DESCRIPTION

RAMA is an Other from InspeCity. It is built for Material-Handling, Research, Inspection.

RAMA (Remotely Actuated Motorized Arm) is a robotic arm that InspeCity is developing for in-orbit satellite servicing. It is designed to carry out targeted repairs and diagnostics on satellites in orbit so that operators can extend a satellite's life instead of replacing it. The arm has a multi-degree-of-freedom design with integrated sensors and an end-effector gripper, and it works as part of InspeCity's servicing architecture. The VEDA servicing vehicle, driven by GITA green propulsion, carries RAMA and the RIG autonomous docking unit to a client satellite; the CHAKSU AI tracking sensor guides the approach and docking, and RAMA then handles the target spacecraft. The company's renders show a servicer spacecraft with a pair of articulated arms reaching for a smaller satellite. InspeCity lists RAMA among the systems it developed between 2023 and 2025. No specifications, flight dates or customers have been published. The company says its 2026 funding will pay for four in-orbit missions over about 18 months to demonstrate robotics, docking and refuelling alongside its propulsion and sensing systems.
