We have two robotic arms, one mounted on rails, that allow users to test out their close proximity operations and in-orbit servicing and manufacturing technologies. The robots simulate a micro-gravity environment allowing users to validate their technologies prior to launch. Technologies that could be validated on the system include guidance sensors & software, docking mechanisms and servicing robots.
With tracking systems and advanced motion control, the system can achieve high levels of accuracy and repeatability allowing representative mission testing to be carried out.
