Caracol has reached TRL 3 after a nine-month project with the European Space Agency, advancing autonomous robotic 3D printing in orbit. The AIMIS-LFAM system uses AI and multi-sensor monitoring to detect defects in real-time without human intervention. This enables the construction of massive structures like solar arrays, bypassing launch fairing limits. Reaching TRL 6 will shift space logistics from shipping finished parts to launching raw materials for assembly. #3DPrinting #SpaceTech #LFAM #Caracol #ESA
