Congratulations to ASLer Abhishek Cauligi for successfully defending his PhD thesis today! @ACauligi's work demonstrates how data-driven approaches can accelerate Mixed Integer Convex Programming. This enables high-quality real-time control of space robots!

In this image, @AstroVicGlover works with an Astrobee robot to test a mechanical adhesive technology inspired by gecko feet on the @Space_Station. Dubbed the gecko gripper, this device allows robots to grab onto surfaces and then detach on demand. go.nasa.gov/3bHcatm

Friends in high places. Stanford researchers sent a robotic gripper, which mimics Gecko feet and could be well-suited for cleaning up space junk, to the International @Space_Station for testing. On board to help: Stanford alumna and @NASA astronaut Kate Rubins, PhD ’06.

We’ve got a grip! @AstroVicGlover helped Honey, one of our free-flying Astrobee 🤖 robots, test a new adhesive tech called the gecko gripper. The device will give the robotic assistants the ability to take on even more tasks aboard the @Space_Station: go.nasa.gov/3wl54CN

Honey had a lot of…sticktoitiveness!
