ISAAC: An Integrated System for Autonomous and Adaptive Caretaking
Abstract
The Integrated System for Autonomous and Adaptive Caretaking (ISAAC) project is developing technology for autonomous caretaking of spacecraft, primarily during uncrewed mission phases. ISAAC aims to integrate autonomous intra-vehicular robots (IVR) with spacecraft infrastructure (power, life support, etc.) and ground control. It focuses on capabilities required for NASA’s Gateway cis-lunar outpost that also apply to human missions to Mars and beyond. Its development strategy is to test using existing IVR on the ISS (the Astrobee free-flyer and Robonaut dextrous manipulator) as an analog for future IVR on Gateway.
