GROUND SIMULATION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR ON-ORBIT MANIPULATION OF SPACE MANIPULATOR
A ground simulation device and method for an on-orbit manipulation of a space manipulator is provided. The ground simulation device includes: a dual-arm robot, configured to simulate the space manipulator operating a target object; a suspension device, including a fixed post and passive rods, where the passive rods are movably connected with a top end of the fixed post, and the target object is suspended to the passive rods; and a simulation platform, configured to fix the dual-arm robot and the suspension device thereon. The ground simulation device provides the passive rods on the suspension device and suspends the target object to the passive rods, thus overcoming the gravity of the target object. In addition, the passive rods can drive the target object to move under an influence of an external force, achieving a similar suspension effect to that in space, and providing a desired, safe, and reliable implementation effect.

MULTIMODAL SHARED TELEROBOTIC SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THREE-ARM SPACE ROBOT
A multimodal shared telerobotic system and method for a three-arm space robot, the system at least includes a local-site system, a communication module, and a remote-site system, where the local-site system includes two force-feedback haptic devices for left and right hands, a microphone array, and upper computer software; the remote-site system includes two robotic arms provided with end-effectors, an observation arm with a stereo camera installed at an end thereof, two force sensors, a vision unit and lower computer software; an operator can control the two robotic arms of the robot outside a cabin for performing operations, and control the observation arm to obtain a better local view; and a multimodal telerobotic control method of pose control, voice control, and force control is integrated with the robot's autonomous control through a shared control algorithm.
Controlling a robot to remedy a problem
A robot intelligence engine receives highly immersive virtual environment (HIVE) data characterizing a set of robot tasks executed by a test robot in a HIVE, wherein the robot tasks of the set of robot tasks include a robot skill. The robot intelligence engine receives sensor data from a problem detecting robot deployed in an environment of operation that characterizes conditions corresponding to a detected problem and searches the set of robot tasks to identify a subset of the robot tasks that are potentially employable to remedy the detected problem. The robot intelligence engine simulates the subset of robot tasks to determine a likelihood of success for the subset of robot tasks. The simulation generates a set of unsupervised robot tasks that are potentially employable to remedy the detected problem. The robot intelligence engine selects one of the subset of robot tasks or one of the unsupervised robot tasks.
