Abstract

The Chinese experimental space system for on-orbit robotistic services (CESSORS) is to be developed by Shenzhen Space Technology Center. CESSORS consists of two satellites and a mounted robotic manipulator. In this paper, the design of the two satellites and the manipulator is described in detail, as well as the target detecting system and the ground teleoperation system. The planned missions include calibration of robot manipulator, teleoperation of the manipulator, coordinated control, on-orbit robotistic services, on-orbit target chasing and approaching, and flying around inspection. This paper introduces the components of CESSORS, and shows the on-orbit missions
