The Building of a Space Station
This will be a virtual software simulation project for an in orbit assembly of a small space station by the use of two robots using patented extrusions.
To lend some credence to this projet, our parent corporation, Triakis, has built two simulation projects for NASA:
We have experience simulating subsystems for spacecraft. e.g. Reaction Wheels, Thrusters, Star Traker, Mil1553 Comm, Solar Power, Ground Comm, and much more.
Note: Triakis simulators are used for software verification of aircraft systems.
Triakis has documented three stages of system development:
1. Executable Specifications (ES). Executes the high level electro/mechanical/software system requirements.
2. Pseudo Processor - refines the ES by running the native (NASA) C/C++ embedded source code by intercepting memory accesses and rtos functions.
3. Detailed executable - runs the binary using a model of the cpu, e.g. ARM.
We propose two Robots: RobInTernal and RobExTernal. Robin and Robex.
RobInTernal shall insert conduits, tables, beds, drawers, etc. from inside the Space Station (or structure).
RobExTenal shall build the Space Station from the outside.
The fidelity of this simulation will depend upon how much time we have to work on it. So, this model will not have cnc milled parts designed by professional mechanical engineers or anything ready to be made in reality. But finite element analysis will made on the strength of extrusion materials.
This project delayed by US emergency situation.
