This citation summarizes a one-page announcement of technology available for utilization. The sensors feed pitch and range information to a manned control station indicating how the claw is oriented relative to a mating fixture it is about to grasp. This system developed for coupling space vehicles can be used in other remote manipulators. ...FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Contact: Legal Office-JPL, Mail Code:180-801 4800 Oak Grove Dr, Pasadena, CA 91103.
