GITAI：开发机械臂：ISS，以提高工作效率
GITAI：
GITAI是东京的一家风险投资公司。
研发的机械手将安装在空间站内。
确认实验最早将于明年春季开始。
机械臂：
由“ GITAI”开发的大约1米长的机械臂。
除了根据程序自动移动
它也可以从地面远程操作。
也，
用手臂的尖端按下面板开关，
检查更换电缆的操作，
在零重力下连续执行多个运动，
我们还将进行组装太阳能电池板的实验。

GITAI and Nanoracks announce technical demonstration of a GITAI robot
inside the Bishop Airlock

tasks inside the Nanoracks Bishop Airlock (recorded in the ISS mock up facility@GITAI Tokyo office)
In 2021, space robotics start-up GITAI, in collaboration with Nanoracks,
will conduct a technical demonstration of a GITAI robot executing versatile tasks inside the Nanoracks’ Bishop airlock module installed on Node 3 of the International Space Station (ISS).
In this technical demonstration, GITAI’s space robot “S1” will be installed inside Bishop’s pressurized volume to conduct two experiments:
IVA (Intra-Vehicular Activity) tasks such as switch and cable operations, and
assembly of structures and panels
to demonstrate its capability for ISA (In-Space Assembly).
All operations conducted by the S1 GITAI robotic arm will be autonomous, followed by some teleoperations from Nanoracks’ in-house mission control.
GITAI
is managing the technical development of the S1 space robotic arm.
Nanoracks
is providing the launch opportunity, managing on-orbit operations, and data downlink.
Nanoracks is providing this launch opportunity to the ISS via their Space Act Agreement with NASA.
