleagues. This study aims to assesses the ability of ACT to improve participants’ psychological flexibility, stress and well-being, performance and error measures, narrative contents and communication patterns, cognitive and physiological outcomes.
34 +MEROP improves the teleoperation of rovers by providing a problem-solving toolbox to the OCU. It addresses two major issues: situation awareness and communication. Unexpected, autonomous action of the robot may cause operator insecurity and influences situation awareness in a negative way. The second challenge deals with communication and communication reliability between the operator and the robot. Issues concerning bandwidth or loss of communication impose constant risks, which need to be mitigated.
19 19  
20 -The study will use a pre - post-test design. The pre-test will be completed by the participants before the ACT training, a post-test after completing the training. Further, a follow-up measure will be taken from participants at the end of their mission. Additional qualitative data will be collected from the analog astronauts in form of a diary.
36 +The expected outcome of the MEROP experiment is an improved teleoperation of robotic vehicles and the implementation of an effective visualization tool that support the flight planning team in the decision-making process.
21 21  
38 +To achieve experiment objectives, the MEROP team will implement a teleoperation interface, where the analog astronaut can choose between two interaction levels: Semi-autonomous teleoperation and direct teleoperation. Semi-autonomous teleoperation features indirect control of the robot using a virtual avatar and interface augmentation techniques. Direct teleoperation allows for the direct control of the robot to enhance situation awareness.
