One Object Path
Cooperative tool targets come from one object trajectory and controlled grasp transforms.
About KenCorp
Autonomous systems for orbital infrastructure.
KenCorp Aerospace Systems LLC develops cooperative robotic systems for constructing, installing, and maintaining infrastructure in space.
Company Profile
Coordinated machines for work that one vehicle should not do alone.
KenCorp approaches in-space work as a complete systems problem. Mobility, docking, manipulation, sensing, mission logic, interfaces, and evidence have to agree before a robotic team can share a load safely.
The company's work centers on STELLIFEX, a cooperative orbital robotics architecture that uses multiple independent Worker Units, prepared worksite interfaces, and a shared coordination layer.
Program Orientation
Primary Program
STELLIFEX
Cooperative orbital robotics for assembly, installation, and maintenance.
Program overview
Current Maturity
Simulation-Validated
The unified architecture is advancing toward a measured two-Worker ground demonstration.
Operating Principles
Clear constraints. Shared geometry. Evidence before claims.
Physical Anchoring
Manipulation begins only after the worksite connections and readiness conditions are verified.
Gated Autonomy
Every hazardous phase change depends on valid state, contact, latch, load, and estimator checks.
Retained Failures
Results keep failed cases, stop reasons, transient loads, and denominator definitions visible.
Current Focus
STELLIFEX is the active center of the engineering program.
The architecture is simulation-validated and is advancing toward a measured physical demonstration. Current work is about closing the gap between controlled multibody simulation and credible ground hardware evidence.
Cooperative Robotics
Multiple mobile robots coordinating around shared objects, common frames, and known interfaces.
Autonomous Mission Execution
Condition-gated mobility, docking, acquisition, manipulation, release, and safe departure logic.
Physical Demonstration
Component characterization followed by an integrated two-Worker task with independent pose and load measurement.
