KULR selected to power Icarus Robotics JOY free-flyer for ISS mission

Jul 15, 2026 · Partnership · KULR Technology Group · Power Systems

Icarus Robotics selected KULR to supply the flight-ready energy system for JOY, an autonomous embodied-AI free-flying robot planned for an International Space Station mission.

  • JOY is designed to navigate inside pressurised space habitats and perform useful work with autonomous free-flight and dexterous manipulation.
  • The selection combines KULR space-qualified energy-system engineering with Icarus Robotics embodied-AI robotics.
  • The programme is intended to establish flight heritage for autonomous robotic labour and infrastructure support in orbit.

KULR Technology Group develops battery design, testing, production, thermal-management, vibration-mitigation, and energy-storage technologies for aerospace, defense, space, robotics, drone, electric-aviation, and mission-critical systems.
