Canada is also supplying the Canadian Space Vision System (CSVS) to support robotic operations. Because it is difficult to sense depth in space, the CSVS will give astronauts precise information as to the position and orientation of the large objects that they are handling or docking using the Canadian robotic system thus increasing the efficiency and safety of their operations.

OBS

Canadian space vision system; CSVS: term and abbreviation officially approved by the International Space Station official approval Group (ISSOAG).

CONT

Le Canada fournit également le Système canadien de vision spatiale (CSVS) pour appuyer les opérations en robotique. Comme il est difficile de mesurer la profondeur dans l'espace, le CSVS donnera aux astronautes des informations précises sur la position et l'orientation des objets imposants qui devront être manipulés ou amarrés à l'aide du système robotique canadien. Le CSVS permettra donc d'améliorer l'efficacité et la sécurité des opérations.

OBS

système canadien de vision spatiale; CSVS : terme et abréviation uniformisés par le Groupe de travail de la terminologie de la Station spatiale internationale (GTTSSI).
