Recently, CNN Science and Technology showed a prototype of a robot
designed to grab satellites in space. The robot was developed at MIT and
sponsored by NASA. I am interested in finding more information about the
mechanism of the robot, particularly the tactile sensors that form the
inner "skin" of the robot's "hand". If anyone has any information as to
who to contact, or of any publication that might offer information about
the above robot, I would appreciate receiving it via e-mail. Thank you.
