Dextre I. II. Robonaut III. Mars Exploration Rovers IV. SmartNav
Dextre Jobs include moving small payloads, tasks including some so delicate they have needed a human touch until now and swapping out worn or damaged parts. Once operators get used to working with the robot, it could eliminate 6 to 12 spacewalks each year
Dextres utility seven joints in each arm High Dof End effectors has different robotic tools hands are two parallel clamps with a vice-like grip and an internal motorized socket wrench that can loosen or tighten standard bolts on the station lights and black-and-white cameras on each hand, as well as pan-and-tilt color cameras on the body. back
Features currently is only an upper body. NASA hopes to send legs for the robot sometime in 2011 It is three feet four inches tall and weighs 330 pounds It will be able to do the cleaning and many repairs. It is also immune to the extreme heat and cold that can often be a part of space travel. back Use same tools that station crew members use
NASA will launch the first human-like robot to space later this year to become a permanent resident of the International Space Station. Robonaut 2 photograph Robonaut 2, or R2, was developed jointly by NASA and General Motors under a cooperative agreement to develop a robotic assistant that can work alongside humans, whether they are astronauts in space or workers at GM manufacturing plants on Earth.
NASA's twin robot geologists, the Mars Exploration Rovers, launched toward Mars on June 10 and July 7, 2003, in search of answers about the history of water on Mars. scientific goals is to search for and characterize a wide range of rocks and soils that hold clues to past water activity on Mars Both rovers have made important discoveries about wet environments on ancient Mars that may have been favorable for supporting microbial life. back
SmartNav The 'SmartNav' robot being developed for the ISRO It will help space scientists to navigate moon's surface during the manned moon mission and provide real- time data and pictures of the surface there.
The two-legged robot, fitted with sophisticated sensors and high-resolution cameras, is capable of recording information and images using laser beams. the device would help the ISRO immensely during the Chandrayan-II Moon Mission in 2011.
