Modeling and Simulation of Satellite Servicing Manipulators

Final Project for the course ENPM662: Introduction to Robot Modeling (Fall 2021).

The aim of this project was to simulate the European Robotic Arm (ERA) in an outer space like environment using ROS and Gazebo. The CAD model for the satellite was taken from GrabCAD and modified to suit our requirements. All credits go to the respective author of the satellite CAD model.

European Robotic Arm (ERA) 1

Satellite + Manipulator CAD Model

All the SolidWorks CAD files of the Satellite Servicing assembly are in the /CAD directory.

Demos

  • Servicing manipulator (background) cutting through the surface of the broken satellite (foreground).

  • Servicing manipulator (background) being controlled through teleoperation (with time-delay)
