PINGU: Extending Air-Bearing Spacecraft Emulators with Open-Source Actuators and Learned Control for Contact-Rich Proximity Operations

Low-cost planar air-bearing testbeds have matured into a standard proxy for free-flying spacecraft GNC, but they remain largely thruster-only and are rarely equipped for contact-rich, inertia-coupled manipulation. Building on the open-source ATMOS testbed, we contribute a reaction wheel and two force/torque-sensed robo...

SCoCaT: Success Conditioned Constrained Reinforcement Learning for Spacecraft Docking

This work identifies a structural failure mode of this method class on terminal-navigation tasks: reaching a precise goal configuration while satisfying safety constraints that tighten along the final approach, and empirically demonstrates that adding a dense per-step success signal via an auxiliary value critic improv...
