— This article introduces a new technique for planning reactionless paths to a point in Cartesian space, for manipulators mounted on a free-floating satellite. It is based on de...
During the Mars Exploration Rovers (MER) landings, the Descent Image Motion Estimation System (DIMES) was used for horizontal velocity estimation. The DIMES algorithm combines mea...
In free-floating mode, space manipulator systems have their actuators turned off, and exhibit nonholonomic behavior due to angular momentum conservation. The system is underactua...
