Motiv Space Systems and PickNik Robotics Collaborate on Software for NASA’s Fly Foundational Robotics (FFR) Mission ...

The space industry is entering a new era—one where satellites and orbital infrastructure won’t simply be launched, used, and abandoned.

In a quiet corner of the International Space Station, far from the bustle of experiments and Earth communications, three small robotic cubes drift through the air like hummingbirds in slow motion.

For the mission, Motiv will be developing the robotic system, while PickNik will provide robot motion planning and arm control software.

During the demonstration, NASA engineers used vision-language models, or VLMs, to create waypoints on Mars for Perseverance.
