Abstract

Robotic manipulators are essential for the construction and maintenance of the International Space Station (ISS). Manipulators will also be used to support experiments, extra-vehicular activity (EVA) and scientific activities onboard the ISS. The Canadian, Japanese and European Space Agencies are developing and delivering ‘robotic arms’, each with a specific role to play over the lifetime of the ISS. Each robotic manipulator has a unique design and task specific characteristics.
