SSL to Supply Robotic Arms for DARPA Satellite Servicing
The contract is for two complete robotic arm systems, which would be able to carefully capture and berth with satellites that were not previously designed for docking. The robotic arms would each have multiple joints enabling dexterous movement and could carry and use multiple generic and mission-specific tools.
Robotic satellite servicing is going to be a very interesting (and huge) segment of the industry to watch.
