ACRobot Zero Gravity Mobility

ACRobot (Adhesive Climbing Robot) uses two pairs of directional gecko adhesive pads aligned in opposition to generate adhesion to surfaces in any gravitational orientation or in full zero gravity. This video shows successful climbing tests (sped up 24x) in micro-gravity aboard NASA's Vomit Comet Flights.

ACRobot is a prototype designed for inspection applications on the International Space Station.
