Abstract:In recent years, the interest in proximity operations to uncooperative and non-collaborative objects has been growing and and demanding for specific technology advances to tackle these challenging cases of in-orbit servicing and removal missions. Indeed, these architectures hold a crucial role in guaranteeing future sustainable and efficient space operations. One of the main challenges of conducting robotic operations with a chaser in close proximity to an uncooperative object stems from its rotational motion.… Show more
