    Background

    Zero Robotics is a robotics challenge where students have the opportunity to utilize the International Space Station as a laboratory to test programming codes from the ground using Synchronized, Position, Hold, Engage, Reorient Experimental Satellites (SPHERES). The program, led by MIT, is aimed at engaging students in innovative, complementary learning opportunities, as well as increasing student interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. NASA joined the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), the European Space Agency, the Center for the Advancement of Science in Space and IT consulting firm Appirio in hosting the live microgravity competition.

    NASA’s SPHERES program – Synchronized Position Hold, Engage, Reorient, Experimental Satellites --consist of three free flying vehicles inside the International Space Station identifiable by their shell colors of Red, Blue, and Orange. Initially the SPHERES were designed for testing of control theory algorithms. The Satellites are about the size and mass of a bowling ball and use cold gas thrusters (CO2) to propel the vehicles around a fixed experimental volume. The SPHERES program currently operates out of the Japanese Experimental Module (JEM) inside Station. SPHERES uses ultrasound beacons as a metrology system to identify its position in conjunction with accelerometers, and gyroscopes.

    Challenge

    Zero Robotics is a robotics programming competition that starts online with teams programming a space bot (called SPHERES) to solve problems onboard the International Space Station. An astronaut conducts the competition in zero g with a live broadcast for viewers back home on planet Earth.

    We want you to create your own Earth-based robotics competition: build a robot, program it, and create your own competition with friends, co-workers, and/or members of your community. You can choose do any or all of these steps, or build an app to simulate Zero Robotics competition on your mobile device. Surprise us.

    Or, you can design an app that helps you better understand, practice, compete, or receive timely updates on intermediate and final competition results? Or, you can create a smartphone app to simulate a SPHERE in NASA’s zero robotics challenge so that you can rely on more than just your software simulation to develop your strategy.

    Considerations

    You can tackle any or all of the following:
    • Create your own Earth-based robotics competition: build a robot, program it, and create your own competition with friends, co-workers, and/or members of your community;
    • Build an app to simulate Zero Robotics competition on your mobile device;
    • Build an app to participate in Zero Robotics – understand, practice, compete, or receive updates; and/or
    • Create a smartphone app to simulate a SPHERE robot on the International Space Station.
