Abstract
The innate and state-of-the-art limitations on human operator manual control speed, frequency, and flexibility are reviewed and analyzed. Advanced manual control techniques for overcoming these limitations are suggested and research relating to these suggestions is reviewed. It is concluded that a considerable increase in human operator response speed, frequency, and flexibility could accrue from use of the suggested manual control techniques.Keywords
