Research in the area of berthing of Orbital Replacement Units (ORU's) at the GSFC consists of two major parts. First, we concentrate on the development of a comprehensive fastening strategy that can provide both mechanical as well as electrical connection to the ORU. Second, our efforts in robot collision avoidance and motion planning have led to the development of a state-of-the-art capacitive proximity sensor with associated motion control algorithms. These efforts combine to produce a system that allows safe and reliable machine assisted berthing. Although our main emphasis was on berthing of ORU's, we believe that some of our results can also be applied to docking.
