Space robotics and autonomous systems (Space RAS) play a critical
role in the current and future development of mission-defined
machines that can survive in space while performing exploration,
assembly, construction, maintenance and servicing tasks. They
represent a multi-disciplinary emerging field at the intersection
of space engineering, terrestrial robotics, computer science and
materials. The field is essential to humankind's ability to explore
or operate in space; providing greater access beyond human
spaceflight limitations in the harsh environment of space, and
offering greater operational handling that extends astronauts'
capabilities. Space RAS covers all types of robotics for the
exploration of planet surfaces as well as robotics used in orbit
around the Earth and the sensors needed by the platform for
navigation or control. Written by a team of International experts
on space RAS, this book covers advanced research, technologies and
applications including: sensing and perception to provide
situational awareness for space robotic agents, explorers and
assistants; mobility to reach and operate at sites of scientific
interest on extra-terrestrial surfaces or free space environments
using locomotion; manipulations to make intentional changes in the
environment or objects using locomotion such as placing,
assembling, digging, trenching, drilling, sampling, grappling and
berthing; high-level autonomy for system and sub-systems to provide
robust and safe autonomous navigation, rendezvous and docking
capabilities and to enable extended-duration operations without
human interventions to improve overall performance of human and
robotic missions; human-robot interaction and multi-modal
interaction; system engineering to provide a framework for
understanding and coordinating the complex interactions of robots
and achieving the desired system requirements; verification and
validation of complex adaptive systems; modelling and simulation;
and safety and trust.
