Energid Technologies Corporation has been funded by the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop a new robot simulation that accommodates uncertainty and discovers exceptional behaviors during mission planning.
Astrobotic Technology, in partnership with NASA under the Lunar CATALYST initiative, has developed a preliminary version of its flight software for precision guidance. This software will direct the Griffin lander to safe touchdown on the Moon at a pit in the Lacus Mortis region on Astrobotic's first mission. Astrobotic developed the software using NASA's Core Flight Software (CFS), then validated Griffin's mission performance and fuel usage using NASA-proven modeling and simulation tools.
About 42 miles southwest of San Francisco and 2,600 feet underwater sits the U.S.S. Independence, a bombed-out relic from World War II. The aircraft carrier was a target ship in atomic weapon tests at Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands during the war. Then, in 1951, it was loaded up with 55-gallon drums of low-level radioactive waste and scuttled just south of the Farallon National Wildlife Refuge off the California coast.
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Autopilot System Market by Platform, by Component, by Application, by Geography, Do It Yourself Autopilot - Forecasts & Analysis (2014-2020)" report to their offering.

NASA has awarded $100,000 in prize money to the Mountaineers, a team from West Virginia University, Morgantown, for successfully completing Level 2 of the Sample Return Robot Challenge, part of the agency's Centennial Challenges prize program.
Twenty robotics teams, ranging from university students to small businesses, are preparing to compete June 8-13 in the fourth running of the NASA Sample Return Robot Challenge for a prize purse of $1.5 million.
The University of Alabama is used to having teams that win national championships. Alabama Astrobotics, a robotics team made up of Shelton State and UA students, added a different kind of title to the University’s tally with its recent performance at this year’s Robotic Mining Competition hosted
by NASA.
Medigus Ltd., a medical device company developing minimally invasive endosurgical tools and a leader in direct visualization technology, announced today that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded them with an additional supply order of Medigus' micro ScoutCamTM technology, consisting of specially designed miniature video cameras and advance video processing equipment, for use on NASA's Robotic Refueling Mission (RRM).
It was unprecedented developing a mission that could fly four identically equipped spacecraft in a tight formation and take measurements 100 times faster than any previous space mission -- an achievement enabled in part by four NASA-developed technologies that in some cases took nearly 10 years to mature.
