Thiruvananthapuram, Oct. 14 -- Kerala-based Genrobotics Innovations has secured a contract from the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to develop a high-precision robotic boom arm for satellite missions, marking a major expansion of its operations into advanced space engineering.

The project, awarded by ISRO's U R Rao Satellite Centre (URSC), involves the indigenous development of an articulated mechanism for deploying and precisely orienting reflectors on satellite decks.

Genrobotics' Space and Advanced Robotics division will develop a multi-link boom arm designed to withstand the mechanical stresses of launch and operate under the extreme thermal and vacuum conditions of space. The system will enable precise positioning of commun...
