“…It has completed many OOS missions on the space shuttle, including deploying and recovering payloads, constructing the ISS, and supporting astronaut EVAs to repair the Hubble Space Telescope, as shown in Figure 2a. [11][12][13][14][15] The SRMS is the first space manipulator system in human history, providing significant experience in developing the Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS).…”

Space robots play a significant role in on‐orbit servicing (OOS) missions, such as inspecting, capturing, refueling, and repairing satellites, assembling and maintaining large space infrastructure, and removing orbital debris. Over the past four decades, many space robot engineering applications and technology verifications for OOS have been accomplished. This article comprehensively reviews the advances by representative space robotic programs on space shuttles, outside/inside the International Space Station and the China Space Station, as well as on satellites, and the development trends of space robots are summarized. In addition, the primary key technologies and challenges are explored, including the following: 1) visual perception for noncooperative targets; 2) motion planning and control with a free‐floating base and flexibility; 3) multifunctional end‐effectors; 4) ground teleoperation with long time delays; and 5) high‐fidelity ground verification. Finally, the prospects for space robot future research are presented.

The space manipulator which is mounted on a space structure or spacecraft to manipulate space payloads is important for the on-orbit-servicing. Its manipulation tasks depend on its end-effector. The flexibility of the large space manipulator will result in residual vibration on its tip, and let the manipulator have poor capability of end positioning. To overcome the drawbacks mentioned-above, the end-effector needs strong capability of misalignment tolerance and soft capturing. On the base of these requirements and analysis, two kinds of end-effector schemes are presented and designed in detail. The essential performances are in comparison based on the results of dynamic simulations and experiments. Consequently, the conclusion is drawn that the steel cable-snared end-effector which captures the interface by winding the grapple fixture probe, is the best scheme that can combine the ability of soft capturing and great misalignment tolerance perfectly.
