Quasi-Wireless Capacitive Power Transfer with Secure Data Acquisition for Robotic Systems in Space Infrastructure

Space exploration is dependent on robotic systems that utilize end effectors to collect samples, probe surfaces, and manipulate objects. These systems can rarely be designed to do all three, forcing engineers to make tradeoffs based on the mission parameters - i.e. should the robotic appendage have a claw, drill, or shovel, and which would be best suited for the mission? Additionally, as more indu...
