Abstract
Research into new design methods for reconfigurable systems is being carried out at the National Research Council of Canada. In this paper, a re-configurable parallel robot is presented. Though the initial design was to develop a compact manufacturing cell, its re-configurable features may be valuable. Hence, we present this paper for the purpose of exploring its space applications. The presented system is constructed by two modular units. The first one is called slide, made of a three-DOF prismatic joint system with fixed-leg length. The second is called swing, made of a three-DOF revolute joint system. While the slide is fixed to the moving platform, the swing is detachable from the moving platform by utilizing magnetic joints. Such a design allows varying topology that can be re -configured to perform multi-mode tasks with emergency behaviors. These features may be attractive to space applications.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
