9. Space Robot Perception System

Space robots involve different operating objects and operating environments while performing missions. For example, for on-orbit servicing robots, the operating objects are mostly cooperative targets with the preset visual markers and dedicated operation interfaces, and the operating environment is a spacecraft surface structured environment, while for planetary exploration robots, the operating objects are mostly noncooperative targets without visual markers or dedicated operation interfaces, and the environment features are unknown and unstructured. Space robot perception refers to the process in which the space robot obtains the information of the operating objects and the operating environments by analyzing raw data generated by various sensors onboard.
